Managing a 48 hour burst of tens of thousands of Gold Coast Airport Marathon participants wanting to see their live race results online takes some serious IT resources.
The Gold Coast Airport Marathon would not be the success it is without trusted local sponsors, who year after year have quietly helped behind the scenes.
One such partner is Gold Coast based Internet Services Provider OntheNet.
OntheNet is ideally located near the physical data network collecting competitors’ race results and uses significant technical resources in their Data Centre located at Varsity Lakes to handle the huge burst of viewer activity during and immediately after the event.
Their network and virtual server scalability has certainly matched the event’s growing requirements, providing great comfort to the organisers for many years.
Managing Director Tak Woo said OntheNet were proud partners of Australia’s leading marathon.
“OntheNet is very proud to have played such an important and integral role for the Gold Coast Airport Marathon while also displaying our scale and capability.”
OntheNet is an Internet Services Provider and Hosting company based on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia.
Established in 1995, OntheNet delivers broadband technologies from ADSL2+ to Fibre based services to many Gold Coast, Brisbane and national business customers.
In more recent years the company has delivered Data Centre co-location and Virtual Private Server solutions and many combinations of the product range.
