DATACENTER

Multi-Homed Connection and Intelligent Routing

LKWEBLAB is directly connected to 9 Tier-1 providers, including MCI, AT&T, Qwest, Level(3), Sprint, Cable & Wireless, Digex, NTT/Verio, and Global Crossing providing the best speed and redundancy possible. Our Intelligent Routing Technology selects the best path out of 9 major backbones and gets your data get from point A to point B in the fastest, most reliable, and least-congested path possible.

Premises

• The Facility is housed in a poured concrete building, making it resistant to natural disasters.
• State-of-the-Art security monitoring system include intelligent card access, fingerprint scanners, and even retinal eye scanners in addition to 24x7 video surveillance.

Force-Filtered Cooling

Environmental controls

• Multiple Liebert HVAC systems provide air conditioning and humidification control, maintains a constant temperature of 65°F and a humidity level that does not exceed 55%.
• Our fire suppression system not only prevents extensive fire damage, it virtually eliminates the potential for collateral damage to delicate equipment from the fire extinguishing agent. Multi-level alarms allow floor attendants to investigate when the Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus (VESDA) system detects a smoke signature. The smoke signature detection system constantly monitors the data center for specific events and can pinpoint the physical location of an event immediately upon detection. An FM200 fire suppression system handles individual instances on the data center floor.

• The facility has a three stage monitored power redundancy system.

1. Separate power grids.
2. Constant Power Suppy (CPS) System.
3. Multiple Diesel generators (infinite power).

• To provide uninterrupted power supply to the data center, we use an environmentally-friendly power supply system that incorporates a steady stream of power from the local utility company and back-up power using a state of the art constant power supply (CPS) and diesel generators. With the CPS system we use, there is no need for battery operated uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units. Instead, our short term backup power supply is completely generated from flywheel systems and then power sustained using diesel generators for long-term backup power. On-site fuel supplies ensure power availability for days at a time. Contracts with multiple local fuel suppliers allow us to provide power indefinitely.

Facility Equipment

• All servers connected to our network via Fast Ethernet (100MB/second).
   
• The facility backbone consists of Foundry Gigabit switches, Cisco Catalyst switches and Cisco routers.
   
• Full Tape Backup System on network with daily backups.
