AS11115 ONLINE-TECH-LLC

ONLINE-TECH-LLC is held by Otava, LLC — the Michigan hosting and colocation provider formerly known as Online Tech, which rebranded to OTAVA in 2019. It sells compliance-focused cloud: colocation, hybrid and managed cloud audited against HIPAA, PCI DSS and SOC 2, from data centres in the Detroit and Flint areas.

What it's used for

Provider hosting and colocation. RIS observes 12 announced IPv4 prefixes totalling 9,728 addresses and one IPv6 prefix, 2606:5200:c000::/36. The prefix list looks longer than the address count implies because Otava announces both aggregates and more-specifics of the same space: 205.145.128.0/20 also appears as /21s, and 72.13.0.0/20 likewise. Deaggregating a block into its halves is standard traffic-engineering for a multi-site host that wants to pull specific ranges toward specific facilities.

The rest is a handful of /24s (216.71.161.0/24, 216.71.164.0/24, 216.71.186.0/24, 216.71.188.0/24, 64.9.194.0/24, 192.103.131.0/24).

Notable

The registration record tracks the company's own history rather than contradicting it. Prefixes are registered variously to ONLINE-TECH-INC, ONLINETECH-LLC and OTL-22 — the old corporate name, the LLC, and an Otava-era handle. Those are not unrelated third parties; they are the same business at three points in its life, which is exactly what you expect from a firm that started as a 1990s regional dial-up outfit and became a compliance-cloud provider. One /24 sits under a separate ANCOR24 object, consistent with a colocation customer's own assignment.

Three observed BGP neighbours fits a hosting provider buying transit into its own facilities rather than acting as a carrier for others.
