Data Center « Solutions for you

Spiderhost Data CenterIf we’re serious about anything, it's our data center.  With these superb features…

  • on-site staff
  • robust security
  • 24/7/365 monitoring
  • the latest in environmental controls
  • three-day power backup, and
  • redundant connections from Level3 and Time Warner

…our data center protects, saves, and serves your data.  Plus it's located in sunny Orlando, Florida!

Redundant Tier 1 connections ensure that our network will not fail.  No way.  And utilizing BGP, our routers pick the best path from your customers' network to ours.  So in the event that any of our redundant circuits fail, you can be sure that your Internet presence will be unaffected.

All of our network equipment and circuits – every last piece – are monitored 24/7/365.  If something seems even the tiniest bit awry, our on-call engineers are on it to thwart any potential problems.  If an outage does manage to sneak by, be assured that it will be handled promptly and shown no mercy.   

Want to see it for yourself?  Or take a right from the comfort of your desk.

The detailed specifications:

UPS and power battery backup

Our data center has uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units with up to 24 hours of battery reserve at full load.  In the event of a power outage, these will operate until emergency generator power is available.  So the possibility of power failure is non-existent, down to the lowest level.  The UPS provides A and B power feeds to the dual feed power distribution unit (PDU).  Say what?  Say, "All power, all the time!"

Generators

Each backup generator is a diesel Caterpillar that can maintain emergency power for up to 72 hours – three days!  We also have contracts with multiple fuel vendors to make sure our little darlin' doesn't go hungry.  We test them on a rigorous preventative maintenance schedule (and their multiplication tables).  Plus they're routinely inspected by a team of experienced service technicians.  Of all the generators in all of Florida, we're betting these are the happiest!

Security & Monitoring

The security of our data center is something we do not take lightly.  We've got multiple levels of security:

So if you're worried about the security of our data center, don't be.  We thought of everything!

Cooling

The facilities are cooled by HVAC units that provide chilled water to the Liebert air handling units.  These units are capable of keeping air temperatures at 70 degrees or below, all the time.  The data center is also equipped with monitoring and alarm notification for temperature, humidity, and air-flow fluctuations.  If something even begins to start to look like it's going to go wrong, we're on it.
