- ABOUT  HVGS -

If you're looking for that basic corporate "About us" page with mission statements and other exciting stuff, check out HiVelocity's Company Page.  But if you're here to find out why the HiVelocity GameZone is the best choice for managing your game servers, read on.

You're looking for an experienced, competent group that knows how to effectively manage game servers and has the resources to do it.  We're it, and we've got em.

THE FACILITY:  Our house.
You're not dealing with some guy sitting in his apartment who has boxes co-located in some facility a thousand miles away.  We own our facility, and we live in it.  At least it seems that way sometimes.  With HiVelocity you're dealing directly with the top of the chain, not a middle man.  We can be on the phone with you and smack your server with a hammer at the same time.  (Note that the hammer is the last resort tool)  

Our 10,000 square foot facility is located in downtown Tampa, FL at 400 N. Tampa St. on the 10th and 7th floors of the Lykes building.

Facility Specifications:

  • 10,000 square feet available in bakers racks, cabinets , Private Suites, and cages.
  • Power: 200 watts per square foot, 1.8 megawatts, feeds from multiple energy grids, 60 minutes UPS battery time at peak load
  • Security: Customer 24x7 access, 24x7 security personnel, key card/keypad access, video surveillance.
  • Entrance: Two diverse fiber entry points
  • HVAC: 70F Air temperature
  • Fire Suppression: FM200
  • Really cool computer-type people

THE NETWORK:  The fat pipe that just won't quit.
Our connectivity is comprised of all Major Tier 1 backbone providers: Level 3 ,XO , Global Crossing, Aleron and Cogent, at DS3 - Gig Ethernet. 
All of our carriers are in the same building as us, so if we have a network issue we simply hop on the elevator and apply our in-your-face trouble reporting technique.  Once connected to our network we have redundant firewalls and routers.  Our Cisco routers utilize BGP4 to provide redundant service through our multiple providers, ensuring availability.  So, for example, if Level 3, Global Crossing and Aleron all blow up,  you're still fraggin'.  

More info on the data center can be found here.

THE CREW:  Extreme geeks.
The Zone crew is comprised of technical experts with over 30 years combined experience in the network and server hosting space.  The GameMaster brings over 8 years of gaming server administration experience and is by far the best looking one of the group.

THE SUPPORT:  Untouchable!
HiVelocity's support is so impressive that we trademarked the name, "Impressive Support".  I kid you not.  Look.  HiVelocity is already very well known for its superior level of support. Our experienced support team is dedicated to helping you get your questions answered in the quickest possible time, 24/7. 

THE BOTTOM LINE:  No-Brainer.
HiVelocity is an already well established company that has been offering internet services for over 6 years, currently serving up more than 75,000 websites in over 100 countries, and all on 3 Windows ME computers!  I'm kidding.  The company, unlike so many others, survived the terribly rocky roads of the tech industry, and continues to remain strong.  HiVelocity is privately held, carries zero debt and is still managed by the same founding  team.  HiVelocity's management abilities are proven, and second to none.  We just won't die!

We've spent many years perfecting this business and are experts at running network and server based services, at optimum efficiency.  We use top-notch equipment, top-notch network providers and we know how to use all this cool stuff.  Our technical abilities are proven, and second to none.  We know this stuff!

Rest assured, your server will perform and be in good hands.
