Softlayer

Uptime: 100%      Speed Rank: 8

In June 2005, ten principals wanted to build a technically superior hosting service for those customers continuing to evolve in their IT needs. Spending months brainstorming ideas and architectures, the team looked to address all the challenges in the current hosted solutions available. SoftLayer was born.

While creating and designing a new method of hosting previously unknown, it became clear that numerous systems and technical strategies must be combined to create this new service. Through the use of public and private networks, the foundation of SoftLayer was created - network-within-the-network design. In this design, each dedicated server has two network interfaces with each interface connected to a separate fully redundant routed network.

Designed to alleviate the need for additional customer infrastructure and offer convenience and redundancy, every SoftLayer dedicated server includes the following complimentary services free of charge.

• OS Update Servers
• Free Cross Connects
• Host & IPMI Monitoring
• 1GB Storage LockBox
• Customer Portal Access
• Reboot / Console Access
• Operating System Reloads
• Out-of-band SSL VPN Access
• 10Mbps Public Network Access
• 10Mbps Private Network Access
• Redundant Resolving DNS Servers
• Redundant Authoritative DNS Servers
