Well Connected Data Centers

RimuHosting uses data centers in multiple countries.  This lets you host with a server closest to you or your users.  We currently use data centers in the following locations:

• Dallas, Texas
• London, England
• Brisbane, Australia
• Sydney, Australia
• Auckland, New Zealand
• Frankfurt, Germany

These locations let you choose a server nearest your US, European or Australasian users.

Each data center has redundant UPS systems, generator backup, closed circuit monitoring, card key access, 24-hour guards and redundant a/c systems. Rest assured your hardware is being well taken care of.

• Lots of low latency bandwidth.  Typically you can 'ping' other US servers in an incredibly fast 20ms or less.
• Multiple, Gigabit Connections to the Internet. So even multi-megabyte files can be downloaded in seconds.
• 24x7 Server Monitoring.  And our sysadmins are paged if anything is wrong.  It's "peace of mind" hosting.
• UPS protected highly redundant power feeds

Dallas Data Center

The Dallas-based data center we use, run by TierPoint, provides a reliable, fast and affordable mix of BGP routed bandwidth. The data center run a Cisco networking environment. And is staffed 24x7 by technicians who perform all our remote hands work (e.g. changing drives, memory or swapping servers).

TierPoint take their power seriously.  They have 4 autonomous 2N power plants; 11MW of utility power; and 6 backup diesel generators on standby.

TierPoint is very secure.  Their 68,000 sq ft facility is annually audited for Type 2 SOC 1 and Type 2 SOC 2 compliance; single story; single tenanted; FM-90 rated wind roof.  Multi-layered security includes card key, pin, and biometric scans at the facility entrance; intrusion detection systems and full CCTV surveillance.

The servers we purchase and colocate at the Dallas data center are the latest and greatest our money can buy, so we are able to offer customers great pricing on extra memory and disk space.

If you are not sure which data center to go with then we recommend you setup your VPS or dedicated server at this data center. We host most of our customers at this facility.
