Some partners could not access their FTP accounts this week because they were using our old IP address. If you cannot login to FTP please check to make sure the site is listed as emediatrade.net (preferred) or 208.52.133.98.

Server Relocation

To all eMediaTRADE and Texscan customers:  

EMT is planning to relocate our server infrastructure to a Tier III hosting facility in Atlanta. This move has been planned for some time and we have set a date of Friday, June 8 2012 at 90:00pm Eastern to begin the move. This means that all EMT services, servers and products will be unavailable during the relocation. We anticipate having all services online and available by 9:00am on Monday, June 11.

 

This move will provide EMT with an advanced infrastructure for operational stability and high availability now, will give us room for expanding our current services, and will allow us to offer new products and services in the future. For those interested in the details of our new facility I have provided them below.

 

Thank you for being an eMediaTRADE customer!

 

Tier III Data Center is a 15,000 square foot facility that was constructed in 2007 in Atlanta. The building sits on solid granite with 18 inch thick concrete floors, steel frame and concrete block walls with a brick outlay and an insulated membrane roof. This data center was designed with redundant capacity components and multiple independent distribution paths serving the computer equipment. This means that critical systems can be taken offline for scheduled maintenance without impact to the IT environment. The average annual impact of maintenance and unplanned outages in this data center results in 99.98 percent availability.
