Hosting
ADG utilizes state of the art co-location server facilitation
through Peer 1 Network. A state of the art Network Operations Centre
(NOC) is the focal point of the hosting facilities activities. This
exceptional facility, which is manned 24 hours per day, seven days
per week by both technical staff and security, monitors the entire
network and co-location space. The NOC also oversees all company
systems and equipment to provide enhanced downtime protection and
maximum network performance
|
The facilities have been specifically designed and constructed
as Internet co-location facilities, providing you with the most
suitable physical environment in which to house your servers. Each
facility has been pre-wired with 100 Base-T Cat5 wiring, enabling
a new customer's 100mb/sec Fast Ethernet connection to be fully
functional within a matter of minutes.
Each facility is fully outfitted with emergency generator power
that is available to all co-location customers. In addition to anti-static
flooring and pre-action systems for fire suppression, each of our
facilities is climate controlled using multiple air conditioning
units safeguarded by emergency generator power. Our facilities also
utilize distributed Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) so there
is never a possibility of downtime due to power outages.
|
Implemented procedures ensure that security, as well as the network,
is absolutely redundant. The Network Operations Centre (NOC) and
co-location facilities are patrolled round the clock by a private
security firm. Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) has been installed
in the Data Centre, and all access points are monitored continuously
by Network Operations staff.
ADG Staff have unescorted, round the clock access to their equipment
using personalized security access cards. Access to all doors is
monitored, recorded and time stamped on a card-by-card basis. Admittance
to the co-location facilities and adjacent co-location facility
is through a highly secure man trap, featuring both key card and
keypad access, monitored continuously by personnel and security
cameras.

100% Cisco powered internal network prioritizes high performance
and redundancy. State of the art, fault tolerant software utilizes
Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), guaranteeing that in the event
that a router or router port fails, the hot standby router will
take over within a maximum of 40 seconds
A high performance and redundant backbone network connects all Internet
Data Centres using multiple high-speed OCn lines. With the ever-growing
number of latency-sensitive applications such as Voice Over IP,
Video Streaming and Conferencing, and a multitude of other client
server applications, route diversity is a key component in ensuring
Internet connectivity is fast and always available.
Continuous monitoring of Internet bandwidth usage facilitates scaling
in anticipation of your needs. Bandwidth is consistently maintained
at five times our average sustained usage. The bottom line? There's
always more than enough bandwidth available, so your connection
is always up, and always fast.

ADG hosted servers are equipped with remote access and control
facilities that allow you or Appwares staff to monitor status and
bandwidth at all times. SNMP monitoring is used to provide accurate
bandwidth aggregates for each server.
