[/frame]I am pretty excited to announce the addition of another data center option to the list of facilities you can choose between when hosting with Rapid Purple. As of today you can request your sites to be located in one of the most popular data center locations in Eastern Europe – the Telepoint data center located in the heart of Sofia, Bulgaria.
The Telepoint data center is a carrier-neutral Tier 3+ facility, which is situated at a crossroad of many local and international telecom networks.
The great connectivity conditions make the facility a great choice for websites located within the region of Eastern Europe, including countries like Bulgaria, Serbia, Macedonia, Greece, Turkey, Romania, Ukraine, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, etc.
The facility offers 24/7 onsite customer support and system monitoring. Engineers are on duty 24/7 to assist with any issues and problems and to ensure everything is running smoothly. To ensure complete protection of the stored sensitive information, Telepoint applies a number of physical access control measures. All of the areas are under constant video surveillance along with armed guards who are on duty 24/7.
The Telepoint data center operates up to the highest standards for storage, management and dissemination of data and information. It has an ISO:9001 Quality Management System certification and an ISO:27001 Information Security System certification. Their full redundancy, the quality control and the information security systems allows for a promise of 99.999% service uptime.
Currently only shared hosting clients can utilize the Telepoint data center, however I do plan to allow VPS clients to utilize the new Eastern Europe location shortly.
