Web Hosting






You can do what you think you can do and you cannot do what you think you cannot

Innovative Connections is committed to fitting each web site with the correct hosting solution. That is why we don't list hosting packages here because with packages you always pay for items you don't need. Just fill out our Hosting Quote Form and we will provide you with a "no obligation" quote for exactly what you need. It's that simple!

We use only up-to-date, high performance, reliable equipment and servers. Unlike some low-end server hosting companies, we do not use any Pentium Celeron, AMD and Cyrix chips. We do not use any IDE hard drives. We use only Intel chips designed for servers. We use only SCSI hard drives. All of our dedicated servers are powerful enough to support over 1 million hits a day and can host over 1000 web sites.

Our servers are housed in a state-of-the-art Internet data center that is engineered for high performance and redundancy. It has rich fiber connections to the world's best Internet backbones such as UUNET, Sprint, AT&T and Level 3 and scalable bandwidth capacity from OC3 to OC192. Network uptime is guaranteed with these top rated providers. There are no traffic free exchanges with other providers at public exchange points such as MAE-East and MAE-West. Such peering agreement has no service quality guarantee. You often see packet loss at these public exchange points.

The building in which our servers reside is supplied with triple power feeds from the utility company. In the event of a power outage, the data center is equipped with a 1500 KVA ONAN diesel generator. The generator is tested every week. When a power outage is detected, the generator will start automatically within 15 seconds. With one tank of gas in the generator, it can power 15000 servers for 36 hours. Fuel can be added to keep the network up and running indefinitely.

The data center also uses an MGE data center Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). This UPS has been installed to constantly monitor and regulate the quality of power coming from the wall so that equipment always receives the clean 120-volt power for which it was designed.

The data center is protected by redundant Liebert indoor cooling systems and is kept at an optimal temperature. These cooling systems provide precise, reliable control of room temperature, humidity, and airflow that improves operating conditions for sensitive electronic equipment.

The data center is engineered to be protected from fire damages. It has concrete floors, all steel ceilings, fireproof walls, and steel framed racks. There is no flammable material inside the data center area.

The data center is equipped with pre-action fire surpression systems, which prevent accidental spray when there is a false fire alarm. When a true fire occurs, this system will spray to put out the fire.

Access to the building can be achieved through an automatic door, which is operated by a state-of-the-art access control system. Since all employees have to use access codes to enter the building, a detailed record of employee and visitor entry is maintained at all times. Fewer employees have access to responsive areas of the data center and must pass through multi-point security checks, including biometric readers, for data center access. The building is monitored 24x7 by security guards. The data center is monitored 24 x 7 by on-site staff.
