Deployed Highly Scalable Web Hosting

As a small company, Capone Technology turned to self-hosting and Amazon cloud services to keep IT costs low. In the beginning stages of the company’s growth, these solutions were adequate to meet the demands that Capone Technology had at the time. As the business continued to grow and attempted to reach larger clients and compete with larger and more established competitors, the self-hosting and Amazon cloud combination was no longer cost effective, which limited profitability and impacted the user experience. The company then found itself in the bind of needing to find a data center solution that offered increased bandwidth and power availability while still allowing the company to stay on budget. If the service provider were too expensive, the gains from working together would not outweigh the pressures of the additional cost. The challenge was to find a way to improve Capone’s bandwidth and power without breaking the bank. Capone Technology sought to solve the problem by working with local experts in the South Florida market to tailor a data hosting plan to their unique needs. Capone Technologies needed a hosting provider that could identify the services and technologies needed to solve the problem without taking on additional, unnecessary services to the package. After meeting with and interviewing a number of top data centers in the area, Capone Technology settled on Volico to meet their data center and colocation needs. Capone Technology and Volico worked hand in hand to design and implement a service level plan that increased bandwidth, offered reliable uptime and ensured disaster recovery without raising costs astronomically. By utilizing a 42U cabinet and 20amps of power, Volico was able to offer Capone technology 10mbps BGP bandwidth upon which to operate their hosting operations in South Florida. The increase in power and bandwidth allowed the company to effectively host their clients while increasing their daily Amazon hits from 10,000 to 50 million without any noticeable loss of power.
