Our Network & Facilities

GotWebHosting.com's state-of-the-art data facilities have been designed to ensure the safety and continuous availability of your website. We've included redundant power backup systems, advanced fire-suppression systems, sensitive environmental controls, and backup diesel generators to guarantee that your site will be open for business at least 99.5% of the time.

Here's how we can bring you this excellent service:
GotWebHost.com's nework has redundant bandwidth from multiple tier-one carriers. Using Cisco routers, we optimize the routing of hits to your webpage through tier-one carriers. When a request for your webpage comes to our data facility, our high speed routers evaluate the best carrier to respond through.

These providers make up over 90% of all Internet traffic. When you send or receive Internet traffic from any of these networks your traffic will be delivered directly, bypassing all peering points. If you are sending or receiving traffic from one of the tier-two or tier-three providers (providers connecting to one of the upstream tiers) your traffic will be directly handed off where the provider meets the upstream, without being bounced from tier-one peer to tier-one peer.

GotWebHost.com employs BGP4 and OSPF routing technology to select the OPTIMUM gateway to all the major "tier-one" providers, delivering the highest quality response for your webpage.

Network power
"The most redundant network in the world is down without electricity." The power for the GotWebHosting.com Network op center was designed with your 100% reliability in mind. The GotWebHosting.com Network is completely independent and isolated from building power. 

18 KVA UPS back-up system
UPS is our first line of defense. If the power so much as burps, power immediately switches to battery power. These batteries can power our entire network for up to one hour, although with our diesel generator this will never be necessary. In addition, all power that flows to the NOC is filtered through the UPS batteries, making it the cleanest, spike-free power available.

30KVA Diesel generator
Within 30 seconds of start up signal, the power is switched from UPS power to generator power. This machine will power our entire network at full capacity for 36 hours. In the event power is needed for more than 36 hours, power can be diverted back to UPS while generator is refueled and back to generator, without ever losing a packet. Literally, we sustain power to the GotWebHosting.com Network for an indefinite time.

The human factor
An emergency system is only as good as the humans who design and maintain it. Charles W. Carter designed the GotWebHosting.com Network Emergency Power System. A 35-year professional with Southern California Edison, he was responsible for the design, maintenance and testing of much of the equipment that powers the Long Beach downtown area. Mr. Carter not only designed the power system, he conducts routine testing and maintenance of the system to ensure it is ready for any emergency.
