India’s
first level 3 data centre
Satyam
Hosting commissioned the country's first Level 3 Internet
data center at International Infotech Park, Vashi,
Navi Mumbai, thereby eliminating the need for India
centric applications to seek hosting services outside
the country. The advantage of hosting with a Level
3 data center is that there's no provision for 3 week
downtime per year as might be the case with a Level
1 data centre. So what we are talking about is 24
hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days in a year uptime.
Here’s a photo-feature on the country’s first Level
3 data center.
