The
Building |
|
The physical environment
necessary to keep the servers up and running 24
hours a day, 7 days a week is provided by
Hostcentric's Internet Data Centers ETECH SYSTEMS uses a data center located on the West Coast of the USA. The building is a
class A, state of the art facility datacenter
which is earthquake proof. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
Redundant High Bandwidth
Connectivity |
|
The WestCoast Data Center is
owned by WebHostcenctric, located at Fremont,
CA. The network capacity exceeds 2.5 Gigs of
Internet connectivity via DS3, OC3, OC12, and
Gigabit Ethernet connections to a wide variety
of peer points and several transit providers.
The circuits are terminated in our data center
on carrier class, Cisco Systems 12000
routers. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
Conditioned
power |
|
Power quality in the datacenter
is ensured by multiple independent Liebert UPS
systems. Should the utility power fail, the
mission critical electrical loads at the
datacenter are provided by the Liebert UPS
systems, which are configured with automatic
static bypass and manually operated
full-maintenance bypass circuits. Each UPS
module has its own DC battery bank with
sufficient capacity to sustain its critical bus
for periods exceeding 20 minutes without
additional power supply from utility or
generator sources. |
Standby generator: The
electrical utility service (PG&E) is backed
up via a stand-by diesel power generator
activated by an Onan automatic transfer switch.
The generator is a 750 KW Cummins-Onan, with
sufficient on-site fuel to run continuously for
over 24 hours. |

 |
Network
Security |
|
The ETECH SYSTEMS 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 hacking the traffic
being sent across the network. |
Our data center, was built from
the ground up and is equipped with various high
capacity connections to multiple carriers to
ensure uptime and speed consistency and
redundancy. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
Regulated Climate Control |
|
The data center's HVAC (Heating
Ventilation Air Conditioning) system is N+1
redundant. With full particle filtering and
humidity control, the environment is maintained
at a cool 68° F to ensure a comfortable
environment for our servers. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
The
Network |
|
As a Tier 1 ISP,
WebHostcenctric has established extensive public
and private peering relationships. Peer points
currently include the Pacific Bell NAP and Palo
Alto Internet Exchange. BGP4 is used for optimal
route selection and automatic fail
over. |
Network bandwidth is carefully
monitored to ensure that customer utilization
does not exceed online capacity during peak
Internet traffic times. |
Our datacenter "Cisco Powered
Network" relies on redundant Cisco 12000 series
routers and 6500 series switches at its core,
and can be made fully redundant all the way down
to the customer server. |
Dual core routers at the top
layer connect to a layer-three, switched
backbone. This switching fabric connects to a
layer two distribution switch infrastructure
that in turn connects to a bandwidth managing
"Officer". The bandwidth manager controls
traffic from multiple layer two switches mounted
on the customer's rack that are connected to
individual servers. For additional redundancy,
customers may be dual homed by purchasing an
additional Ethernet port and diverse cabling
that terminates on a second
switch. |
WebHostcenctric Officers
provide traffic graphing and sophisticated
bandwidth management. To monitor their packet
traffic customers are provided with one
bandwidth graph per Internet uplink
connection. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
Uptime |
|
Hostcentric network operation
centers are staffed 24 hours per day, 7 days
each week by skilled technicians.
Industry-leading service level agreements
highlight company guarantees like 100% network
uptime. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
Server hardware |
|
The servers we are using are
Dual P4/Xeon at least 2.6 GHz with 1.5 or 2 GB
memory, SCSI hard drives in RAID and backups.
Each server is using a gigabit network
card. |
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
Standby
Servers |
|
We keep spare servers on-line
of all CPU configurations. If a server were to
experience a hardware failure, we would turn a
key, grab the handle on the drive, pull it out,
and insert it into an identical standby CPU. We
would then reboot the second machine and the
server would be up and running again in a matter
of minutes. |
