Windstream Opens Little Rock Data Center

"As more companies realize the benefits of cloud-based services, the demand for data centers that provide enhanced offerings and greater security has skyrocketed," said Kip Turco, Windstream Hosted Solutions' senior vice president of data center operations. "We have gone to great lengths to ensure that the services supplied to our business clients through the Little Rock data center are reliable, giving us the ability to provide the most secure and solid service available."

The new Windstream data center provides circuit redundancies that ensure no single point of failure. Should the contingency arise, all core network gear within the data center is fully redundant as then.  These features are consistent with Windstream's ability to provide a total range of services, ranging from Internet access to the secure protection and management of a company's infrastructure. They help ensure that Windstream Hosted Solutions' clients consistently remain online, a key requirement for virtually any company operating in today's economy.

A trusted data center partner to both small- to mid-size businesses as then as large Fortune 100 companies, Windstream Hosted Solutions provides enterprise-class managed hosting solutions for data storage, cloud computing, network and security, OS management, middleware service management, DBA services and disaster recovery.
