Security
Located in Huntsville, AL the Simple Helix data center serves a wide range of clients. Those clients have found peace of mind knowing their most valuable and sensitive data is stored within our disaster-resistant data halls housed within the interior of the facility. The location is also protected 24/7 by armed security guards. If that isn’t enough to thwart a potential attack, we have 7 more layers of security to reach our multi-factor, biometric turnstile into the data center.
Utilities
We house an array of machinery that keeps us up and running when the power fails. This machinery includes multiple utility feeds, UPS, diesel generators, and robust data replication grids. These tools provide days of backup power to allow our technicians to fix the problem prior to complete shutdown so you never have to worry!
Monitoring and Support
Your business can’t afford to experience downtime. That’s why our facility features technology that alerts our staff to anything that may adversely affect our customers. Our Network Operations Center (NOC) acts as a central hub. This allows us to monitor our data center infrastructure and alert you when there are issues. You can feel safe knowing we are always looking out for you and your data.
