iPuzzlebiz Web Infrastructure Partner's data center utilizes best-of-breed PC based equipment from the most reputable vendors in the dot.com space.
For our initial deployment our Web Infrastructure Partner is utilizing a combination of Dell, IBM and VA Linux equipment for servers. Network equipment is provided by Extreme Networks and load balancing equipment is provided by F5 Labs. The setup is designed for the highest level of redundancy available in a non-clustered environment.
Hot spares of vital equipment such as Database or Fileservers are kept to minimize downtime during catastrophic failure. To meet the desire of protected data for our customers, we provide a dedicated server array and database mirrored and redundant for security.
