IWEB IceWEB Announces Advanced Redundant Cloud Services to Three Iconic Buildings
Unique Fail-Over Service Provides a Trifecta of Mode, Carrier & Entrance Diversity
IceWEB, Inc. (OTCBB:IWEB) today announced that it has extended a revolutionary diverse private network capability to three Iconic multi-tenant buildings in the Kansas City metropolitan area. These new services will deliver bandwidth connectivity via fiber and high capacity microwave from up to 27 different carriers, fed from our Network Access Points (NAP) Meet-Me-Rooms, and more importantly, via diverse points of entry to the buildings.
“Everyone is going to the cloud, be it public or private, and the responsible business practice is to have an utterly reliable network backed up by redundancy at the data center, switching, routing and infrastructure level. We have that,” said Rob Howe, IceWEB CEO.
“The reality is that disasters happen, infrastructure fails, and the world doesn’t want to wait while your business figures out how to recover from the crisis. All too often, fiber providers enter large multi-tenant buildings via the same trenches to the same demarcation points, and these are often in the same place. Having redundant fiber providers does not assure a business of true redundancy in floods, fiber cuts and prolonged power failures. IceWEB’s subsidiary Computers and Tele Comm’s (CTC) independent network comes wirelessly to the roof of these buildings KC NAP, LLC utilizes almost any carriers’ fiber as well as our own to feed up from the ground. These two delivery modes can be set up to switch on the fly in minutes, to keep these and other buildings’ services going,” Howe concluded.
According to IceWEB Chief Technologist Graeme Gibson, “All carriers try for reliability uptime in their core of 99.999% or 5.26 minutes down a year, and many achieve it in their core. The problem comes in the last mile, where for many buildings no contingency plan was ever given to having redundant paths where disasters or human error can take a 5 minute outage figure to 8.76 hours.”
“Less than a month after announcing our Virtual Meet-Me-RoomTM (VMMR) technology, on which this is based, we selected three famous metro area buildings as our first production targets. In all three buildings not only is redundant Internet service now available, the ability to combine up to ten carriers or private pipes on two physical layers of Ethernet and deliver that through the ground or the air via different paths is available as well. This deployment of our VMMR technology provides an enhanced value that is measurable to these buildings and others like them.”
