About Modwest

Our Operations Center

Modwest Headquarters

At Modwest, you can feel comfortable knowing your data is in good hands. Our facility was built to be as secure and well-connected as possible, ensuring reliable, quick access to your website.

We invested significantly in our systems so they can be quickly and easily scaled as we grow. With a state-of-the-art storage area network (SAN) and blade server architecture we can quickly and easily add to our capabilities without causing costly interruptions in service.

Environmental Control

Modwest Data Center

Our physical offices are in the same building as our datacenter. The datacenter is a carrier class facility engineered and constructed to the highest standards and equipped with HVAC environmental control systems, state of the art smoke detection and fire suppression systems, conditioned AC and DC power systems backed up by generators and 24 x 7 secured entry.

Redundant Network Connectivity

Modwest SAN

Our internet connection is on a fast, secure network multi-homed to internet backbone via BGP-routed DS3 and OC3 circuits from Sprint, ATT, Global Crossing, and Big Pipe Communications. Bandwidth capacity is kept well above peak usage rate and BGP4 routing provides stable, efficient, and intelligent data delivery via the fastest route.

Scalable & Reliable Server Architecture

Modwest Blade Servers

Our servers are Xeon and Opteron-powered servers connected by fiber optic cable to the disk subsystem which is an EMC Clarion Storage Area Network of 10,000 rpm fiber channel drives. All systems run on clean power provided by APC Symetra battery power systems for power protection and redundancy to the backup power generator that automatically activates within 30 seconds of a power outage and can run our entire facility indefinitely.
