Crisis-management framework
In preparation for disasters and accidents, our host computer is housed in a contract data center built on the firm ground in Shinagawa in Tokyo, with earthquake-resistance strength against up to level 7.5 on the Japanese earth quake scale. If electricity supply to the center is disrupted for whatever reason, its private electrical power facility will keep the system 100% operative independently for maximum 10 days.
In case of any emergency staff members of our IT Service Team are available 24/7 through mobile phones and PCs.
Furthermore, we have adopted a system structure with dual host computers and Web servers in addition to duplex communication lines and power sources:
- The host computer is in hot standby and, in case of machine trouble or failure, operation will resume by the standby machine within one hour.
- The Web server will be restored within 30 minutes after occurrence of any event.
Hardware maintenance
Under our thorough and constant monitoring, management and maintenance of our computer equipment including host computers and WEB servers are entrusted to a proven, experienced data center in order to ensure safe and accurate operation.
