Founded: April 2001
Corporate Profile:
Founded in early 2001, Enterprise Digital began as a provider of web development and networking services for small to mid sized enterprises looking for more from their technology provider. Over time, Enterprise Digital needed a more complete web hosting solution for its clientele that provided unparalleled reliability and power at a lower cost. From that need, grew Enterprise Digital web hosting, powered by the ideas and suggestions of our customers.
Today, Enterprise Digital is armed with fully scaleable hosting platforms and a complete suite of hosting plans that allow for power and reliability for any size website or organization. Enterprise Digital has finally bridged the gap between technology and the end user providing the strength of the large corporation, to the user who expects more from their web hosting company.

Our datacenter provides Tier 1 bandwidth providers, SBC and Allegiance, built on a Cisco powered network.
Cisco Powered Network
Every Enterprise Digital account will be connected to a 100\% Cisco Powered Network. Using enterprise-class Cisco networking gear, all routers, layer-2 switches, and layer-3 switches are tested in labs prior to deployment to ensure stability and interoperability.
Redundant High Bandwidth Connectivity
Using multiple Tier 1 Service Providers ensures the highest degree of security against network downtime and the fastest possible data transfers.
Bandwidth Utilization
It is a common misconception that the amounts of bandwidth (size of the pipes that carry the data) differentiate web hosting companies. In reality it is not only the size of the pipes that matters, it is the utilization levels. The utilization of our Internet connections is vital to a networks ability to transfer data without packet loss or latency. Enterprise Digital aims to keep all connection usage below 50\% to avoid any connectivity problems.
Dynamic Routing
Enterprise Digitals new datacenter runs the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP4) for best case routing. The BGP4 protocol is a standard that allows for the routing of packets of information sent out from our network. Each packet of information is evaluated and sent over the best route possible. Because of our redundant network architecture, packets may be sent via alternative routes even if they are being delivered to the same end user. Should one of our providers fail, packets leaving our network are automatically redirected through another route via a different provider.
Network Security
The Enterprise Digital network is a fully switched network. Traffic destined for a website hosted on a server is sent only through switching equipment necessary to deliver the information to that server. This minimizes the risk of someone sniffing or capturing traffic being sent across the network.
Our data center, located in San Antonio, Texas, has been built from the ground up and equipped with various powerful connections to multiple carriers to ensure uptime and speed consistency and redundancy.
Carrier Class
Our facility is a carrier-neutral site and is built completely on computer-grade raised flooring; it is built for dedicated server hosting with redundant fibre entry points.
Regulated Climate Control
The data centers HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) system is N+1 redundant. With full particle filtering and humidity control, the environment is maintained at a cool 68 degrees to ensure a comfortable environment for our servers.
Power Systems
Enterprise Digitals new datacenter is not reliant upon the local power grid to guarantee maximum uptime. Our on-site, auto-switched power generator and centralized UPS systems provide power conditioning and ensure uninterrupted data center operation. Additionally, the generator is regularly tested to ensure that it will continue to function in the event of an emergency.
Datacenter Security
The datacenter is physically isolated from everyone but level three technicians. Public access is strictly forbidden. Access to the floor the datacenter resides on is restricted and completely locked down.
Location
San Antonio, Texas is known for the absence of natural disasters and is on the most seismically stable soil in the US. Additionally, since San Antonio is free from natural disasters, the datacenter is in the perfect location.
