If you're business relies on having high availability Internet service make sure that your Internet DSL Internet or High Speed Internet in Indiana provider has upstream redundant connections. Ask your Internet providers what business continuity and data disaster recovery plans they have to keep service running in event of upstream service interruption. There are many Internet providers that only have a single upstream connection to the Internet. There was a major outage in the area last week due to a fiber cut in a key communication line to an upstream Internet Provider in Chicago. This left many customers without Internet Service. Lightbound, which provides High Speed Internet in Indiana, has two 2.5 GB upstream connections, one to Herndon, Virginia and the other to Chicago. Even though the Chicago connection was cut there still was a full 2.5 GB connection to Virginia that provided Lightbound customers uninterrupted Internet Access Indiana. This is very important if you are using managed servers hosting or server collocation in a facility that needs always available High Speed Internet in Indiana.
Cloud computing has been the buzz in the IT industry as of recent. The benefit of cloud computing is cost savings by not having to make investment in capital IT resources. You purchase on demand the the unused capacity of another companies computing power. If you are using cloud computing for applications that your information workers use on a daily basis they key to performance is a high quality Internet connection. Many companies buy Internet purely as a commodity and look at it on a price for MB basis. All Internet access is not created equal. You need to consider who is you Internet provider using for upstream connections. How large are the upstream connections. Do they have redundant upstream providers. If you have a Internet Service Provider who provides a 10 MB connection to a business, but they only has a DS3 (45 MB) connection that is shared among 100 or more businesses you are not going to get very good service. In order to get peak performance for cloud computing check into the details of what you Internet Service Provider has behind the scenes. For top quality Internet Service Indiana, Internet Access Indiana, Indiana DSL Internet, and High Speed Internet in Indiana look to Lightbound to provide you top quality high performing service.
Today has been a day full of explaining how different providers actually regulate Quality of Service on your Internet Access Connections.
Not all Internet Access is the same, what do I mean by that.
What I mean is, and I am not a gamer(but in the gamer world this is paramount), but end to end performance is the key and can you really afford to have your customers waiting on data back from your web servers. You may be sitting there saying my server is running at 5 percent utilization and my customers are calling about poor performance.
They will go somewhere else, that is why every Internet Access Provider is not the same. Make sure you understand your needs before you go out and buy the cheapest solution. If your goal is just surfing that is different than hosting servers.
If you can remember that end to end performance is what you are after you do find and maybe that will indirectly make your business more profitable.
Have a great day!
