The Newtek High Performance Cloud

As one of the two flagship offerings on the Newtek High Performance Cloud™ (NHPC), our new data storage offering provides users with a high-level combination of performance, reliability, and support that you'd be hard-pressed to find anywhere else in the industry. It's a bold statement that we back up with an incredible infrastructure, aggressive engineering, and a support staff that's been providing world-class service since we opened our doors in 1997.

 

Our data storage service, currently in beta release, features the following:

  • Redundant architecture
  • Unlimited storage space
  • Ability to store file sizes up to 5 GB
  • Simple, consumption-based billing — only pay for the storage space you use
  • Industry standard APIs to tightly integrate your applications
  • 24/7/365 US-based support via phone, email, and live chat
  • No contracts

 

OpenStack

Our flexible data storage service offers developers a simple web service to tightly integrate their applications.  We're utilizing the "Swift" portion of the open source cloud-computing project "OpenStack," which is free open source software released under the terms of the Apache license.  Swift is a highly available, distributed, and eventually consistent data store.

Swift utilizes the OpenStack RESTful API, which is based on the existing Rackspace Cloud API (published under Creative Commons in 2009). The project is built in a way that allows multiple APIs to be supported, which will also allow us to add support for the Amazon model. 

 

A Proven Infrastructure

NHPC utilizes advanced clustering techniques built on Microsoft® Certified Dell Blade Servers and Microsoft® Certified Compellent SAN Storage.  Our cloud infrastructure is housed in a state-of-the-art data center located in Phoenix, Arizona, which features redundant power supplies, including battery backups and multiple onsite diesel generators, and multiple Tier-1 connectivity providers.
