Network
Features
Connectivity
We have Backbone
connectivity from Various Providers like XO, FNSI, CMH-IX, Level 3
and UUNET. Total Connectivity of our Network is of 1290 Mbps.The
network has been engineered from the ground up to accommodate the
high-availability demands of the internet's most popular websites.
The datacenter and network have been optimized for outsourcing web
servers.
We utilize
connections to multiple backbones to ensure that data reaches the
end-user in the fastest, most efficient manner possible. We also
have peering agreements with local ISPs to allow fast delivery of
packets when possible.
BGP4
Routing
Our Network runs
the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP4) for best case routing. Our
entirely switched, Cisco powered network employs Cisco GSR 12000
class routers running HSRP (N+1 hot failover) to ensure that data
can be routed even in the event of a router failure. The BGP4
protocol is a standard that allows for the routing of packets of
information sent out from our Network. Each packet of information
is evaluated and sent over the best route possible. Because of our
redundant network architecture, packets may be sent via
alternative routes even if they are being delivered to the same
end user. Should one of our providers fail, packets leaving our
network are automatically redirected through another route via a
different provider.
Guaranteed
packet Delivery
We pay our
providers to make sure that packets of information are delivered
to the end user's eyeballs. This offers significant advantages
over simply peering with the major backbones. Peering agreements
rarely include Service Level Agreements (SLAs) so no one is
accountable for lost packets at congested exchange points. Because
we actually have SLAs with all our providers, we are able to
guarantee that all packets will leave our network at full speed.
Bandwidth
Utilization
Our Network
currently has plenty of excess capacity, even during peak hours.
This allows for us to accommodate even the largest spikes in
traffic that are often associated with the most popular Web sites.
We are always adding network connectivity and new routes in an
effort to make sure content is delivered to your users as
efficiently as possible. Low bandwidth utilization also allows for
maximum uptime, even if one of our providers has an outage ...just
another reason to outsource your server to us.
