OL7 is an industry leading company specializing in providing comprehensive Web Hosting solutions to our clients, while maintaining the highest level of Customer Service satisfaction. We focus on Customer Service, Network Reliability, and Server Uptime, while providing the best Value to ensure the Success of our Clients.

OL7 brings years of professional experience and know how to provide our clients with the most complete and most reliable Web Hosting environment. We took our years of experience in hosting thousands of websites and put it into one uncompromising package, the Platinum package.

OL7 recognizes that downtime is not an option for your Websites. That's why we invest heavily in hardware and facilities that ensure that our clients are up and running on the web 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

OL7 chose Level3 (take a video tour) for our Network Operations Center (NOC). It features raised flooring. This enables a constant flow of conditioned air and helps to maintain uniform room temperature at all times. In addition, raised flooring reduces static and ensures a professional, computer-grade environment for our servers.

The facility is equipped with a Raytheon fire suppression system, designed to immediately extinguish fire and protect equipment and personnel. The command center is controlled via automatic doors with biometric scans to further secure and protect the equipment.

The NOC is located in a secure, monitored, class A building with a minimum number of approved personnel allowed access to highly sensitive areas and equipment. A detailed record of employee and visitor entry is maintained at all times.

To guard against local power failures, OL7 has industrial-grade, three-phase UPS systems. These act as back-up batteries, maintaining uninterrupted power in case of surges or power outages. With these back-up systems in place, we can keep our network up and running indefinitely without relying on external power.

OL7's NOC uses Liebert 10 ton industrial air conditioners that condition our computer rooms and operations center. Air temperature is maintained at an optimal 65 degrees Fahrenheit.

OL7's web servers are custom-built industrial machines designed for a 24/7 web serving environment. All OL7 servers are equipped with dual-redundant power supplies, swapable drives and force-filtered cooling systems. In addition, our NOC is equipped with an inventory of identically configured, burned-in standby servers.

All of OL7's custom web servers are equipped with a positive-pressure filtered-air system. Four large fans pull filtered air into each server's protective case, and the components within are cooled by fans that circulate this purified air. This constant introduction of clean air into the case creates a positive pressure environment ensuring that dust and particles remain outside the server.

The drives and drive bays of all OL7 servers are constructed from high-grade aluminum and rest in shock-mounted drive cages, which adds to the durability of the hardware.

Each server employs dual-redundant hot swap power supplies. If a power supply were to fail, the server would continue running with power from the alternate supply. Meanwhile, alarms would alert a technician, who would quickly restore redundancy. In the meantime, servers and client sites would experience no downtime.

We keep spare servers online of all CPU configurations. If a server were to experience a hardware failure, we would turn a key, grab the handle on the drive, pull it out and insert it into an identical standby CPU. We would then reboot the second machine, and the server would be up and running again in a matter of minutes.

Our all digital Network consists of a blend of top transit providers including Level(3), AboveNet, and Cogent. With advanced routing technology, traffic takes the shortest, least congested routes on any of our available upstreams. Multiple gigabit connections maximize uptime and ensure stable network connectivity.

The Level(3) digital fiber-optic network is one of the most extensive and complex data distribution grids in the world.

Engineered for stability and efficiency, Level(3)'s bandwidth architecture spreads over 20,000 miles throughout the U.S. and Europe. Multi-conduit construction allows the network to be constantly upgraded with the latest technologies, ensuring that the services you receive are always the best available.

Peering with other Tier-1 providers means that the transmission of data to the end user takes the shortest route, providing the fastest and most stable connection possible.

The AboveNet backbone has been optimized for scalability, survivability, performance, efficiency and manageability. The current AboveNet network consists of a set of sites interconnected in a partial mesh and will be extended to accommodate a larger number of sites moving toward a two level hierarchy. This two level approach allows arbitrary scaling at either level according to various technological and business imperatives.

AboveNet hubs are connected via AboveNet fiber and DWDM equipment terminating the fiber. This infrastructure enables AboveNet to deliver a high level of availability and fast Internet response for both domestic and international traffic.

Cogent's end-to-end optical network consists of multiple metropolitan IP-over-WDM fiber rings located in Cogent's major markets throughout the United States and Europe. Cogent currently has a presence in over 86 markets throughout the United States and Europe.

With a currently implemented capacity of 80 Gbit/s in the United States and 40 Gbit/s in Europe, Cogent's multi-national IP network is the largest in the world and is scalable to a total capacity of over one Terabit.

Too often providers operate their networks at three to four times their responsible capacity. As a result, their corresponding transfer times reach over 300ms. OL7's network daily average is 27% of its capacity, with midday peak spikes reaching only 33% capacity. OL7 guarantees that clients will be carried off our network in less than 80ms over a five-minute average at any time of day or night.
