Google to bid on mobile airways. Does anyone wonder why?
Reuters has an item saying tht Google will bid on scarce wireless spectrum airways today. The available bandwidth is seen as the last opportunity for a new wireless carrier in the US. Anticipation for the arrival of a Googlephone in these parts have been exceeded only by anticipation for the departure of the current American president or for Godot in an Irish Park.
Maybe there are other reasons for Google to go for the bandwidth, but I cannot think of one.

The ever growing demand for hosting data information from large organizations or companies pose a new challenge to the in house IT personel. Everyday new business requirements come up and new technologies are emerging. To keep the facilities running in top shape every year, servers and network infrastructure are upgraded. In our institute, we have an annual budget for upgrading the facilities to support the mail server, web server, database server, file server and more.
In house network administrators, and network support staff are on stand by duty, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The network facility which connects the servers to the outside world is constantly monitored and checked. A pool of network engineers and administrators are taking care of the systems and network facilities. Even with the manpower taking care of the system it is inevitable that down times occur.
To lessen the impact of those down times a colocation dedicated server is employed with the commercial Internet Service Provider (ISP). The presence of the colocation server allows for some in house maintenance work to be performed without affecting any online experience by outsiders accessing to the various web services provided by the institute. This also allows a good back up when in times of unscheduled downtimes due to over loads or viral attacks. It allows also faster access to the online information of the institute as it’s hosted in a direct line of the fiber optic internet hub backbone.
Investing in a new dedicated server in a colocation site will be a practical move. There are also options for custom dedicated servers which let’s the owner choose and customize the hardware, operating system, software and all other additional services that might be needed specifically by the organization or business.
http://www.colocationamerica.com allows businesses to focus more on their core business rather than on the IT systems and network infrastructure. It’s a practical and economical solution to the ever growing IT needs.
