The Advanced
Hosting Platform and what it Offers:
This High Availability Load Optimizing architecture or HALO architecture offers
much more than other hosting providers now available at low, shared hosting
prices. Keep on reading for a view of all that this system has to offer.
Built-In Security
This architecture was designed with security in mind. The servers are hosted
behind a couple of Network Firewalls, the Company's, the System's and
it is also protected by multiple NetScreen-500 firewalls - defending your system
from hack attacks with their protection.
Firewall Features include:
* Port Blocking - Open ports on a server are prone to unauthorized
access from hackers. This service locks all unnecessary
ports and forbids the opening of "back doors".
* Redundancy - NetScreen-500 firewalls feature hot-swap hardware
modules thus offer maximum availability and reliable performance.
* Security Administration - The dedication of the security
staff has extensive experience with security attacks and has the know-how to
help keep your systems up and running quickly
and effectively.
* Affordability - This firewall protection service costs far
less than the salary of a part-time firewall administrator. Expensive front-end
costs and draining maintenance expenses are eliminated for maximum return.
Built-In Load Balancing
It also provides a sophisticated, dependable load-balancing solution that's
integral to our shared plans. The shared plans use Foundry Load Balancers
that redirect, incomming traffic to servers with lower loads to increase
performance, reliability, and redundancy making sure that your
site is not significantly affected by other server/site traffic.
Built-In Server Redundancy
This architecture's redundant server architecture was designed with the intention
of eliminating most potential points of hardware service
interruption. With the ability to balance the processing power and
web traffic, the shared servers have the redundancy and speed to serve the
most demanding online applications.
Built-In Network Attached Storage (NAS)
Network Attached Storage (NAS) keeps your site up and running even during routine
maintenance. NAS stores your site's data off of the computer/server that
is serving applications to your site. By seperating the Data & Web services, your
site performs better and is less likely to lose any stored data.
Built-In Proactive Server Management
All Shared Plans include unique proactive monitoring services. The service
monitors your server and watches over your web site's code. Should your server
run a bad script or piece of code, it is stoped on the server, then provides
an error description and a suggested fix report, on the serrver. This architecture
also proactively patrols the web servers, eliminating
any illegal processes that could harm or slow your site.
