I'm sorry, however, we are no longer offering High Availability services. We will be introducing a generation of services soon that will replace this offering, however. Current customers using our HA services will be supported and services will remain up.

High Availability (HA) hosting gives you the reliablity, performance, and uptime (99.99%) that your site deserves. Our HA hosting expands on the our proven clustered hosting setup and adds load balancing for each service. Web, email, and MySQL services are all clustered and load balanced on physically separate servers. This gives redundancy, reliability, and fast services for your site. Our solutions are also scalable, so if more power is ever needed we can simply add a new server for that service. If there is ever a surge in activity, a standby server is always available to take the stress off the other servers. All our servers are Dell Blades using a minimum of a Dual Core, Dual Xeon processor with a minimum of 4 GB of RAM (with more in the MySQL servers).

HA Hosting Overview

  • Redundant setup -- down to the switches in the network
  • True Four Nine Uptime -- 99.99% monthly Uptime Guaranteed
  • Services clustered and load balanced -- giving more resources per service and redundancy
  • Files are stored on a HA SAN arrays with RAID 10 with SAS 15k drives
  • Standby server(s) to take the stress off other servers during high traffic periods
  • Predictive hardware failure analysis
  • Multiple HA node arrays are used to spread resources even further
  • All servers use Dell Blade technology with redundant and hot swapable servers -- so if there is ever any hardware problems, they can be resolved without taking the array out of production.

HA hosting are for sites that have too much resource usage for shared hosting, but not enough for their own dedicated server. From personal sites to business sites, High Availability fits in perfectly. Sites that constantly receive large amount of traffic from sites such as Digg, Slashdot and other similar sites, benefit from HA hosting as they keep their sites up, without impacting other customers -- which then risks hosts from suspending or otherwise limiting their sites. Stop the "./" and digg effect from crippling your site!
