What type of data center does Qwest have? Is it secure?
Qwest currently operates a number of data centers throughout the world, including centers in Chicago, London and Seoul. Our state-of-the-art data centers are located in areas of low or no occurrence of natural disasters and hubs of the Internet backbone. Qwest data centers include fully redundant and diverse connections to the Internet backbone through multiple OC-3s and GigE connections to each of our international locations. This ensures the fastest and the most reliable connectivity service to our hosting customers. The constant climate control is accomplished with computer controlled HVAC systems with back-up systems on stand-by. The power is routed through UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supplies) for protection against power failures and interruptions. Qwest data centers are under constant watch by our dedicated systems and network engineering team members who work together to ensure smooth and hassle-free 24/7 operation of our customers’ Web sites.
