Mercury.Net is a web portal designed to
provide fleet professionals with access to leading edge
technology solutions, industry articles, repair manuals for
light and heavy equipment, video conferencing, news groups and
bulletin boards, and on-line consulting. Virtually no other
fleet management consulting firm offers this wide-array of
solutions that simplify this otherwise complex business.

Our data center contains raised-floor, redundant power, HVAC, card-key
and biometric scan access, security guards, and hands-on support around
the clock. Our industry standard equipment racks are 8’ tall by 19” wide
with combination locks on each cabinet. All racks are bolted to the
raised-floor tiles, which in turn are secured to the floor pedestals.
The data center is designed to ensure uninterrupted service, with full
redundancy built into the facility. Redundant UPS systems are deployed
in an N+1 parallel, failsafe configuration. Backup power generators
provide for up to 100% of peak load with an on-site fuel supply of 24
hours, and there is a provision for refueling contracts in the event of
an extended power failure. The UPS / battery backup and emergency
generators provide enough backup power to keep our facility at
operational at maximum load. Moreover, the Automatic Transfer Switch
(ATS) provides a smooth transition from the UPS/battery backup to the
generator backup in the event of power loss from the utility company.

Another notable attribute of our platform is its bandwidth
capacity (i.e. the amount of data that we can move from our data
center to our clients at any one time). Our data center uses an
OC-192 connection, which the adjacent table illustrates is the
second largest network bandwidth capacity available in the world
with gigabytes of capacity. This means that our clients will always
experience optimal platform response performance. Additionally, our
data center provides multiple routes for data to travel, which
provides reliability as well as increased performance.
Moreover, we have connectivity to several other data centers
throughout the world for additional communications redundancy - 57
in the United States and 27 in Europe. Virtually no other vendor in
the fleet industry offers this level of communications redundancy
and data throughput capabilities.

In
addition to having a world-class data center our support team and

year around. Our team of highly trained Systems Administrators, Database
Administrators and Network Engineers pro-actively manage the platform
and respond to system issues that can affect system availability and
performance. Subscription clients have access to our support staff by
e-mail, instant messaging, telephone, and facsimile. This means
