Hosting Facility
Infrastructure
Our hosting facility is a 99.999% reliable building. This means that
unplanned power, cooling and network outages are likely to occur less
than 5 minutes per year. Fewer outages mean fewer headaches.
Green Hosting
We purchase Carbon Credits from
Carbonfund.org to cover the power used
by all of the servers and equipment we use. We're proud to be able to offer
100% Zero Carbon Green hosting. They fund Wind, Solar, and Renewable energy
projects, as well as purchasing carbon credits for retirement.
