Managed Hosting and Dedicated Managed Hosting Services

Dedicated Servers

Our fully managed dedicated servers offer you the very best in performance, uptime and security. You will receive pro-active server management, which means we look after every aspect of managing your server/s including security, software updates, monitoring and day to day maintenance. This allows you to fully to concentrate on growing your business, without the day to day worries of server management.

We can also provide a semi-managed service for customers who prefer more interaction with the day to day management of their server. This is ideal for businesses with in-house technical expertise who are looking to reduce costs, but still require a level of technical back-up from us.

High Availability Solutions

With the massive growth of the Internet and online commerce so many companies are dependent on having no disruption to online services such as their websites and email. Just the smallest of outages can often have a dramatic effect, costing companies thousands and sometimes millions in lost revenues. From our own experience in running one of the largest UK hosting companies, we certainly appreciate the importance of providing a service that offers the maximum uptime for your business.

We also understand that every business is different and doesn't necessarily have the budget to afford hugely expensive systems with multiple levels of resilience. That's why our experienced systems architects will work with you to deliver a solution that limits single points of failure, achieving the highest possible uptime at budget that suits.

Private Cloud Hosting

There is a lot of buzz around cloud computing currently and many hosting providers are scrambling to launch so called cloud offerings. However, in many respects cloud computing its not actually so new as it's been around for many years, it just wasn't labelled as "cloud" and was often called grid computing.

So what is cloud computing?

Cloud computing is all about having computing resources and software on demand, much like the electricity grid. Cloud offerings use virtualised hardware which is usually designed to have the flexility to scale up and down quickly to meet the changing demands of its users, making it much more efficient in controlling costs and not wasting valuable resources.

Amazon EC2 is probably the most well known public cloud platform and like many mass shared cloud platforms it has its limitations, often lacking the flexibility to meet the requirements for everyone, which leads to compromises and inefficiencies in its offering. With a public cloud offering you are also sharing resources with other users, which can have an affect on the service levels you receive.

Our managed Private Cloud offerings provide you with your own dedicated environment where the hardware and resources are for your usage only. Our specialists will work with you to design this environment to your exact requirements using the very latest virtualisation technologies, allowing you to create and manage multiple virtual machines within a set of physical servers.

With a Private Cloud environment the possibilities are endless, for more information contact us today!
