Colocation The average office building in New York is ill-equipped to deal with the types of outages that often constitute disasters within the framework of information technology. Events such as the blackout of 2003 or the 2007 steam pipe burst are sure evidence of this; although a UPS power supply is an essential part of your system’s foundation, it can only provide power for so long. As an alternative, many businesses choose to colocate their equipment offsite. The CIS datacenter is an ideal choice for colocation. Not only do we have multiply-redundant bandwidth coming in from all of the major providers, but we have triply-redundant power; in the event of a blackout, we keep running on natural gas. In the event that the gas pipelines go down as well, our state-of-the-art generator will keep running as long as there is someone there to feed it. Colocation offers benefits beyond power and bandwidth redundancy. As a managed service, we will take care of your physical hardware, as well as providing a baseline coverage for your operating environment. This means that you spend less time worrying about your equipment, and more time working on new IT initiatives. We can offer nearly unlimited bandwidth from our datacenter, speeding up your web and remote access operations. Additionally, our superior security infrastructure ensures that your equipment is protected not only from malicious attacks, but from unadvisable climate conditions, fire, flooding, and other unknowns that are mitigated by the controlled environment of a top-of-the-line datacenter. Get in touch with us today and we’ll help you draft a colocation plan that’s right for your business!
