Dedicated Server Mirroring

April 16th, 2009 No comments

Do you setup server mirroring ?

Mirrored servers used to avoid any downtime for your dedicated server. We provide mirrored servers solution to our clients by configuring 2 similar servers. We setup servers in 2 different racks out of which one server is the master server and other is slave server. Once you setup a mirrored dedicated server in case, the master server fails then the slave server can immediately take its place without any downtime. We use FAM and RSYNC modules for server mirroring.

What is Failover Process ?
In failover process if the master server goes down then slave server immediately get activated for accepting users or application requests. Failover help to avoid any downtime so your server application runs smoothly.

What is restoration process ?
Restoration process involves copying the up-to-date data from the slave server back to the original location which is the master server. It requires selection of source target and appropriate replication set. Restoration process take place after the Failover to move all recent updated data to master server when its ready to use.

To setup a mirrored server you need to consider our 2 dedicated servers with same configuration. We do not take any additional fees for setup you just need to pay the cost for 2 dedicated servers. Please send us an email at sales@host.co.in for further assistance.

Server Colocation Hosting and Dedicated Server Hosting

March 2nd, 2009 Comments off

With colocation server, you own the server in our data center and we host it for you. We will charge you for the space and bandwidth your server takes up. You have the option of procuring rack space, bandwidth, connection to the Internet, uninterpretable power supply and 24 x 7 server monitoring. You can monitor your servers from a remote location or with occasional visits to the data center for physical access to the co-located machines.

Dedicated Server

The customer owns Web server and gains complete access & control to the server ( Root access for Linux Server & Administrator access for Windows Server) however, the user typically does not own the server. Another type of Dedicated Hosting is Self-Managed or Mismanaged. This is usually the least expensive for Dedicated Hosting plans. The user has full administrative access to the dedicated server, which means the client is responsible for the security and maintenance of his own dedicated server.

What is the difference between Managed and Unmanaged dedicated hosting services ?

September 17th, 2007 Comments off

Managed Dedicated Hosting is for customers who prefer to have their web hosting provider maintain and monitor their dedicated web servers, operating system and all supported applications. Companies or individuals who do not have the required system administration resources on-staff commonly choose this option. Unmanaged dedicated web hosting is for customers who have extensive system administration expertise to maintain and manage their own dedicated servers. This option generally provides hosting customers with full access to their web site server allowing them to customize various configurations and install add on specific programs and scripts.

What is the difference between a dedicated server and co-location hosting ?

September 17th, 2007 Comments off

A dedicated server is a server provided by a web hosting services providing company on rent. You have remote access to the server and you can customize the server to your own requirements. The web host retains ownership of the server and you don’t have actual physical access to the server. Colocation hosting means you store your own server at a facility of a co-location hosting provider. A co-location hosting provider provides an Internet connection to your web server and allows you physical access to your own server when you need it.

Hosting your web sites on your own dedicated web server may seem a little expensive in comparison to shared web hosting, but the end result is more advantageous. Shared web hosting, (many sites are present on the same servers hard drive) no matter how well managed, cannot be 100% reliable and stable. On a dedicated hosting server you will install only software and applications you need, while on a shared hosting server you will find a host of other software and applications installed for all other web server users.
