99.9% Uptime Guaranteed We have carefully selected a data centre serviced by fibre from multiple telecoms providers and all network equipment is duplicated, enabling us to guarantee and achieve 99.9% uptime.
	High Quality Data Centre Our 4DSite Designer servers are housed in a data centre with UPS and generator power backup, strict environmental control and high levels of security.
	Flexible Data Transfer Options You may monitor your data transfer usage in real time via your control panel and configure email alerts when your server is projected to exceed the included quota. Should you need more data transfer we can charge you for the extra as you use it, or you may increase or decrease your quota at any time.
	Fully Managed Cisco Firewall All traffic from the Internet is filtered by redundant Cisco hardware. Unwanted and malicious traffic is blocked at the network level, reducing your data transfer usage and providing protection from hackers, viruses, worms and trojans.

We have selected servers built from branded components and tested to our uncompromising specification, assuring rock solid performance and dependability.

	Intel Processor & Chipset A fast Intel processor is at the heart of our hosting giving quick dependable performance for your 4DSite Designer dynamic websites.
	DDR Memory A generous amount of the latest DDR memory. When memory is not being used by your website it will automatically be utilised to cache frequently accessed files and data giving an additional speed boost.
	Hot Swappable Seagate Hard Disks Fast disk space in which to store your files and data. The strain placed on the drive's moving parts by constant operation in a server environment makes the selection of this component critical. We have found the consistency and performance of Seagate disks to be unmatched, even by other big name manufacturers, which is why we specify them for all our hosting solutions.
	Hardware RAID Controller We host on servers with the 3ware RAID controller card which mirrors writes to your hard disks and speeds up file access by balancing read requests across both drives. In the event of a disk failure, all requests are served by the remaining drive, the operation of your server is uninterrupted and no data is lost. Again without interrupting the operation of the server, the failed disk is replaced and the data on it rebuilt to restore redundancy.
	Instant Hardware Replacement We ensure there is always a standby server, installed, configured and powered up, ready to hand over instantly in the unlikely event of a hardware failure.
	Data Backup Our hosting includes hardware based disk mirroring (RAID) providing protection against hardware failure. We also offer a daily tape backup option; data on your server is transferred to magnetic tapes every day with tapes stored off site.

	Apache Web Server We use the industry standard Apache web server for all our 4DSite Designer hosting to provide the best performance, user experience and security.
	MySQL Database Server Version 4 of the enterprise class MySQL database server is installed as standard.
	Mail Server Our mail server supports unlimited mailboxes, auto-responders and forwarders. POP3, IMAP, SMTP and web based access to your mail.
	Clam Anti-Virus All messages are scanned for viruses as they are received. New virus definitions are checked for and updated automatically ensuring that no virus bearing email can make it into your mailboxes.
	Webalizer Graphical Stats Graphical web site access statistics for all your sites accessible from your easy to use control panel.
	FTP server FTP access for publishing 4DSite Designer websites and direct access using your FTP Client software of choice.

	Control Panel Our web based control panel software is installed, allowing you to control all aspects of your hosting from a graphical interface.
	Security Patches & Hot Fixes We monitor news and developments relating to the software installed and receive notification from vendors as security vulnerabilities are discovered. We ensure any needed patches are applied and take mitigating action where necessary to maintain the integrity of your hosting.
	Monitoring & Tuning Automated systems monitor the availability of your hosting, alerting us immediately should a problem develop.
	Software Upgrades & New Features Much of the software installed is actively developed with new functionality being added regularly. We will periodically upgrade the software, allowing you to take advantage of the latest technology
