Network Infrastructure

You need a comprehensive IT outsourcing alternative that enhances network dependability and security, eliminates management hassle and saves you money. Our Server Hosting Services combine proven virtualization technology, an advanced data center and the support expertise of our Microsoft Gold Certified engineering. You can have all of your software platforms and critical applications hosted in a secure and fault-tolerant data center on a fast, non-stop virtual host configured and maintained by our network engineers. By using virtualization technology, we can optimize the fault tolerance, security, performance, scalability, recoverability and portability of your environment, while keeping hosting expenses at a minimum. You retain ownership of the operating system platform and all application licenses, while we own the physical host servers and are responsible for their maintenance. This means that you don’t have to invest heavily in capital equipment that quickly becomes outdated. Virtualization also means that you can easily and inexpensively move your entire IT environment to another host if and when such a move makes business sense.

A Smart Outsourcing Alternative for Small Businesses

Small businesses typically lack the money or the management time to build and maintain an information network that can match the dependability, security and support provided by larger companies. Unfortunately, network downtime, unresolved technical problems, security breaches, poor performance and low service levels all impair productivity for businesses of any size, and in the case of small companies, the relative damage caused by a serious network problem can be far greater than for a larger organization. Mission-critical and line-of-business applications are, by definition, vital to any organization. Larger enterprises have the economy of scale to build network infrastructures and hire IT support staffs that provide acceptably high degrees of reliability, security, performance and support. Small companies like yours, on the other hand, do not.

Our outsourced Server Hosting Services give you the benefits of enterprise-class IT infrastructure and world-class support services at a cost that is typically lower than what you would pay for building and managing everything in-house.

How Virtual Hosting Differs from Conventional Application Hosting

With ASP (Application Service Provider) or SaaS (Software as a Service) hosting models, you own your corporate data, but not the operating system platforms or the application licenses for the software. Small businesses with limited IT budgets effectively become captive to their hosting service, since it is so expensive and time-consuming to move from an ASP or SaaS hosting service to another hosting provider or to bring the entire system in house.

With our Hosting Services, you own the data, the OS platforms and the software applications. And, because the environment is virtualized, it can be moved immediately to a different hardware environment without lengthy and risky reinstallation and configuration. You are not held captive to a single hosting service.

Another benefit of the virtualized architecture of our Hosting Services is that data can be recovered quickly if a catastrophic event such as a natural disaster occurs. Since the virtual environment is regularly backed up and archived off-site, it can be hosted by any physical server acting as the underlying host to the virtual environment.

We can also host environments with a mix of operating system platforms and applications and little standardization. This type of environment is common for small businesses but is not addressed by application hosting services and is difficult to support for any hosting service that does not utilize a virtualized architecture or that does not retain a support staff with the depth and breadth that we do.
