WestHost servers are supported by a world-class infrastructure engineered from the ground up to support just about any kind of contingency. Redundant telecommunications paths into the local fiber optics infrastructure are buried around our Data Center and supported by multiple fiber carriers providing Tier I connections to the Internet backbone. The list of fiber providers to the data center includes AT&T, Global Crossing, Level3, and XO. The Data Center of the company is SAS70 certified and constructed on top of a 3½-foot thick reinforced matte footing to which are bolted nine separate base isolations units. These base isolators called "shock absorbers" are designed to absorb the shaking of the ground during an earthquake and transform the shaking into a gentle roll, thus keeping racks from tipping over and hard drives from jumping. WestHost utilizes a fire suppression system that is people safe, protects property and equipment, and is completely environmental-friendly. A fire suppression system is accomplished by using INERGEN® agent that is non-toxic and removes enough oxygen from the air to extinguish the fire yet people are still able to breathe comfortably. At the Data Center the company implements security measures that begin before a person arrives on the property or even enters the building and continues once they are inside. Set-in-stone procedures for handling visitors and equipment ensure unauthorized personnel never touch your assets. Redundant telecommunications paths into the local fiber optics infrastructure are buried around the Data Center and if a cable is cut or an earthquake disrupts fiber on one side of the building, a redundant path exists on the other side. Tier 1 connections to the Internet backbone are available through multiple Gigabyte Ethernet connections and multiple OC-3 lines with scalability to OC-48 and beyond. Uninterruptable Power Electrical power comes into the data center through the local power grid and is backed up by a battery supply capable of powering the building for approximately 15 minutes. An underground diesel fuel tank is located on the premises with enough fuel to run the data center at full power for three to five days. Equipment requiring 208V/110V is supported by power distribution units strategically located in the data center. With tools like Site Manager, managing your site becomes a breeze.
