About UnitedLayer®

UnitedLayer®, LLC, is the premier North American colocation data center, managed hosting, and cloud computing company. UnitedLayer® operates in the most prominent data center and carrier-neutral network exchange facilities in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Ashburn-Virginia, and Toronto. UnitedLayer® has over 30,000 square feet of fully redundant conditioned data center space at 200 Paul in San Francisco, which is one of the most networked Internet points of presence in the world. UnitedLayer® offers scalable managed dedicated servers, complex managed hosting solutions, managed private clouds, VMware vCloud solutions, availability services and hybrid configurations. All colocation, managed hosting, and cloud computing services are backed by UnitedLayer’s® exceptional high-touch 24×365 customer service. UnitedLayer® operates an extensive, nationwide, IPv6-ready, network backbone with low latency and exceptional peering for the benefit of its customers.

With significant upgrades at its SF7 datacenter at 200 Paul, UnitedLayer® continues to offer premier datacenters with extreme connectivity for customers in the San Francisco Bay Area

To ensure premium performance while also reducing its carbon footprint, UnitedLayer®, an established colocation, managed hosting and cloud services provider, has taken one of its older datacenters at 200 Paul to a fully redundant N +1 configuration that ensures the highest availability and reliability for its customers.

With the installation of state-of-the-art Mitsubishi Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) machines operating in parallel in an N+1 configuration, customers are ensured conditioned power even if one fails, i.e. if one machine goes down the remaining stay connected to the customer’s load with no downtime. Similarly, an N+1 cooling system upgrade has ensured that if one cooling system goes down there will still be plenty of cooling to service the datacenter. Previously, this particular datacenter had UPS machines running at 80% efficiency, but with these upgrades, SF7 is now at over 98%, saving overhead and significantly reducing the datacenter’s carbon footprint. In addition, this upgrade has enabled UnitedLayer® to support high-power-density cabinets.

SF7 datacenter is now part of UnitedLayer’s® premier offering with high redundancy and extreme connectivity. It serves the needs of San Francisco and Bay Area customers that require a highly reliable colocation footprint or a complete hybrid solution that incorporates UnitedLayer’s® cloud.

“After acquiring UnitedLayer® in 2010, one of the first things we did was invest significantly in SF7 to upgrade it to a state-of-the-art, highly efficient datacenter. Our engineering team did a meticulous job performing the upgrade while keeping all customer load live — we’re proud to say we’ve had 100% uptime since the acquisition. We are committed to continuous investment in infrastructure to provide our customers with industry-leading uptime, while also protecting the environment.” – Abhijit Phanse, CEO

“We have been extremely happy with the reliability, performance, availability and service from UnitedLayer’s® datacenter. The new leadership team has demonstrated their commitment to infrastructure and the growing needs of customers such as Flixster.” – Saran Chari, CTO Flixster, Inc.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA June 4, 2012 — UnitedLayer® had the foresight five years ago to better serve clients by implementing IPv6 across its network backbone and supporting systems.

Internet Service Providers (ISPs), home networking equipment manufacturers, and web companies around the world are coming together to permanently enable IPv6 by June 6, 2012. IPv6 is the successor to the current Internet Protocol IPv4 and is critical to the Internet’s continued growth and success. As IPv4 addresses become increasingly scarce, every segment of the industry must act quickly to accelerate adoption of IPv6. Companies participating in World IPv6 Day are leading the way in this effort.\

For UnitedLayer®, however, World IPv6 Day is just another day because it had the foresight five years ago to implement IPv6 and is now operating well over the industry goal to have 1% of customers utilizing it. UnitedLayer® hit this goal a year ago; IPv6 is part of its daily business processes. As a result, UnitedLayer’s® customers with colocation, managed services, cloud services and business continuity solutions will continue to experience high performance connectivity during the world-wide transition to IPv6.

“As a provider of IP transit service, we planned for this five years ago to better serve our customers. Four years ago, we implemented IPv6 across our backbone. Every part of our implementation process and supporting tools from sales to operations to account management and customer care include IPv6 as a standard. As a result, our customers will not have the complications other companies are experiencing. It is the fiduciary responsibility of the C-suite of today’s companies to educate themselves if they haven’t already, and partner with their engineers to understand the impact and implications of IPv6.” – Aaron Hughes, Chief Network Architect, UnitedLayer®
