A Tier IV Data Center is the most reliable and secure network operation center specification in existence. A Tier IV Data Center must meet the following minimum criteria:

• Two independent utility paths
• 2N power and cooling systems
• Able to sustain 96 hour power outage
• Stringent site selection criteria
• Minimum two-hour fire rating
• High level of physical security
• 24/7 onsite maintenance staff

This is a very basic description for a data center with Top Secret security clearance! For more detailed information visit the Uptime Institute, the entity which creates Data Center specifications!

As are we all, A+ ECS is but a single cog in the machine. Much as water goes from ground to sky and back again, the Internet is also a grand cyclic chain. When you decide to have a house built, you must work through the bank to an architect on down the line to the laborers who do the building before you can finally live in it and when things go wrong you call on the laborers for help, not the bank or the architect. Consider A+ ECS your laborers with the additional bonus that we deal with the banks, architects, permits and all the rest. Let us take a load off your domain ownership shoulders today!

A+ Emergency Computer Solutions is proud to be a Domain Hosting Provider. It is our favorite place to be because we feel that our help is most appreciated here. We provide the management tasks associated with the responsibility accrued by domain ownership. We maintain email accounts and spam filters, software installation, account services, log analysis, monitor disk space and bandwidth, and all the other boring stuff that most site-owners would prefer to not think about.

If low maintenance, high-quality domain services are what you are looking for, you have come to the right place!

On the other hand, if you would like to handle these tasks yourself, take a moment to check out the amazing services and prices we offer through MarquetteWebSites.com! Through this web site you can get your own multiple domain hosting accounts, virtual private servers, email services and more! Recommended for the discerning user that wants complete control over configuration and various levels of responsibility for their server.

Our service provider is Dathorn Internet Services. Over the past ten years we have experimented with a lot of different providers and Dathorn is far and away the best! We stand by Dathorn and their amazingly dedicated support team 100%.

Dathorn maintains a block of servers owned by Softlayer and physically located inside the Dallas Infomart, currently the most expensive civilian network operations center in the country. The backup servers are located in the Seattle, WA data center.

Dathorn provides support to us on the occasion that we are stumped on server specific issues and we don't have an hour or two to google up solutions ourselves. We mean this quite literally. If we only have five minutes to repair an issue that is either beyond our scope, or currently stumping us, all we have to do is submit a support ticket and the issue is generally resolved to completion before the five minutes is up! Dathorn Internet Services has the best customer support we've ever seen! They maintain the DNS servers, ip addresses, and all the upper level things that go above and beyond the scope of a Domain Hosting Provider.

If you are up to braving the world of multiple domain hosting and management, feel free to get your own Dathorn account. We would gladly stake our reputation right next to their reputation. Take a peak through the forums, you will see that everyone loves Dathorn. If you purchase a Dathorn account, tell them you were referred by user id DIS4015!

And a quote from one of the many 5 year reviews on the DIS Forums:

Congrats on 5 years!

I am at about 3 1/2 years myself, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Before Dathorn I had been with many web hosts over about a 10 year period, and never really found a good quality host. I ended up leasing a dedicated server at The Planet (Server Matrix), and ran that for about a year and a half, but for what I was doing, the cost and management was overkill, and was killing me. So I decided to look for yet another host. Because of my good experiences with The Planet, I focused my search on web hosts that were located in The Planet datacenters. I came across Dathorn, and decided to give them a try! The rest is history... I certainly look forward to my 5 year anniversary, and beyond!

Much thanks to the Dathorn crew! Never had a more rock solid web host than Dathorn! Best in the business in my opinion!

Thanks!
