MojoHost Inks 10G deal with Level3, cancels WV Fiber, upgrades Internap FC Platform
 

Hello Everyone,

We have been a customer of Level3 for most of the last six years but did not yet have a 10 Gigabit agreement ready for execution when our contract for 1 Gigabit service expired on June 30th. Today I am excited to announce MojoHost has signed an agreement with Level3 for 10 Gigabit service starting September 1st. We have tremendous regard for the quality of Level3's network and are excited to have them back in our premium blend of bandwidth.

It was my goal and expectation that today's announcement would represent network expansion. Unfortunately, after a trial of provider WV Fiber in July, MojoHost has decided to discontinue it's 10 Gigabit service with their network. The end result is still excellent, MojoHost has 61 Gigabit of full transit route connectivity plus 2 Gigabit of local peering fabric access.

MojoHost Connectivity Summary:

Level3 Communications 10G
Telecom Italia 10G
Savvis 10G
Hurricane Electric 10G
TeliaSonera 10G
Tata Communications 10G
Global Crossing 1G
Local Peering Fabric 2x1G

Finally, MojoHost has completed an infrastructure upgrade which utilizes the Internap Flow Control Platform (FCP) 10G as a replacement for the FCP 5200 series. We have now significantly increased our ability to optimize BGP routing and provider performance. For more information about the Internap FCP 10G click here.

If you would like more information about our network or services please feel free to contact me directly anytime.

Sincerely,

Brad Mitchell

congrats on the expansion, Brad :thumbsup

congrats brad

Congrats!

Congrats :)

Congrats!

Thank you! We are always working hard to give our clients the best possible experience. I am quite proud of what we have accomplished just year-to-date and am really looking forward to everything that I have in development coming to fruition also.

Yes, I said 'fruit' :1orglaugh

Sincerely,

Brad

Congrats Brad! Hopefully that means you got a better per gigabit rate too ;)
hehehehe. Congrats on the always growing empire!

Awesome !!!!

:thumbsup

Congrats - while I do not host with you, your honesty in telling me my set up you can not properly support and refer me to another host puts you in a class of its own.

That's just how we roll :thumbsup Next year we will be doing much more in the Microsoft world, more than just the streaming we do now.

Best Wishes,

Brad

10g???!!!!! What if I want a 60GB HDD??? Can I send you mine and you can upgrade it??

i will check that out personally this weekend, i expect a big cable that says "level 3" ;)

AWESOME! please please please have MSSQL back up support.

.NET (C#) and MSSQL are going to take over the world one day. I'm suprised more adult is not using it. It really just blows PHP/MySQL out of the water. :upsidedow

That is a fuckload of bandwidth...

can I quote you on that ?:winkwink:

MOJOHOST makes me all warm inside........:liebe028:

congrats with that :)

You so silly, you know I'm talkin about connectivity not hard drive space right? lol

Hrmmm. I'm going to have to lie and point out the yellow one that used to belong to another carrier, Level3's not getting turned up until the last week of this month. :winkwink:

This is all on my list somewhere... Crazy is having over 700 servers and less than 20 that are Windows. Never would have guessed that 6 years ago.

I'm definitely quoting you on that! hehehe

Warm and fuzzies right back at ya!

:pimp

Brad

With everyone in a race to the bottom we do our best to stay two steps ahead and have competitive buy rates so that we can continue to improve the service while reducing pricing. :thumbsup

Brad

Congrats.....

That's quite a selection of carriers, good work Brad :thumbsup

Brad -

You seem to really know your stuff. Just wondering if you have any certs? (MCSE, CCNA ect)

Stuck days later still a one page thread...

Congrats Brad that is awesome. You are always trying to improve things constantly and I love having you as a host.

Congrats Brad

great news from a great host :thumbsup

Very nice! Congrats on the upgrade!

Congrats Brad! Love your services already after a short time and will be expanding my hosting with you for sure. :)

brad & corey, thanks again for the great datacenter tour. next time i'll pull the plug on youtube ;)

Congrats MojoHost! Brad is always looking out (I mean, who asks if you want your Red Bull sugar-free or not?!?!)!

Congrats dude!!

quite the bling bling as far as bandwidth goes

hey brad, can you hit me up when you have the chance. we were looking to ship you some servers for colo. ;)

Brad, Congrats! MOJOHOST is a great hosting company. Highly Recommended!!

Thank you, sir! I guarantee that we have much more in store, too.

We don't do much in the Microsoft realm but yes there are some certifications floating around our support staff. We do skills testing up front and significant training post-hire so honestly this isn't something that we keep track of.

We've been busy with other pinned announcements the last two weeks.. so finally this one gets a turn. The thread replies aren't truly my goal, really it's just the page views and getting solid information out there that I focus on :)

Its having clients like you that make all things possible for us!

We're ready when you are :thumbsup

hehehehe.. It's a bonus that when we give a tour that we are also able to show off our neighbors. Those were some pretty cool Rackable Systems they had deployed in that cage.

I'm a host, it's my job to be hospitable...... :) Any woman who appreciates a drink made the right way is a woman after my own heart!

I will find you on ICQ shortly!



Cheers,

Brad

Congrats guys, may I ask why you guys cancelled your contract with WV Fiber?

Congrats Brad.

I would love to share my rationale but it would be inappropriate to disclose our exact reasons for discontinuing service. WV Fiber operates a large international network that serves *many* of our competitors, several ISPs and enterprises of all sizes and types.

What I can share is that we have very high expectations for performance and reliability from our carriers. Our clients pay for exceptional service and we are committed to exceeding their expectations. This was actually MojoHost's second experience on WV Fiber's network in the last twelve months. After giving them this second opportunity to do business with MojoHost we came to the conclusion (again) that they were not ideally suited to participate in our premium carrier blend.

Sincerely,

Brad Mitchell

can someone please send you down to Georgia to solve their problems with the Russians? :winkwink:

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
