Mail Farm

Mail has become one of the most resource intensive functions of an ISP. In our current environment we have several groups of machines performing different aspects of this complex job, including mail acceptance, checking for viruses, rating for spaminess, and talking with different delivery methodologies (POP, IMAP, etc).

Web Farms

We have two different sets of machines providing web service. Each group is a collection of four to five dedicated web servers with a load balancer front end. Each web server has access to your website's files and if any one of them crashes or is bogged down the other machines are available to take over serving your website, dynamically.

We have two different farms to provide both stable and cutting edge software depending on your needs.

File Servers

We have several different file server solutions, Network Appliances, Linux, and FreeBSD file servers providing many terabytes of storage and backups.

Redundant Backhauls

We have several OC3s through Time Warner, Sprint, and Qwest to provide high available internet access.

State of the Art Modem Racks

We use Total Control and Lucent Digital modem racks, as well as a few analog modem servers to insure reliable connectivity.


Proxy Cache Server

To enhance accessibility of popular sites, we provide a proxy cache server.
