The Data Center provides On Demand IT Infrastructure supported
by
complete power redundancy, fire suppression, HVAC, network connectivity, and
security.
This facility is equipped to be there 24x7x365 utilizing:
-
Power systems at the data center are designed to run uninterrupted, and prepared
for the possibility of a total power outage. State-of-the-art N+1 power generator
architecture, in the event a generator fails, back up power systems have ample capacity
to keep the servers up and running.
-
In the case of a long term power outage, on-site diesel generators at the data center
will continue to run. Power generators receive regular preventative maintenance
to make sure they will stay online through out an emergency.
-
All servers have uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) ensuring continued uptime
in the event of a power failure. UPS's are on an N+1 redundant system with instant switchover
in the event of primary UPS failure.
-
The
Data Center HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning)
Systems are also
N+1 redundant so if the entire HVAC system
fails, a duplicate system is ready to handle the load.
-
The data center has advanced fire suppression systems to control
any fires and stop them from spreading..
-
Preventative
Maintenance at the Data Center is performed on a regular schedule
by highly trained personnel to meet or exceed manufacturers recommended
practices. This includes quarterly generator maintenance, quarterly UPS
maintenance plus battery testing, monthly HVAC maintenance.
The
Data Center has all the standard support systems
required by any modern facility. Electrical power
is provided by separate sub-stations.
With this superior power infrastructure, you can
be assured that power will never become an issue.
Other special points of interest specific to Data Center are:

100Mbps Direct Connection
to Gig-E Network
When it comes to network speed and bandwidth, Global Active is second to none. At 100 gigabits per second speed, Global Active
eliminates bandwidth issues achieving high volume, and providing near instant response for hosted applications.
Through the use of multiple Tier 1 telecom providers as well as direct Internet connections,
Global Active gets around transit networks thus shortening the network path between you and your customers. The result is
the fastest speeds possible, and unsurpassed reliability. So Global Active can provide you with the bandwidth, connectivity, and stability you won't find from any other provider.
Our Data Centers Bandwidth Providers are:
-
AboveNet
-
AT&T
-
Cogent
-
Global Crossing
-
Level 3
-
Savvis
-
Time Warner Telecom
-
Verio
Global Active provides the highest quality connectivity for businesses both large and small by:
-
Highest level network bandwidth in the industry capacity (100 gigabits/sec)
-
Using redundant, exceptional routing equipment. The network architecture excludes single points of failure with redundant core routers,
bandwidth provider diversity, and core distribution switches. If there is an equipment failure, the network will continue to perform at peak levels.
-
By purchasing bandwidth solely on Tier-1 providers, our customers function on a problem free network rather that experiencing slow or bad peering connections,
oversold and congested networks, and slow below par routing paths.
-
By having multiple bandwidth providers, outages beyond our network never cause outages the customers systems
-
Connecting straight to the backbone, skipping the transit networks, shortens the path between our servers, our customers sites, and the end-users computer.
This results in zero lag, and (nothing but net) fastest speeds in the industry.
