Corporation (NASDAQ: INAP), ("INAP" or the "Company"), a provider
of high-performance Internet infrastructure including Colocation,
Network and Managed Services, and Cloud Services, today announced
that despite widespread flooding and damage caused by Hurricane
Harvey in Houston and the
surrounding areas, INAP's Houston
data center remains 100% operational for its entire product
portfolio and the company has pledged resources toward the recovery
efforts.
"Despite a reported 51 inches of rain in Houston and the surrounding areas, our data
center remains dry and secure, with extra staff on hand to provide
on-site, proactive support for our clients who are critically
dependent on our services," said Corey
Needles, INAP COLO's SVP and General Manager.
INAP's Network Operations Center (NOC) continues to inspect and
monitor the facilities and the services utilized by INAP customers.
"There have been no network or utility interruptions at our
facility," added Needles. "We've remained open for business and
have facilitated a number of requests for customers who could not
access the data center given the devastation caused by Harvey. Our
network infrastructure has performed exceptionally well during this
unprecedented event and we anticipate no problems for our current
and future clients."
INAP has offered colocation and network services in Houston since 2000, expanding its data center
space at its Fannin Street facility
to meet increasing demand for its services. Not only is the company
committed to providing clients with superior service from this
location, they are also dedicated to supporting the city and local
community. To that end, the company, through its corporate social
responsibility efforts, has pledged support for people impacted by
Hurricane Harvey through an employee fundraiser supplemented with a
donation from the company. "We would like to help the people of
Houston, including our own local
employees. All donations will go directly to the recovery efforts
being led by the American Red Cross," said Peter Aquino, President and CEO. "This is a
devastating event for so many people and we are humbled to be able
to contribute to the recovery."
