E Solutions has successfully upgraded it’s infrastructure to support the IPv6 network, making it the first data center in the state of Florida to utilize the next generation IPv6 network and provide this platform to it’s customers."Our exclusive availability of IPv6 bandwidth coupled with our available power capacity and premium data center space, has E Solutions well positioned as an area leader today and well into the future, the dramatic spread of Internet adoption has dictated that IPv6 is where the Internet is headed," said Richard Nicholas, E Solutions’ CEO. "We are excited to take the lead in the state of Florida as the only Data Center offering IPv6 bandwidth."IPv6 is the successor to IPv4, which is the current IP protocol version used on the Internet. With the increase in Internet use, bandwidth and capacity demands, the IPv4 address space is likely to be exhausted, therefore IPv6 remains a technology that is gradually being adopted by technically savvy network operators. The U.S. Federal Government and the Research and Education community represent some of the earliest adopters of IPv6 across North America and Europe.More Information: IPv6 is a service provided by E-Solutions to customers. It is also the upcoming standard of IP connectivity throughout the US and in particular Govt agencies in the US. http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/b-1-information.html#IPV6 Dates have been set by congress by which all branches of the military must be migrated to IPv6. At the moment, E-Solutions is the only facility in this region that can offer these services.
