Aims to provide increased redundancy and to better serve businesses in the Midwest.
Future Hosting,
an Internet solutions provider, announced today that it has begun
hosting additional servers in a Chicago, Ill. datacenter to provide
increased redundancy and to better serve businesses in the Midwest.
The
datacenter provides optimal latency to most cities throughout the
United States, and provides better connectivity to the East Coast and
Midwest, as opposed to datacenters based in Dallas, Texas. The company
will immediately offer its cPanel, Plesk and 32-bit OS Virtual Private
Server plans at the new datacenter. Eventually, they also plan to offer
Hybrid and HSPcomplete Virtual Private Server plans in Chicago.
Additional
geographic locations allow businesses to select a datacenter closest to
them and their primary customer base, providing them with the best
possible connectivity for their needs. The Chicago datacenter includes
connections to various internet backbones, including Savvis, PCCW
Global, TeliaSonera, and GameRail.
Future Hosting will maintain
the same Service Level Agreement at the Chicago datacenter,
guaranteeing 99.9% uptime as well as all standard services, such as
100mbps ports, redundant DNS servers, and more.
"The addition of
our Chicago datacenter is the beginning of our focus to increase the
geographic dispersion of our servers. The goal is to provide the end
user with the scalability needed for their businesses to succeed. This
includes being able to upgrade their existing plan with little or no
downtime, and having the necessary infrastructure so true global load
balancing is possible," said Vikram Patel, Future Hosting CEO.
