| Redundant Co Located web hosting |
Our web hosting servers connect to the Internet through multiple redundant
connections provided by some of the largest backbone providers
in the world - UUNET, Genuity, Global Crossing and Applied
Theory - ensuring data delivery to the end user in the
fastest, most efficient manner possible. We guarantee
99.9% uptime by utilising redundant connections at data
centres in two separate USA locations - Connecticut and
Chicago.
- Both
networks are fully switched with top quality components
from Cisco Systems.
- The
entire N.O.C. is wired with 100Mbps UTP Category 5
wiring.
- Chicago
has 2 DS-3's (45Mbps) and 1 OC3 (155Mbps) on separate
and diverse backbones (UUNET, Genuity and Global Crossing).
- Connecticut
has 3 DS-3's (45Mbps) on separate and diverse backbones
(Genuity, Global Crossing, Applied Theory).
Border Gate Protocol (BGP4). BGP4 protocol is the standard
that allows for routing of packets of information sent
out from the dula location Network, thus creating a
truly redundant network by routing traffic over the
most efficient route possible. Due to our redundant
entirely switched Cisco powered network, data is automatically
redirected through another route in the event of a router
failure. Should one of our backbone providers fail,
packets are automatically redirected through another
one. |

| Bandwidth monitorsing and load switching Cisco routers |
| Top-of-the-line Cisco Systems backbone
grade routers on the core layer and Layer 3 switching
on the distribution layer providing superior segmentation
and increased bandwidth across the backbone. Each server
is connected to its own switched 100Mbps port reducing
congestion. This configuration provides maximum uptime
in the event one of our providers faces an outage. Bandwidth
utilisation is continuously monitored, allowing us to
accommodate even the largest bandwidth surges.
It is a misconception that the amounts of bandwidth
(size of the pipes that carry the data) differentiate
web hosting companies. In reality it is not the size
of the pipe that matters so much as the utilisation
levels . We have multiple redundant connections which
allow us to guarantee customers a maximum of 60 per
cent capacity utilisation at peak times and an average
of 40 per cent utilisation across our network. |
| Monitoring Servers and Networks |
| Both Network Operations centres (NOCs) have 24/7 network
monitoring by highly qualified network engineers and
administrators. Our NOCs monitor the HTTP port, and
conduct Ping tests every 5 minutes to confrim the servers
are continually active. The NOCs generate real-time
status, notification and forecasting of network events
for staff, Support technicians are also online 24/7
to answer questions or attend to any customer's needs
as all part of the service |
