Managed Hosting
During the power blackout of August 14, 2003, that affected the entire north-eastern seaboard of the United States and Ontario in Canada, darkening New York, Toronto, and other major cities in the region for more than 24 hours, Momentum's customers continued to operate without interruption!
Absolute Assurance
Whether we manage your equipment, your data, your applications, your network, your Internet, VPN, or wireless connectivity, or all of these, you need absolute assurance that your business infrastructure is safe, secure, and cannot be compromised in any way. To ensure the complete integrity of our hosting solutions, Momentum constructed a secure hosting facility and Network Operations Centre in 2001 using the most up-to-date data centre construction techniques.
Expertise
Momentum is unique by managed hosting standards with more than 200 multi-vendor certifications that are leveraged from our information technology divisions. These certifications meet the highest standards of such industry leaders as Cisco, Veritas, HP, f5, IBM, Sun and others. Our expertise provides a comfort level that extends far beyond the four walls and high level facility standards of our hosted solutions.
Security
Physical security at our data centre is assured through the use of an electronic authentication and access control system. The walls of the facility have been strengthened to prevent intruders from by-passing security. The facility is staffed 24/7/365 and is monitored continuously by video cameras that are digitally archived.
Protected
Your systems are protected from power failure through state-of-the-art Dual Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS), battery backup power, and in the event of a long-term power outage, redundant diesel generators. In addition, the data centre high-voltage feeds are distributed through redundant and independent grids providing continuous computer-grade power.
The Momentum data centre is equipped with multiple HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) systems to maintain control over all environmental conditions. Temperature and humidity are held within strict tolerances.
A sophisticated fire detection and pre-actioned fire suppression system provides extensive, zoned fire protection for all customer and Momentum equipment including FM200 and /or a dry-pipe, pre-action sprinkler system.
