New Data Center Offers Unsurpassed Speed, Security, and Quality - Ideal for Serving End Customers in Asia and Europe
ALEXANDER FIRST NATION, NORTH AMERICA, Tuesday, October 31st, 2006 Alexander Internet Technologies state-of-the-art Data Center is on schedule to open December, 2006. Construction is underway on a high availability 25,000 square foot data center, offering clients secure server co-location facilities enjoying uncapped bandwidth, wirespeed connectivity, 24x7x365 onsite support, and failsafe backup and redundancy through a strategic alliance with a sister site in Asia (scheduled for start in Jan 07). With an ultra-low latency of .04 seconds, the data center is ideally suited to allow clients to service end customers in Asia and Europe. The new AIT facility, opening December, 2006, includes fully serviced office space (7,600 sq.ft.) available for clients.
Alexander First Nation has established and empowered Alexander Internet Technologies (AIT) to facilitate the involvement of Alexander First Nation and its members in internet and technology industries. Located just 20 minutes from downtown Edmonton, Alberta, AIT offers the advantage of doing business in a major North American metropolitan market, in collaboration with a stable and progressive native community and its government the Chief and Council of Alexander First Nation.
This data center will allow international customers the comfort of securely running their operations with 100% uptime, while maintaining failsafe global switchover capability as required, said Ms. Cheryl Savoie, of Alexander Internet Technologies. This offering is in response to market demand, and builds on Alexander First Nations significant investment in the technology.
Our state-of-the-art Data Center Network is comprised entirely of carrier-class Network hardware, featuring redundancy at all layers. At the hardware layer multiple routers and switches are configured in parallel with dynamic routing and switching to ensure automated fail-over during hardware, software or link failure. Our data center is located directly on multiple diverse fiber rings, and is redundantly connected to IP carriers by a minimum of two separate local providers. BGP4 is used in conjunction with the RouteScience PathControl system providing automated real-time (sub-second), best path route adjustment to ensure that traffic is delivered to the best provider.
Total network utilization is carefully monitored to enable upgrades as required to allow provision of a 2-to-1 ratio of available bandwidth to peak bandwidth. The NOC has been designed to reduce physical stress and staff requirements by operating in "lights-out" mode. This is extremely important as it allows us to maximize resource usage and to provide an environment of increased efficiency and security.
In addition we are able to offer:
Backup and disaster recovery which are 100% maintained by professional backup administrators - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Clients are protected against risks associated with system changes, catastrophic server failure and other controlled or uncontrolled events.
Global balancing services for your online gaming applications between AIT and an Asian Partner or where your current servers reside.
