Datacenter Benefits

In-House |
Clear IT Datacenter Hosting |
| Power |
Reliant on the shared local grid to provide power. Outages likely in the event of bad weather, construction, or area blackouts. |
Dedicated power from two different grid segments, combined with an on-site power plant ensures that an outage never occurs. |
| Security |
Often, physical access is limited by a simple standard key lock. The local network is also shared by all employee computers, which can cause concern and require regular network monitoring and testing. |
The facility utilizes state of the art security technologies to protect your infrastructure; including two airlock style traps, biometric security at all entry points, 24x7x365 on-site security teams, controlled access lists, and video recording throughout. Even shipments to the facility require approval before they can be allowed in. |
| Uptime |
The dependency on local power and inhouse resources will reduce the total annual uptime considerably. While this does vary between organizations, the lack of 24×7 support, fully redundant power to the grid, industrial grade cooling, or a true datacenter design will at some point contribute to a system failure. |
We guarantee a 99.999% uptime for your systems throughout the year. This means that we allow only 6 seconds of unexpected downtime per week. |
| Scalability |
If you want to expand in-house, you’ll need to purchase new equipment, pay for the right expertise to perform the labor, worry about overall capacity on your network, etc. |
We’ve made it simple to grow. Should one of our client partners need additional storage, we simply make it available. Need more processing power for your private cloud? We’ll add another server. No outright purchases, just a simple monthly budget. |
| Support |
In-house support is limited by the availability of local staff, which is generally 8×5. |
Our IT team is working for you 24x7x365, easily reachable by a simple toll-free number. Need us at 1am? We’re so there – without extra charges. |
| Technology |
Aging technology is a plague in the SMB world, and it is hard for in-house resources to stay on top of the latest benefits available to their organization. |
Our servers are not only replaced every 2-3 years, but also are built using the best available components, utilizing cutting edge technologies such as Solid State Hard Drives. Combine this with our enterprise class data networks, best in class power distribution units, and state of the art monitoring – you know you are in good hands. |
| Presence |
From a local office, organizations have only a regional reach at best. Limited to a single carrier and reaching the internet over a shared local telco office restricts the ability to present a ture national or global presence. |
Gain access to dozens of facilities around the world, with network access available from over 100 different carriers. Whether you need to ensure presence in California or Japan, we have the resources to get you there. |
