Having outstanding people is a necessary requirement for
delivering the highest level of managed hosting services. In addition,
the performance, reliability and availability of the network must also
be unsurpassed. To meet your expectations, our network
is
housed in a Top Tier Data Center, operated by Quality Technology
Services, Inc.,
one of the leading data center providers
in the world. Quality Technology Services (QTS) provides eApps with the
data center
infrastructure and high volume, redundant Internet connections required
to support commerical grade web sites and applications.

We are housed in the Atlanta data center of QTS. This
376,000 square foot data
center is reported to be one of the top data centers in the USA. The
facility is located in a geographic formation that minimizes
the possibility of wind and tornado damage. Temperature is regulated
within a very low tolerance. The facility also has its own
power
regeneration capability to ensure pure power.
The data center is served
by multiple high speed optical connections from various backbone
providers. Our primary feed is through Internap,
one of the most highly rated backbone providers. Internap's
ability to intelligently route traffic for maximum throughput is
unsurpassed. They also have superior abilities to detect and
quickly respond to threats and traffic issues. Our investment
in
this upstream provider is well justified.
Within the data center, we have
total control of our hosting environment. We have designed our own
switched network which is maintained by us. This structure provides the
best of both worlds - QTS manages the capital intensive
infrastructure and we manage the network and servers that our
customer's sites and applications run on. This approach provides you
the following benefits:
- Availability -- The data center
is
over-engineered
to provide redundancy at every possible point of failure. This includes
multiple high speed feeds to the Internet backbone, re-generated power
to ensure power purity, batteries and generators in case of power
failures, storm proof facilities, and more.
- Performance -- At the data center
level, high
speed, high capacity network equipment is used to ensure throughput and
best routing over the Internet. Likewise, the eApps network contained
inside the data center uses top of the line network equipment for
maximum performance.
- Responsiveness -- Since we manage
our own
network,
we are able to respond with speed and effectiveness whenever an issue
arises in the hosting environment. As mentioned previously, QTS is
a leader in managing the data center. This specialization of effort
results in our customers receiving the prompt care and attention
through personal service from eApps with the security and reliability
of a world class data center managed by QTS.
