The Data Center

GologicInc.com Hosting provides the world-class infrastructure necessary to maintain your web site 24x7. We operate our primary Cisco-powered data center out of Lewis Center, OH. Our data centers have been engineered to avoid any single point of failure in our connectivity, power, or HVAC. And because our data centers are not open to the public, you can rest assured that only a handful of highly trained, level-three technicians will be allowed within close physical proximity to your server.

Physical Security

Our facilities are manned with 24/7 security personnel. Badge/photo ID access screening as well as biometric access screening are employed for an added level of security. We have installed a dual door floor trap design for access to the raised floor area, and we require escorts to gain access to raised floor areas. Sensitive security areas within the center are protected by motion sensors and security breach alarms, and video cameras installed throughout the center are continuously monitored by security personnel.

Network Security

All of our systems are designed to maintain a quality of service throughout the network by prioritizing packets to maintain an order of precedence of services. Each network device is equipped to filter out DOS attacks. We also offer intelligent, multilayer access control that can be utilized to protect the network from the impact of attacks while reducing the risk of inadvertently discarding legitimate traffic.

Conditioned Power

Power systems in our data centers are designed to run uninterrupted even in the unlikely event of a total power outage. All servers are fed with conditioned UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) power that will run if utility power fails. The UPS power subsystem is N+1 redundant with instantaneous failover in case the primary UPS fails. In the event of an extended power outage, an on-site diesel generator can run indefinitely. The generator is regularly tested to ensure that it will continue to function in the event of an emergency.

A Precision Environment

Our data centers are meticulously tidy. All air is circulated and filtered every 90 seconds to remove dust and contaminants. The data center's HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) system is N+1 redundant to ensure that - even in the event of an entire HVAC system failure - there is a duplicate system on standby to take over. An advanced fire-suppression system is in place to prevent any fire from spreading - in the unlikely event that one could start. All cables to servers and routing equipment are securely tied down, and cable racks suspended from the ceiling provide dual routes for all cables. In the event that all cables on a cable rack are cut or burned, packets of data will automatically be routed to a second set of cables on the other side of the data center.
