Over the past few weeks Sitestash has purchased space in a building near our datacenter, in that space we’ve built a small network pop and datacenter. We’ve installed a 12 strand fiber optic cable between the buildings, giving us 6 pairs of fiber into that facility. Sitestash now has all web hosting servers attached to a large network storage array in the new facility, daily backups are now sent off-site the moment the backups are created.
The new storage array is also available to colocation customers wanting to have a true off-site backup solution. All that is required is a cross-connect cable from your equipment to one of our backend network switches. Port speeds up to 1Gbit are available, and as it’s on the backend network there are no bandwidth charges for data transfer.
In addition to the network storage array, Sitestash is also providing internet service to the building that equipment is in. Tenants can connect to the internet via in-building WiMax, or traditional ethernet with speeds up to 1Gbit. Office space is available in the building if you’re in the Atlanta market, please contact us if you’re interested and we’ll connect you with the leasing agent.
Happy New Year!
