One on One Internet Data Center


Built for ultimate high-speed performance, reliability and stability!

One on One Internet's Network Operations Center in Baltimore, Maryland is OnNet with Qwest Communications and Cogent through two separate bandwidth-on-demand connections. Located in the heart of Baltimore's downtown area and financial district, the Data Center is located on a redundant power grid that has three power stations. Two major banks are also relying on this power grid.

:: Security

The security of the Data Center is a top priority for One on One Internet. We have taken extreme care to implement the most stringent security measures so our customers can rest easy knowing their data is safe. The Data Center is located in a heavily protected building with security personnel on guard 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Other security features include biometric fingerprint readers on door locks and fire protection by Pre-Action Fire Sprinkler and Halon System.

At One on One Internet, we understand the importance of speed, security, and reliable connectivity. We have invested heavily in hardware and facilities that ensure that your site is up and running on the web 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

:: Network Reliability

Our Data Center's location was chosen to maximize the proximity to several large telecommunications providers. AT&T, MCI, MFS, Cogent, and Qwest, have stations located in our building's basement. Instead of relying on phone circuits, our local loops connect directly to their equipment in the same building.

:: Redundant Electrical System

In the unlikely event of power outage on the 3 tier Baltimore Gas & Electric  power grid, our automatic transfer switches activate the backup power system consisting of a 300 kVW diesel generator. The diesel generator can run indefinitely until outside power is restored. 

:: Cooling

The Data Center is monitored around the clock by ADT's state-of-the-art temperature sensors. Air temperature is maintained at an optimal 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Large fans pull filtered air into each server's protective case, ensuring that dust and particles remain safely outside the server. The cooling system includes 44 tons of chilled-water cooling, 40 tons of air-chilled cooling, and two 10 ton portable Liebert industrial air conditioners maintaining optimal temperature over 5,000 square feet of raised flooring.

:: Preparation

One on One Internet's monitoring system keeps a constant check on the health of your servers, notifying us in advance of any potential problems. If something unforeseen does occur, the Data Center is prepared. There are redundant hot swap power supplies for each server. If a power supply fails, the server keeps running with power from the alternate supply while alarms alert technicians who quickly restore redundancy. And due to this preparation, servers and client sites experience no downtime.

Another example of preparation is the supply of spare servers in all CPU configurations. If a server experiences a hardware failure, technicians turn a key, grab the handle on the drive, pull it out and then replace it with an identical standby CPU. The new machine is rebooted and is up and running again in minutes.
