Hosting
Anyone wants to sell you hosting will go on about reliability, scalability, security and sustainability but, unless you back it up with some facts, none of that means anything. We host all mission critical servers at UK Solutions, one of the UK’s leading hosting facilities for speed and reliability. This allows us the flexibility to offer a range of options to suit every client.
Fully scalable & designed so that additional processor power and entire server instances can be brought online in minutes.
Physical servers:
Run for some of our larger clients, these can be configured & customised to your specifications or our recommendations.
Backup:
Our servers are backed-up daily to data storage on a RAID5 SAN, physically located in an entirely different building for maximum security, reliability and peace of mind.
Management:
Our servers are managed by two, distinct teams. Our in-house sys-admins & developers make-up one team while the facility engineering team are based in the data-centre itself.
Monitoring:
Both automated and manual monitoring of our servers and sites ensures the management teams are alerted to problems within seconds. This ensures our clients enjoy an absolute minimum of server downtime (less than 30 seconds in 2011).
Cutting-edge fire detection systems are situated throughout the facility.
- CCTV coverage
- dedicated site security manager
- anti-tailgating mantrap security doors operated via our proximity access control system
- only authorised individuals have access.
Connected directly to the national grid via two 11kV connections, each fed from separate sub-stations and
backed-up through battery UPS and generators, with enough on-site fuel for a week’s operation. That should cover it.
