Internap's Managed GigE and Flow Control Platform Products

Selected to Enhance Performance, Scalability & Cost

Management for Growing Firm

Internap Network Services Corporation (AMEX:IIP), the leading provider of performance-based routing technology over the Internet, announced today that one of the top business data centers in the metropolitan Denver area, Data393, Inc., has expanded its use of Internap's high-performance IP services to keep pace with the demands of its growing customer base.

Under the agreement, Data393 has chosen Internap's gigabit Ethernet connections to link its co-location center in the Inverness Business Park with Private Network Access Point (P-NAP) facilities from Internap. Data393 also selected Internap's premised-based Flow Control Platform(TM) (FCP Model 500), which will provide additional intelligent route control and management capabilities between Data393's various locations.

"We've been very impressed with Internap and had no question in expanding our relationship with them," noted Lee Woodward, president of Data393. "We needed the extra capacity to handle the traffic generated by our fast growth. The FCP product suite provides us with even more flexibility in helping our customers optimize their Internet performance and manage costs across multi-homed solutions."

Woodward said the Internap enhancements allow Data393 to provide its customers with as many as eight connections to Tier 1 network service providers, so they can intelligently route their Internet traffic over the best-performing routes.

"Internap's dynamic routing allows our customers' web sites to avoid congestion at public peering points and bottlenecks that routinely arise within the networks of any single carrier," he said. "The Flow Control Platform virtually eliminates any manual intervention in case of a provider outage. Ultimately, we believe these combined capabilities will allow us to win customers with more sophisticated application requirements, and continue to sustain our rapid growth."

"Internap's patented intelligent route control technology provides Data393 with expanded capabilities to effectively manage multiple ISP connections," added Dave Abrahamson, vice president of sales and chief marketing officer at Internap. "Internap's technology allows Data393 and other hosting service providers the ability to provide their customers with reliable, high-performance IP connectivity solutions."
