Data centre
As an Austrian hosting service provider, our top priority is to ensure that our services are of impeccable quality. For this reason, we continually invest in our dedicated infrastructure to guarantee fail-safe and redundant operation.
Power supply
The non-interruptible power supply is guaranteed by a 15-minute battery capacity and an emergency diesel-powered generator. All power is supplied from renewable energy sources.
Security
Cameras monitor all entrances and server rooms 24/7. An electronic access-control system permits access to authorised persons only after an on-site check of their identity cards.
Fire safety
The latest in early warning systems, with a direct connection to the local fire brigade, ensures that your data is safe even in the event of a fire. In addition to this, specials doors and locking systems prevent the fire spreading to other areas.
Climate control
Constant temperature monitoring and the latest under-floor air conditioning systems ensure the perfect temperature for optimal performance across the server farm is maintained in every room.
Network
A powerful connection for your benefit. Hoststar data centres are equipped with a multiple redundancy network structure. Various connections to the major nodes deliver nearly 100 percent network fail-safety. We use network technology that is rooted in JUNIPER hardware. All customer data is archived on data backup servers in a separate data centre.
