Backup Power
A 3.5-megawatt diesel generator provides emergency power for the facility,
in the event of utility outages. Started by Automatic Transfer Switch, and
fueled from a 50,000 gallon tank, this generator can power the datacenter indefinitely.
The generator is tested weekly and is maintained rigorously.
Multiple refueling contracts ensure continued operation even during extended outages.
Network Backbone
The Planet's network architecture utilizes Enterprise routing and switching engines from Juniper and Cisco. The datacenter uses Juniper M20 routers as border routers, Cisco 6500 series switches in the distribution layer and Cisco 6500 switches in the aggregation layers, and Cisco 3500 and 2900 series switches at the customer layer. The network is fully meshed and redundant with 11 backbone providers.
There are multiple OC48 SONET fiber rings that provide basic
connectivity to eight access carriers.

Our Background:
We have been providing web hosting solutions since 2003. Before that
time our company did not provide hosting services and referred our
clients to non affiliated companies. The level of service that our
clients received was not always acceptable, so we began offering them
Hosting.
We try to keep hosting exclusive for clients that we do development
for. In this way we can provide a superior hosting service. The support
and reliability we offer has proven to be the key factor in our ability
to be a competitive force in the ever growing hosting market.
