The launch of Pacific Internet's Data Centre Service has successfully bridged Internet interoperability between the Southern and Northern parts of China, facilitating data transfer and secure seamless connections within the Chinese mainland and the rest of the world.
"Regular downtime of company websites and slow data transfer can cost millions of dollars in losses to companies with bases in China," Eddy Kuk, managing director of Pacific Internet (Hong Kong) Limited says. "Pacific Internet's China Data Centre Service comes with 'single connection but multiple Internet gateways options', which means customers' servers are now directly connected to the local carriers in the Southern and Northern parts of China, Hong Kong and Pacific Internet's robust Asia Pacific infrastructure. Data can then be transmitted over the gateways and connected to the rest of the world without interruptions."
Enterprises with multiple branches located in Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland can now house their mission-critical data on Pacific Internet's dedicated servers in China and avoid data transmission delay due to traffic congestion. Pacific Internet also offers an Intelligent Domain Name Service (DNS) service, which ensures that customer's websites hosted in Pacific Internet are visited via the fastest path judged by the visitors' locations and the traffic situations to the server. Customers can make use of their bandwidth more effectively and attain the best browsing speed and experience for their websites. With Pacific Internet's China Data Centre Service, visitors can significantly boost browsing speed by up to 15 times.
Pacific Internet's China Data Centre Service currently covers 10 POPs including Shenzhen, Beijing, Shanghai and other cities in the Pearl River Delta, where most of Hong Kong enterprises' branch offices and factories in China are located. They can now empower their businesses through this best- in-class co-location service.
Corporate customers can have different gateway solution options, choosing either one single gateway with China Telecom or China Netcom; a two-gateway solution connected across the two incumbents within the Chinese mainland; or a three-gateway option, which also further connects to Pacific Internet's backbone in addition to local carriers in China. Customers can enjoy further peace of mind, with data stored under secured and environmentally controlled rack housing, backed by professional 24x7 physical access and network monitoring.
Pacific Internet President and CEO, Mr Phey Teck Moh, welcomed the launch of the new Data Centre. "Connecting businesses from Hong Kong, China, and across the region, is a service that Pacific Internet is uniquely placed to deliver," he said. "Extending our services both geographically, and by creating additional value for our clients, is key to our business growth plan over the next five years. We expect this initiative to contribute significantly to our footprint expansion, as well as bring new levels of sophistication to our customer service offerings."
