Previously on the CoreXchange blog, we discussed “burstable billing”—commonly implemented in the form of “95th percentile billing”— a useful method that makes it possible to accurately set up your billing structure around a committed bandwidth usage level, avoiding extra fees for unplanned usage “bursts” over that threshold that might occur from time to time.

Burstable billing, often known as “95th percentile billing,” is an excellent way to tailor bandwidth available around a company’s specific needs and protect against unexpected spikes in billable Internet traffic.

Why colocation? Why not just keep your company’s IT infrastructure in-house?

Simply put, our enterprise-class Dallas data centers are designed specifically to address the core IT infrastructure needs of most businesses. As we mentioned before, our Dallas colocation facilities include unmatched power, cooling, security, and space features.

Colocation involves providing hardened space, highly managed environmentals, power & cooling, physical security, and connectivity to telecommunications and network service providers for your servers and networking equipment. This cocoon of elements allows our customers to focus on their core business and save money and time in the process.

Good news — CoreXchange has achieved audit compliance with the AICPA’s Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16, SOC-1 Type II. We’ll explain:

Basically, the SSAE Standard is a rigorous set of standards mantained by the AICPA (less commonly known as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) — a 125-year-old nationwide network of CPAs who act as a sort of army determined to enforce quality control in many American businesses. The standard’s goal is to ensure that companies like ours can do what we tell customers we can do. Here at CoreXChange, we’re not interested in meeting the SSAE Standard — we’re determined to exceed the standard and improve colocation services in Dallas in every possible way.
