Network Connectivity
Scalable bandwidth from 10Mbps through to OC-12.

Full BGP4 Routing
We use BGP4 (Border Gateway Protocol version 4) on our
Routers to provide immediate failover in the event that the
connection from one of our providers fails. BGP4 is the
standard that allows information sent from the prominent
network to use the best and most efficient route possible.
This ensures that data is delivered to you and your
customers in the shortest time frame and along the most
reliable path. If one of our providers fails, data packets
will continue to route from our network over an alternate
path with a different provider.

Bandwidth Capacity and Guarantee
We always guarantee plenty of excess Internet capacity so
you never have to worry about your bandwidth. We aim for a
maximum average utilization of 70%. This means our metric
for Internet line upgrades is to have 30% excess capacity
during peak load times, regardless of how many high speed
lines we already have. High speed lines are not useful to
customers when they are full, and unlike other providers we
address this problem as a core business policy.

Redundant Power Supply
Power systems in HostedinCanada's datacenter are designed to
run uninterrupted even in the unlikely even of a total power
outage. All servers are fed with conditioned UPS
(Uninterruptible Power Supply) power that will run if
utility power fails. The UPS power subsystem is N+1
redundant with instantaneous fail over in case the primary
UPS fails. In the event of an extended power outage, diesel
generators can run indefinitely and the generator is tested
regularly. When power is restored, the generators continue to
operate until power has stabilized.

HVAC
All air is circulated and filtered every 45 seconds to
remove dust and contaminants. Liebert environment control
systems ensure the data centre is kept at a constant
temperature. The data center's Liebert HVAC (Heating
Ventilation Air Conditioning) system is N+1 redundant to
ensure that - even in the even of an entire HVAC system
failure - there is a backup system on standby to take over.
These systems regulat3e both room temperature and humidity
to ensure a cool, static-free environment. We maintain 20
degrees Celsius with 50% humidity all year round.
