WEB HOSTING
Our Hosting Network
We currently host in two facilities, one in the United States
and one in Thailand. This is to provide our clients with maximum
flexibility for their website, depending on their target market.
For example if your main audience is overseas, it makes sense
to host the site in the USA which has the best international connectivity.
Currently we offer:
- Windows 2000 and Unix shared hosting in the USA
- dedicated and co-located hosting in Thailand

Network Redundancy
Our Data Centre (DC) uses intelligent end-user routing software
called Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) between there OC-3's. BGP
identifies which path is the most efficient for each data packet
and then routes the packet to its destination on the fastest path.
This increases the speed at which web pages sent from our NOC
arrive at their destination. Studies have shown that the most
common reason for downtime is circuit failure on Tier 1 provider
backbones, the major data highways. To guard against this potential
problem, we have two Tier-1 providers. If one experiences problems,
we can route traffic down another one. Furthermore, because we
are OnNet with Level(3) and
Qwest, we share their digital distribution architecture,
which includes private peering network connections to major Internet
carriers such as MCI, Sprint, UUNET, EUNET, AT&T, AOL, Best,
Erols, @Home, IBM Advantis and others. These private peering arrangements
allow us to quickly and efficiently exchange packets of data with
every major backbone carrier in a one-to-one environment.
Network Reliability
Industry analysis reveals that 70% of downtime of over 10 hours
with any ISP is caused by telephone circuit failure. Our circuit
failure is virtually eliminated as we are with Level(3) and Qwest.
Our providers also have peering connections with other major Tier
1 providers that allow traffic to be switched to alternate backbones
should the need arise. We recognize that downtime is not an option
for your servers. That's why we invest heavily in hardware and
facilities that ensure that your clients are up and running on
the web 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our Network Operations
Center (NOC) features raised flooring. This enables a constant
flow of conditioned air and helps to maintain uniform room temperature
at all times. In addition, raised flooring reduces static and
ensures a professional, computer-grade environment for your servers.
Finally, the NOC is located in a secure, monitored, class A building
with a minimum number of approved personnel allowed access to
highly sensitive areas and equipment. A detailed record of employee
and visitor entry is maintained at all times.
Uninterruptible Power System
To guard against local power failures, Our Data Centre has two
industrial-grade, three-phase Liebert UPS systems. These act as
back-up batteries, maintaining uninterrupted power in case of
surges or power outages. With these back-up systems in place,
we can keep our network up and running indefinitely without relying
on external power.
Industrial-Grade Air Conditioners
Our NOC has two Liebert 10 ton industrial air conditioners that
condition our computer rooms and operations center. Air temperature
is maintained at an optimal 65 degrees Fahrenheit.
THAILAND HOSTING
FACILITY
The data centre is located in a secure and hardened location,
on the outskirts of the Bangkok CBD. The data centre has been
designed with all the latest environmental and management features
such as:
- Fully redundant power grids and UPS
- Climate controlled: forced air conditioning
- Fire, smoke and moisture detection systems
- Fully redundant bandwidth
High Speed and Redundancy
The SecureIP Network has been designed with maximum security
and high availability as the primary goal. The Network offers the
following features:
Bandwidth
High Speed Redundant Internet Connections to Tier 1 Backbone
Providers such as Optus & Telstra.
Internet Data Security
- Intrusion Detection Systems to detect intrusions and
protect applications where a firewall alone would not be sufficient.
- Multi-Layer Security Model to protect both our Core Network and
Customers Infrastructure.
- Network Segmentation that allows SecureIP to provide each customer
with their own secure and fire walled network segment.
- Switching Technology is available to clients who wish to implement
server redundancy, Load Balancing and Redundancy.
Monitoring
24 x 7 Monitoring of Hardware and suspicious events using
the latest Intrusion Detection Tools.
Real Time Alert Management to staff and customers of suspect activity.
Equipment
Carrier Class equipment used to provide maximum Uptime
and redundancy. |
