  Why host with us

We have a secure facility. Ask your host if they do. We are eight feet underground and we own the entire facility including the outside perimeter fencing. Believe it or not, some hosts choose to locate their facilities in strip malls!.

Each server rack is given its own isolated, monitored breaker which prevents widespread system outages. We invested heavily in our electrical infrastructure for your protection. Unlike some other hosts who simply use the power that is available.
 

Why Winchester? First FEMA(Federal Emergency Management Agency) located their headquarters near Winchester. After years of research they determined this area had the least possibility of any natural disaster wiping out their data. After seeing how well it worked for them we decided to follow this idea. We aren't alone either. AT&T also located their billing center near Winchester.

Why don't other hosts locate there? Other hosting companies tend to locate in Florida and California where it's fun to be, not where your data is safe. Have you ever seen photos of Homestead Airforce base? If a hurricane can cripple a United States Air Force base, it can cripple your data. Have you ever seen photos of server farms in California? Wonder what those orange straps are? You guessed it: EARTHQUAKES! So our competitors decided it was more important for them to live and work in a fun place than it was to protect your data.

What if the power goes out???? We have an onsite generator capable of powering our entire operation indefinitely.

That's great! But what if someone cuts a fiber line? My site will go down, right? Probably not. We have a backup wireless link to another source of bandwidth. We refuse to leave anything as a single point of failure.
What about your conection and routing? We are currently connected to Cable and Wireless with six independent circuits. We plan soon to add an additional circuit. All routing is done via BGP to ensure your customers the fastest path to anywhere.

I'm still not convinced you are the safest host... Well feel free to call for more info, 1-540-722-6705 or email us at noc@cobaltracks.com
