Information The Network Operations
Center (NOC) is served by two separate high-speed OC-48-capable
fiber optic connections and utilizes multiple Tier-1 Internet backbone
providers. The facility is fitted with waterless fire-suppression
systems, UPS and back-up generators, and environmental controls
to ensure high-quality, uninterrupted service. The NOC is continuously
monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We've taken several
crucial measures to make our world-class network infrastructure
reliable and secure:
Data
Center Tour
Imagine having the top 10 Tier
One Providers in 1 location. Now Imagine
have a routing technology that is smart enough to choose the best
route from one of the top 10 providers!
InterNAP makes this a reality with smart
routing and 10 Tier One Providers all in one location.
FastServers has created an innovative way
of using the existing Internet network infrastructure to route your
data and avoid the Internet's points of congestion. We utilize an
Overlay Network that is armed with intelligent routing technology
to get your data from point A to point B in the fastest, most reliable,
and least-congested path possible.
Unlike
some providers who randomly choose public NAPs or private peering
points, FastServers routing technology immediately sends customer
data out along the correct Internet backbone. For FastServers customers,
the optimizing effects of our proprietary network architecture and
advanced routing technologies dramatically boost performance.
Physical security for safeguarding
your site and data
The latest in camera systems monitors both interior and exterior
facilities around the clock. Access is limited to authorized personnel
only, and strictly enforced by electronic access cards, biometric
scanning, and guards.
Environmental control features for
maximum reliability
To reduce downtime, our centers feature advanced fire suppression
systems, surge suppression, specialized heat and smoke sensors,
separate fire zones below the floor and above the ceiling, raised
flooring for improved server environment, as well as temperature,
humidity, static and airborne particle controls.
Redundant systems to maximize your
connectivity and uptime
We build in redundancy to ensure that your site is open for business.
This includes Cisco routers, Layer 2 and 3 switches, our power system
generator in addition to our regular grid electrical power, and
our backbone. Each server is protected by our fire suppression system
and multiple air conditioning systems (HVAC: Heating Ventilation
Air Conditioning). In addition, we keep a supply of drives, network
cards, processors, motherboards and every other piece of equipment
that has even a remote chance of failure. We also use a multiple-SCSI
backup cluster system for data storage and recovery.
Unparalleled customer service support
for fast problem resolution
FastServers Network Operations Centers provide 24/7/365 monitoring
of our customers' servers, network status and our connectivity to
upstream backbone providers. Our expert technicians identify potential
issues and provide resolutions before any problems occur. With access
to servers from the monitor room, support and administration personnel
continually monitor systems, answer customer questions online and
on the telephone and troubleshoot any problems
