Overland Park, Kansas - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - February 21, 2008 - Web host and Internet solutions provider, Aplus.Net, has completed the migration of a key segment of its dedicated server hardware, to a new data center facility in Phoenix, Arizona, operating in conjunction with its original San Diego-based data center.

Ryan Elledge, Chief Operations Officer at Aplus.Net noted, ”We’re proud to announce the successful completion of Phase I of our new Phoenix data center. As we move on to Phase II, we’ll be sharing further announcements about our progress in optimizing and further growing our capabilities in this brand-new facility.”

The migration involved the transportation of 2,600 servers complete with firewalls, load balancers, KVM switches, and all other related equipment. The move was conducted during off-peak hours over a space of several weeks, resulting in minimal service interruption to customers, according to company officials.

Boasting direct fiber-optic connectivity, uninterruptible power from multiple UPS systems, a back-up diesel generator, and sophisticated climate-control systems, the new 25,000-sq.-ft. data center is fully modernized and optimized for security. The company has partnered with a diversified selection of six major Internet backbone providers to allow for a multi-homed bandwidth that is best-suited for continuous connectivity.

Both of Aplus.Net’s data centers offer high-quality Intel and AMD processors as well as Unix, Linux, and Windows servers to optimize flexibility and performance. Server areas also have restricted access, and are monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Reflecting the company’s concern with the rise of identity theft and on-site burglaries, both facilities are fully protected against flood, fire, and criminal invasion.

Mr. Elledge added, ”These days more than ever, data center security is on everyone’s mind. So we’re proud to state that we’ve gone all out to ensure that this facility is as secure as possible. Keeping our customers’ data safe is our top priority.”

Nicholas Gaugler, Vice President of Development at Aplus.Net remarked, ”We’re a rapidly growing company, and we work hard to stay on top of all the latest developments the dedicated hosting industry has to offer. Given that, a data center expansion was a necessary move for us. And, after months of searching, we decided that Phoenix was the right location for Aplus.Net.”

Company officials cited Phoenix’s fast-growing technological infrastructure, predictable climate, favorable real estate situation, and status as a telecommunications industry center as among the motivating factors behind the decision to open a new dedicated hosting facility in that city.
