Our system
engineers are on duty around the clock striving to constantly maintain our
servers and keep them up to date, and on-line working for you 100% of the time.
Our servers are housed in a safe, secure, climate controlled, multimillion
dollar Network Operations Center (NOC). The NOC is located in
a Class A building built from the ground up as a Data Center and connected to the Internet through multiple backbone providers. Our
Internet connections are multiple redundant using these backbones. We are
hardwired to these backbones directly from within the building for the ultimate in
reliability and speed. Our highly qualified team of system engineers are
alerted automatically if any server fails. Thanks to our state-of-the-art
backup systems and plug and play technology, they can usually repair or replace any
part or any server within minutes and get it back on-line quickly.
