We own all of our equipment
and none of it is leased. The photo you see above is the end
of one row of cabinets in our data center.
In fact, one of those servers could be yours!
Our equipment
is located in two independent data centers in downtown
Louisville, KY and a third data center in Brentwood, TN
(Nashville). Internet connectivity is provided via fiber
optics from multiple independent Tier 1 backbone providers
(AT&T, Qwest, & Level3) for a total of 1.7Gb/sec bandwidth.
The data centers in Louisville are connected via private
fiber and the data centers in Louisville and Nashville are
connected via VPL.
Internet connectivity
is provided via multiple redundant Carrier Class OC48 Sonet rings and
delivered to your server across our all Cisco fiber optic
private network. Our GSP partners of choice for global IP
connectivity are Level3, Global Crossing, Cinergy and
TelCove.
Our equipment is powered
from
by redundant commercial UPS systems, backed up by
diesel generators and cooled to a constant 69° ( +/- 2°) by
redundant Liebert commercial A/C systems. Facility
security is provided by bio-metric fingerprint scanners,
limited card-key access and monitored 24 hours by both CCTV
surveillance and on-site security personnel. The entire
building is restricted access and closed to the general
public.
To maintain consistency,
reliability and simplicity in maintenance, each cabinet is
configured with identical power, network and KVM systems.
Each redundant server is connected to disparate power
distribution ports
and are managed remotely via IP, enabling us to reboot your server
in seconds instead of minutes in the unlikely event of a server
hang. |
