Domain Locking:

We lock all domains under our control for added security. We will only unlock a domain name by email request of the registrant (owner) or listed administrative contact, and only after we have called the registrant on the phone to confirm the email request was legitimate. We also employ our own "semi-private" contact system for all domains we manage. What this means is that while your name or company may be listed as the registrant of the domain name, all contact information is referred to us. Your physical and mailing address, phone number and email addresses are not exposed to the internet via WHOIS search. This triple layer of protection helps deter domain hijacking; and is included with all domain names that we maintain in our registrar account.

Domain Names, Domains name registration and management:

When you purchase one of our hosting plans, we would PREFER to transfer your existing domain name to our registrar instead of keeping the name at Network Solutions, DomainPeople, Register.com, or wherever you originally registered it. This enables a smooth transition and reliable hosting of your web site. We have found that this is the best way for us to satisfy your hosting needs. If your domain is not registered with our registrar, we will need the account username and password of your current registrar account unless you know how to change the Nameserver information yourself, or know someone who will do it for you. If you are adamant about keeping your domain name with your current domain name registrar, we will be happy to waive the $25.00 domain name registration/yearly renewal fee, however, doing so will void any and all expressed or implied warranties on how fast we can set up your domain; and we cannot be held responsible if your domain name gets "hijacked" or "slammed" later on. We suggest that if you are going to manage any domain name yourself, you pay for Private Domain Name Registration. The fee for this added service is different from registrar to registrar. When you let us manage your domain name, we take care of all of that using our own "triple-action" privacy procedures, so that you are never bothered with spam, junk mail or phone calls in reference to your domain name. Unfortunately, some unscrupulous registrars and web hosting company employ unethical tactics to trick people into switching their domain name registrations or web hosting and this often leads to down-time that can exceed several months. Don't let your web site be destroyed by down-time! Let us secure the domain name and hosting for you, it's what we do! :-)

To inquire about a reseller account for ISP's or webmasters with multiple domains, please email the HostMaster or use our inquiry form. Please include the name of your domain, or the domain name you would like to have registered. To renew a hosting account you already have with AZRiver.com, please email billing@azriver.com with a request for someone to contact you regarding account renewal. We will contact you by phone or email.

Data Center

Our world-class state-of-the-art data center is located in Scranton Pennsylvania. The Scranton NOC or Network Operations Center is one of the largest in the United States and has an incredible track record of connectivity and redundancy.

The facility features about 100,000 square feet of total rack space, redundant UPS systems, generator backup, VESPA detection systems, closed circuit monitoring of all areas and entrances, card key access, 24 hour manned security, redundant HVAC A/C systems, and fiber-optic connections from up to 10 TIER 1 primary internet providers all operating at a minimum bandwidth of 1Gbps, and we have up to 12 secondary providers for the ultimate in load balancing and connectivity!


Our Server Specifications

Routers and Equipment

We do not overload our server. When the number of domains we host reaches a pre-determined number, we will add another server. Currently our servers are operating at about 15% of total available CPU and Bandwidth.

  • Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.8Ghz CPU's with 6MB L2 Cache, 2GB DDR2 RAM, Raid-5 HD's
  • 100Mbps uplink
  • CentOS5.4 Operating System (sourced from Linux)
  • Juniper (M) Backbone Routers
  • Hewlett-Packard Gigabit Ethernet Switches
  • Routers have multiple connections to no less than 10 Tier 1 backbones!

Connectivity

We use non-blocking gigabit devices throughout the network to ensure regional latency of a few milliseconds or less, this is suitable for the most demanding delay-sensitive traffic. Use of redundant fiber rings ensures network reliability and availability. 

The data center currently has connections to 10 Internet backbones service providers including AT&T, Global Crossing, Level (3), Genuity, UUNet, Sprint, etc, etc. By connecting to multiple tier 1 backbones, the data can be distributed through many sources. This design means that the network connections are not dependent upon a single Internet backbone. Thus, when problems do occur, traffic is automatic re-routed, thereby ensuring the integrity of the network and continued access for our high-speed servers. 

Current bandwidth utilization is at about 7% during peak traffic times leaving tons of additional load capability. If one of the backbone connections experiences problems, the traffic will automatically be rerouted over other paths, thereby ensuring that users receive fast access times to sites hosted on our servers.

AZRiver.com servers are not just "top-of-the-line". Our NOC techs are constantly upgrading to the latest specifications. We pay careful attention to daily load, security logs, and bandwidth usage. Our security experts constantly upgrade the Operating System and other software on our servers to stay on top of the never ending "exploits" that hackers commonly take for granted. We make use of the latest and greatest hardware and software based firewall and intrusion detection systems. The key to competition in the web hosting industry is to become known for going the extra mile. Rest assured only the best hardware, software, Internet knowledge and unsurpassed customer support is right here at AZRiver.com!
