Our network has such state of the art features as
fiber optic networking, OC3 connections, bandwidth on
demand ability, redundant UPS systems, generator
backup, VESPA detection systems, closed circuit
monitoring of all areas and entrances, card key
access, 24 hour guard manned security, redundant a/c
systems, and fiber from 5 separate providers. (see

Our Servers
Extended Network
OnWebUSA.net recognizes that down time is not an
option for your servers... a substantial investment in
hardware and facilities ensures you are up and running
on the web 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Uninterruptible Power System
To guard against local power failures, our servers
utilize 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 backup systems in place, we can
keep our network up and running indefinitely without
relying on external power.
Force Filtered Cooling
All 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 which circulate this
purified air. This constant introduction of clean air
into the case creates a positive pressure environment
ensuring dust and particles remain outside of the
server.
Hot Swap Drives
The drives and drive bays of all servers are
constructed from high-grade aluminum, and rest in
shock mounted drive cages, which adds to the
durability of the hardware. Our drives proudly feature
the lowest failure rate in the industry.
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.
Industrial-Grade Air Conditioners
OnWebUSA.net NOC has two Liebert ten ton industrial
air conditioners, which condition our computer rooms
and operations center. Our computer room is kept at an
optimal temperature of 65 degrees fahrenheit.
Standby Servers
We keep spare servers on-line of all CPU
configurations. If a server were to experience a
hardware failure, we would turn a key, grab the handle
on the drive, pull it out, and insert it into an
identical standby CPU. We would then reboot the second
machine and the server would be up and running again
in a matter of minutes.
Network Redundancy
Utilization of intelligent end-user routing software
called Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), between Qwest,
GC and GTE, who use the same protocol. 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.
Raw Performance Equals Low Latency/High Throughput
Too often providers operate their networks at three to
four times responsible capacity. As a result, their
corresponding transfer times reach over 300ms.
OnWebUSA.net network daily average is 27% of its
capacity, with midday peak spikes reaching only 33%
capacity. OnWebUSA.net guarantees you will be carried
off our network in less than 80ms over a five minute
average at any time of day or night. |
