Our Dedicated Servers
Hardware:
We only use high quality Dell / HP / Apple / Cisco and Juniper Hardware.
Cost of equipment is relatively unimportant to us as we know that quality product costs more than commodity hardware but over the long term is generally more reliable and easier to install.
We always try and use Intel processors when possible. As of the writing of this document, Intel processors give a better performance per watt than AMD products.
Operating Systems and Control Panel software:
We offer a wide range of operating system for your dedicated server including the recent versions of Microsoft Windows Server Platforms (Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008), we also offer many Linux/UNIX operating systems such as Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Centos, Redhat, OpenBSD, FreeBSD and Mac OSX.
If a simpler approach to administration of the dedicated server is required there are a range of Control panels that can be pre-install to make your administration life easier. Cpanel, Ensim or Plesk software provides a user-friendly interface by which you can make eMail accounts, password protecte directories, you can upload files, install different software and much more without using the command line functionality of your server.

What is the difference between a Dedicated / Shared and Managed Server?
Shared Servers are the entry-level way of having a website or service on the Internet. However along with the low cost you generally get low reliability because of the amount of customers per box, and the server software is also not generally customisable.
A Dedicated Server is a server that is supplied and installed precisely to the client’s specification. You can customise every element on the server; from the hardware, operating system or software.
A managed server is the same as a dedicated server, except that we take over the responsibility of managing the operating system and firewall that protect it for you. With your managed server, all you need to do is provide us with your website or web application and we’ll take care of the configuration, making sure you don’t need extensive know-how to get your website up and running.
If you have more questions, please call or eMail us, we’re always ready to help!
