get 2 web hosting

How we choose our Network / DataCenter.

I have been designing web sites since 1997. Over the years I have built hundreds of
web sites. Some where hosted on my personal severs, some on remote hosting
DataCenters and some on my client's servers. A few years ago I decided to move all
my web sites to one Data Center close to my home. I had a 6 main criteria for my search:

1. All servers need the latest software and hardware.
   
2. All servers must have 24/7/365 certified system engineer support.
   
3. Server software must be able to support the H-Sphere control panel, which I regard
   as one of the best web control panel software programs today.
   
4. Security!
   
5. Multiple Backbones. (ways to access the internet if connections are lost)
   
6. Maximum Flexibility for leasing services from the Datacenter. (So I have full control over
   my hosting service and can provide the best top quality hosting service!)

After locating just such a DataCenter in Orlando Florida, I proceeded to migrate my old and new clients to my new home. In the last 3 years my search has really has paid off! My DataCenter is manned by top quality certified technicians 24/7 and they have maintained my servers running with well-over 99% uptime!

.::Network Redundancy

G2W Hosting uses intelligent end-user routing software called Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) between there OC-3's. BGP identifies which path is the most efficient for each data packet and then routes the packet to its destination on the fastest path. This increases the speed at which web pages sent from our NOC arrive at their destination.

.::Network Reliability

G2W Hosting recognizes that downtime is not an option for your servers. That's why we have chosen the hardware and facilities that ensure that your sites are up and running on the web 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

G2W Hosting's Network Operations Center (NOC) features raised flooring. This enables a constant flow of conditioned air and helps to maintain uniform room temperature at all times. In addition, raised flooring reduces static and ensures a professional, computer-grade environment for your servers.

Finally, the NOC is located in a secure, monitored, class A building with a minimum number of approved personnel allowed access to highly sensitive areas and equipment. A detailed record of employee and visitor entry is maintained at all times. Physical Location of the servers and network is:

100 W. Lake Lucerne #203
Orlando FL, 32801

.::Uninterruptible Power System

To guard against local power failures, G2W Hosting has two industrial-grade, three-phase Liebert UPS systems. These act as back-up batteries, maintaining uninterrupted power in case of surges or power outages. With these back-up systems in place, we can keep our network up and running indefinitely without relying on external power.

.::Industrial-Grade Air Conditioners

G2W Hosting's NOC has two Liebert 10 ton industrial air conditioners that condition our computer rooms and operations center. Air temperature is maintained at an optimal 65 degrees Fahrenheit.

.::Custom Web Servers

G2W Hosting's web servers are custom-built industrial machines designed for a 24/7 web serving environment. All G2W Hosting servers are equipped with dual-redundant, 400-watt power supplies, hot swap Seagate Barracuda /Cheetah drives and force-filtered cooling systems. In addition, our NOC is equipped with an inventory of identically configured, burned-in standby servers.

.::Force Filtered Cooling

All of G2W Hosting's custom web servers are equipped with a positive-pressure filtered-air system. Four large fans pull filtered air into each server's protective case, and the components within are cooled by fans that circulate this purified air. This constant introduction of clean air into the case creates a positive pressure environment ensuring that dust and particles remain outside the server.

.::Redundant Hot Swap Power Supplies

Each server employs dual-redundant hot swap power supplies. If a power supply were to fail, the server would continue running with power from the alternate supply. Meanwhile, alarms would alert a technician, who would quickly restore redundancy. In the meantime, servers and client sites would experience no downtime.
