Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Windows Server 2003, and Unix FreeBSD & Linux Dedicated Servers
- Basic Description: We build a server with the platform of your choice to your specific configuration, rack it at our co-location facility, provide you with passwords and you're all set!
- We pride ourselves providing our customers with true-non-oversubscribed connectivity, this means that our network is more robust with much less latency and oversubcription than what our competition is offering for the same pricing.
- How are we different?
- We actually customize each server to your specific needs, both hardware and OS installation. Plans that available here are well predefined, very carefully thought out and reasonably priced.
- If you require customized solution you can always email us and we'd be more than happy to discuss it with you.
- All of the hardware components are being fully tested before assigned to each customer.
- We don't offer cheap Intel Celeron processors or similar AMD equivalents.
- Bandwidth and network wise - we are fully redundant. All connections to the CIFNet network come with BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) In the BGP-world, every ISP/NSP operator has its own Autonomous System Number (ASN). Each ASN has a unique number. CIFNet is known to the Internet community as AS14585.
- Redundant routers and switch configuration ensures network stability and scalability. Currently we buy and use Transit connectivity from 2 Tier backbone providers and in the process of evaluating two other.
- Equipment is being co-located with Switch and Data in Chicago, IL. Switch and Data is one of the nation's leading carrier-neutral colocation provider. For more information about the site click here.
- We offer not only customized Unix solutions but MS Windows ® as well.
- Installation timeframe: upon request to be determined, typically from <6 hours to 4 days.
- Pricing: Contact Sales or email us at sales@cifnet.net
