Our Atlanta Datacenter is located in one of the 2 main Telco Hotel vaults in Atlanta.

Our Scranton Datacenter is the only major data center/co-lo facility within 75 miles of the Tier-3 Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, PA USA Metro Area..

Both of our Data Centers features high level security, raised flooring, climate-control, UPS power supply, fire suppression system as well as multiple redundant connections to major backbones such as AboveNet, Verio, Williams, UUNET, Level3, Sprint and Verizon. The Data Centers are also equipped with backup batteries and diesel generators, Cisco routers and switches; and are staffed 24x7 by qualified system administrators and engineers. All servers are secured in a state of the art Smart POP; monitored by both on hand technicians, IP cameras and door security via Hand geometry reader; OC3C connections are physically diverse and Sonet protected; dual power feeds backed up with UPS, Rectifiers, Batteries and Generator to ensure our customers have near zero down time. Our Data Centers uses industry-standard SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and provides round-the-clock monitoring of all hardware, including routers, switches, UPS systems, and servers. The Data Centers also monitors power, environmental factors (such as temperature and humidity), generator status, and network connectivity. All critical services/ports are monitored, including FTP, HTTP, SMTP, HTTPS, SSH and POP3.

What is BGP4 and how does it work?
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is a protocol for exchanging routing information between gateway hosts (each with its own router) in a network of autonomous systems. BGP is often the protocol used between gateway hosts on the Internet. The routing table contains a list of known routers, the addresses they can reach, and a cost metric associated with the path to each router so that the best available route is chosen.

Hosts using BGP communicate using the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and send updated router table information only when one host has detected a change. Only the affected part of the routing table is sent. BGP-4, the latest version, lets administrators configure cost metrics based on policy statements. (BGP-4 is sometimes called BGP4, without the hyphen.)

BGP communicates with autonomous (local) networks using Internal BGP (IBGP) since it doesn't work well with IGP. The routers inside the autonomous network thus maintain two routing tables: one for the interior gateway protocol and one for IBGP. BGP-4 makes it easy to use Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR), which is a way to have more addresses within the network than with the current IP address assignment scheme.

Data Center Features:

Security System: Keeping your server secure is our number one priority. Our datacenter is monitored 24/7 by our security station in the lobby. Our guards are required to make routine physical checks of essential systems and perimeter entrances.

Backup Power Generators: The building is supplied with double power feeds from the utility company. In the event of a power outage, the data center is equipped with a 750 KVA diesel generator. The generator is tested every week. When a power outage is detected, the generator will start automatically within 15 seconds. With one tank of gas in the generator, it can power 10000 servers for 72hours. Fuel can be added to keep the network up and running indefinitely.

The data center also uses Powerware power conditioning units and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). This UPS has been installed to constantly monitor and regulate the quality of power coming from the wall so that equipment always receives the clean 120-volt power it was designed for.

Cables: Through combining bundles of fiber optics with the redundant network engineering, we're able create alternate routes through which data can travel. This effectively maximizes the throughput speed and capacity of each strand of fiber-optic cable. The result is an ultra-fast, ultra-reliable network connection on which you and your customer can rely on.

Technical Support: Our customer technical support center knows no time zone and no time limits. No matter where you are or at what time, our chat, support email system ticketing system gives you access to technical support 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Feel free to email our support with any network related questions you may have.
