Enhanced services for Domicilium

Domicilium are pleased to announce that we have completed the implementation of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) giving our Internet and hosting customers an unrivalled level of resilience.  Domicilium already have backbone feeds from two top level providers but with BGP all our clients are automatically protected from network failures from either provider.

Phil Adcock, Technical Director said “The completion of our BGP implementation allows us to offer a truly world class service which can compete head on with global players such as BT, Cable and Wireless and UUNet.  We are the only Island based ISP that is connected to the Internet via two independent backbone providers and BGP means that our customers stay on-line if one of these providers fail.  It was one of the building blocks missing from the Isle of Man in comparison with other jurisdictions and it is an enormous credit to our technical team that we have successfully complete this complex task.  We are also now an Internet Registry which confirms our presence on the global internet map.  As an Internet Register we can issue our own independent Internet (IP) addresses”.

Commenting on the introduction of the new service, Robin Fallaize, Sales Manager said, “We believe BGP is a fundamental quality standard for an international hosting company and business ISP.  We are experiencing significant growth in all areas of our business and we are very pleased that this level of resilience is now available to all customers.  We would also like to thank all of our customers for their patience during the changes to becoming an Internet Registry.”
