Our shared servers are housed in one of the best facilities in the world and connected to the internet backbone via quality providers. All servers are heavily monitored around the clock to ensure superior uptime and performance.
Connectivity
The data center utilizes connections to multiple backbones to ensure
that data reaches the end-user in the fastest, most efficient manner
possible. Network providers include MetroIX, InterMAP, Genuity and
UUNET. There are also peering agreements with local ISPs to allow
fast delivery of packets when possible.
Physical Security
The data center is physically isolated from everyone but level three
technicians. Public access is strictly forbidden. Access to the
floor the data center resides on is restricted to those holding
Rackspace military-grade passcards. Furthermore, access to the data
center itself is restricted by Biometric hand scanners.
Conditioned Power
Power systems in the data center are designed to run uninterrupted
even in the unlikely event of a total power outage. All servers
are fed with conditioned UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) power
that will run if utility power fails. The UPS power subsystem is
N+1 redundant with instantaneous failover in case the primary UPS
fails. In the event of an extended power outage, an on-site diesel
generator can run indefinitely. The generator is regularly tested
to ensure that it will continue to function in the event of an emergency.
A Precision Enviroment
The data center is meticulously tidy. All air is circulated and
filtered every 90 seconds to remove dust and contaminants. The data
center's HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) system is N+1
redundant to ensure that - even in the event of an entire HVAC system
failure - there is a duplicate system on standby to take over. An
advanced fire-suppression system is in place to prevent any fire
from spreading - in the unlikely event that one could start. All
cables to servers and routing equipment are securely tied down,
and cable racks suspended from the ceiling provide dual routes for
all cables. In the event that all cables on a cable rack are cut
or burned, packets of data will automatically be routed to a second
set of cables on the other side of the data center.
Our "Unlimited Hosting" package is a red hot deal.
