| | | | | | | | | | | | Kansas City, Missouri is our originial location. It has less overall network capacity
than our other locations like Fremont and
Amsterdam, but the capacity it does have
is more than sufficient to maintain good performance for the servers in this facility. Both our
internal network
and our backbone connections are wired with 100 Mbit ethernet. If needed we will upgrade our internal network to
gigabit, but gigabit connections through the backbone providers are not at this time possible. Also, rack
space is limited, and the price per rack is higher.
Our equipment in Kansas City, Missouri is housed with Xeroscape, Inc.
Almost all aspects of network reliability,
network performance, and
power are directly obtained
from Xeroscape. We add network security
on top of their system by providing redundant firewalls dividing traffic into physically-isolated networks.
Xeroscape's networking has been very reliable for us. It is a good location for low latency to most parts of the
country, especially the mid-West. Xeroscape has recently expanded their power infrastructure to ensure reliable
service. Overall, Xeroscape provides excellent service in their facility.
We are currently adding new hardware to Fremont
and Amsterdam. Kansas City is mostly used
for existing customers, but we can add hardware to this location should it be best for a customer.
We focus on the security and reliability of hardware,
operating systems,
and application infrastructure. We count on Xeroscape
for the networking, power, climate control, and physical security.
