Data integrity and speed are assured by multiple
Network Appliance Filers using RAID technology.
This assures reliability where the RAID (Redundant
Array of Independent Disks) allows an increase
in the mean time between failures but also increases
fault tolerance through a large data capacity
and by placing data on multiple disks. This configuration
allows I/O (input/output) operations to overlap
in a balanced way, improving performance.
Three back up systems are in place,
one being on-site and two off-site at geographically
separate data centers. All systems are monitored
24/7 by experienced NOC staff.
