Dear Valued AboveNet Customers and Partners,
Housing many critical business applications, often at a distance from the primary data center, offsite data centers typically rely on centralized IT support and already hard-pressed central IT staff for management and protection.
What happens when the network providing access to these vital remote data centers slows down or crashes?
Unfortunately, such scenarios are all too common. Every year, thousands of enterprise data centers experience significant service interruptions resulting in lost data and revenue. The usual culprit: unreliable Internet and switched Ethernet connectivity in the MAN/WAN. And networks don’t have to crash to hurt a business. Slow response times due to traffic overloads, bandwidth bottlenecks and link failures hit the bottom line too.
Unreliable connectivity to remote data centers is not an acceptable risk for any business.
Virtualized solutions present a good alternative. By virtualizing either at the remote site or back to the data center, organizations can continue to leverage existing data center IT and personnel resources while reducing cost, effort, and downtime. But in order to effectively deploy virtualization over the MAN/WAN, the solution must use fiber optic connectivity.
AboveNet’s fully managed and monitored high bandwidth connectivity is that solution, with the power to interconnect enterprise data/technology centers, business sites, and hosted data centers in a highly reliable, secure MAN/WAN.
