What is "Managed Server Solutions"? |
|
|
|
|
|
Managed Server Hosting is an
extension of our existing hosting services. Along with our powerful
Shared Hosting Solutions, we also provide dedicated servers for websites
and applications that require further customizations that Shared Hosting
can not facilitate.
Using our facility to
complement the service, we are able to provide our customers with a secure
dedicated server for their hosting needs. Our dedicated server
setups are completely customized to fulfill the needs of our clients.

A Dedicated Server is a
complete server housed in our Data Centre that is for the exclusive use of
your site. Shared hosting is a farm of several servers each serving
yours and other peoples sites. Dedicated Server ensures that all the
server resources such as processing power, disk space and memory is
devoted to your site which can often improve performance for sites that
require more resources.
Dedicated server solutions are
often a more ideal choice over Shared Hosting in cases where a website is
using E-commerce applications, SSL, or other custom software packages.
Dedicated server can also allow our systems staff to customize the
operating environment for more enhanced operation, security etc.
Dedicated Server can also be
an ideal and economical choice if you require larger disk space or larger
package capacity than our shared hosting plans.

Managed Server is another
portion of the Dedicated Service. Many places offer what is called
"Co-Location" where you provide the server hardware, as well as
manage your software and system remotely.
With our Dedicated Server services, we provide the hardware and maintain
its functionality. In addition we also set up the server environment
and maintain that for you as well. This is so that you can focus on
your core business and not have to worry about security updates, software
updates, securing your server, and many other maintenance tasks. We
provide this service for you and we conform to server standards that we
use in all our systems to ensure you the maximum amount of stability.
In addition,
our system staff monitor your server to ensure optimal performance is
achieved. We work with you to implement a solution and
configuration that optimizes for performance and security and
functionality. We also take care of routine hardware upgrades.
We proactively upgrade or replace server hardware to ensure
sustainability as part of our services. We also
maintain an inventory of spare parts should any component fail, and we
are then ready to replace to minimize or eliminate downtime. This
eliminates your need to maintain a hardware support contract, contact
the manufacturer for replacement parts, or experience downtime while
waiting for said parts and service.
So with Managed Server, all
you have to do is maintain your site or application content, and we do the
rest for you. Its a complete worry free solution.

Load Balancing Option |
|
|
|
|
|
In some cases, dedicated
managed clients sites may incur a significant amount of web traffic.
To address this, we provide an additional add on service called Load
Balancing. This is for dedicated clients who wish to implement
server redundancy and allow for greater capacity to their website.
In this case, a client would
have 2 or more servers setup to host their website / application.
Both servers serve the site identically. ParaFX.com then implements
a device in front of your 2 or more servers that distribute client web
requests strategically to both servers.
This is especially handy as a growth avenue for your web application.
In addition another added advantage is that in the event that one of the
servers fail, your website will continue to serve and the Load Balancer
will automatically remove the failed server from service so that it can be
repaired and put back into service. This is recommended to allow
even more website availability.
