A year in review…
Now that 2009 is nearing its end, its time to review where things are and where we are going.
We started the year with an expansion of fractional cabinet services by adding Quarter Cabinet (9U) Secure Colocation. The first quarter cabinet rack sold out in 30-days. Given the immediate interest, we will focus heavily on the quarter cabinet products, especially since VMware environments are getting smaller and smaller. We have full rack customers that can now migrate into a quarter rack running just a few servers.
VPS was also a new service addition for 2009. Our high-end guaranteed non-oversubscribed VPS platforms are doing very well, and they are a nice compliment to our existing web and email hosting segment.
We also saw increasing growth in out T1 and T3 DIA business. The biggest road block has been getting the word out to businesses in Philadelphia that Quonix Networks has the most competitively priced DIA circuits, not to mention the best IP network.
The icing on the cake for 2009 was finalizing plans on our new Harrisburg, PA datacenter. This facility is scheduled to open by the end of 1st quarter 2010. The Central PA location is ideal for Philadelphia based customers looking for a secondary DR location that is 100 miles away, but still convenient enough for daily commute.
2009 was a great year, but we expect 2010 to be even better. Some of our plans for 2010 include lit fiber optic services in Metro Philadelphia and Point-to-Point Metro Wifi.
