Development Software

Our servers utilize:

Backups

We are backup fanatics. All databases are backed up incrementally to one on-site, and two off-site locations, every half hour. Web files and e-mail are backed up every few hours to these same locations. Our incremental backups allow retrieval of nearly every version of every file for up to six months. So if you need a copy of a file that was on our servers last Wednesday, we can get that version to you.

Our Support Team

Support requests are directed to our highly trained support techs who are always backed up by at least one on-site programmer and a systems administrator who are available for e-mail, Skype External link , and phone support.

Our Network

All services (e-mail, web, database, etc.) and network connections are monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. We are automatically notified of outages and irregularities in connectivity, security, temperature and humidity via audio and visual alarms, e-mails, pages and text messages.

All of the hardware used on our network is redundant. Spare servers, drives switches, routers, etc. are always at hand for easy replacement should something fail. All servers implement hardware RAID (1 or 5), multiple network cards, and redundant power supplies for mission critical machines. All of our servers are dual-processor, dual-core, or quad-core machines.

We're fans of Linux External link servers for their speed and reliablity. We run CentOS External link , Apache External link , and MySQL External link . We optimize all of our servers for speed and reliability.

Our connection to the Internet is triple redundant. If one connection fails, traffic is automatically routed through the other available connections. This is possible through BGP peering with Sprint, Global Crossing and Qwest. Additionally, our network intelligently decides which of our connections is the shortest distance between your customer and our servers and routes traffic accordingly.

If there is anything else that you need to know, drop us a line.

Our Ridiculous Referral Program

For each site that you refer to us we'll give you three months of free hosting credit. Just make sure the new client mentions your name when they sign up.

Once you have referred 5 sites to us, we'll pay you 15% of the hosting charges of all the clients you've ever referred to us. In cash, not trade. We haven't found a better referral program than this anywhere!
