Cisco Powered Network
Every server is connected to a 100% Cisco Powered Network. Using enterprise-class Cisco networking gear, all routers, layer-2 switches, and layer-3 switches are tested in labs prior to deployment to ensure stability and interoperability.

Redundant High Bandwidth Connectivity
Using multiple Tier 1 Service Providers, we provide 99.9% server uptime and ensure the highest degree of security against network downtime and the fastest possible data transfers.

Bandwidth Utilization
It is a common misconception that the amounts of bandwidth (size of the pipes that carry the data) differentiate web hosting companies. In reality it is not only the size of the pipes that matters, it is the utilization levels. The utilization of our Internet connections is vital to a network's ability to transfer data without packet loss or latency. Our data center aims to keep all connection usage below 50% to avoid any connectivity problems.

Dynamic Routing
The data center we use runs the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP4) for best case routing. The BGP4 protocol is a standard that allows for the routing of packets of information sent out from the 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.

Network Security
The data center network is a fully switched network. Traffic destined for a website hosted on a server is sent only through switching equipment necessary to deliver the information to that server. This minimizes the risk of someone sniffing or capturing traffic being sent across the network. Furthermore, the data center vigorously prosecutes persons who generate malicious attacks on the internal network.

The data centers, located in San Antonio, Texas and northern Virginia, have been built from the ground up to provide powerful connections to our carriers to ensure that we meet our 99.9% server uptime.

Regulated Climate Control
The data centers' HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) systems are N+1 redundant. With full particle filtering and humidity control, the environment is maintained at a cool 68 degrees to ensure a comfortable environment for your server.

Power Systems
The data center is not reliant upon the local power grid to guarantee maximum uptime. The on-site, auto-switched power generator, and centralized UPS systems provide power conditioning and ensure uninterrupted data center operation. Additionally, the generators are regularly tested to ensure that it will continue to function in the event of an emergency

Datacenter Security
The data centers are physically isolated from everyone but level three technicians. Public access is strictly forbidden. Access to the floor the datacenter resides on is restricted and completely locked down.

Locations
San Antonio , Texas is known for the absence of natural disasters and is on the most seismically stable soil in the US . Additionally, since San Antonio is free from natural disasters, the data center is in the perfect location for your server.
