The new datacenter, housed in a separate portion of the same building as the company's primary datacenter, will provide vital capacity for additional servers and networking equipment, in addition to 2,000 sq. ft. of additional office space. InterServer had initially investigated an array of other locations to house the new facility but ultimately felt expansion within the same building would maximize efficiency for the network operations team.Both facilities are powered independently by diesel generators and each benefit from access to an extensive network backbone throughout New York City, Northern New Jersey and London with public peering at NYIIX, PAIX NYC and LINX. The new facility is powered by dual Cisco 6509 SUP720 routers and features a biometric-entry security system and raised flooring to maximize airflow.John Quaglierim, Chief Technical Officer at InterServer explained, "Our new datacenter facility provides us with an important opportunity to expand and further develop our web services, as well as provide more capacity for growth for our customers. In the past several years, we have been limited by a lack of physical space in our facilities, and that has created unique challenges for our team. I am looking forward to begin provisioning this new state of the art facility, and am confident our customers will appreciate the redundancy and scalability we have incorporated into the design of this datacenter."Existing customers with servers housed in the company's other two datacenters will be unaffected and not required to move to the new facility. New orders, however, will be fulfilled in the newly constructed datacenter.InterServer, Inc. is a privately held web solutions provider operating since April 1999.
