We use industrial strength web server equipment for high performance and reliability including Intel Pentium and Sun Sparc based systems. All servers are top notch (Pentium III, and Pentium 4, with no less than 512MB RAM) and our network has multiple multi GIG connections. This is what is requires to deliver the speed necessary to run your domains without lag.

Hot Swap Drives - The drives and drive bays of all servers are constructed from high-grade aluminum, and rest in shock mounted drive cages, which adds to the durability of the hardware. Our drives proudly feature the lowest failure rate in the industry. 

Redundant Hot Swap Power Supplies - Each server employs dual-redundant hot swap power supplies. If a power supply were to fail, the server would continue running with power from the alternate supply. Meanwhile, alarms would alert a technician, who would quickly restore redundancy. In the meantime, servers and client sites would experience no downtime. 

Capacity - We NEVER overload over servers. We maintain plenty of excess capacity, even during peak periods. This allows us to accommodate for large spikes in traffic, which is often associated with most popular websites. We are always adding network capacity, in an effort to ensure that content is delivered to your audience as efficiently as possible.

Standby Servers - We keep spare servers on-line of all CPU configurations. If a server were to experience a hardware failure, we would turn a key, grab the handle on the drive, pull it out, and insert it into an identical standby CPU. We would then reboot the second machine and the server would be up and running again in a matter of minutes. 

Host-Domain.net utilizes multiple links to the Internet, which currently consists of multiple Gigabit Ethernet fiber backbones into a range of Tier 1 and 2 networks.

Network connections to multiple backbone providers, and peering with many carriers on a regional and international basis, allows us to easily reach remote networks even in the case where a Network Access Point ( NAP) may be unhealthy, or when a specific backbone connection is down. It also allows us to make intelligent routing decisions, identifying which path is the most efficient for each data packet and then routes the packet to its destination on the fastest path. This increases the speed at which web pages sent from our NOC arrive at their destination. 

By placing our core nodes at places like Equinix and Telehouse, we are guaranteed a level of competent service. All of our core nodes employ SONET networks, which essentially provides a dual-redundant, counter-rotating ring technology, and in the event of a fiber cut, the SONET will automatically heal itself. We also divide our circuits among several telecommunications providers, such as Verizon, MFS/Worldcom, and Adelphia.

Our unmatched uptime guarantee ensures that your content always arrives to your audience, when they want it.

Host-Domain's servers are located at the reliable and powerful NAC datacenter located in New Jersey. NAC is one of the most reliable and fastest datacenters in the world. With over 20 bandwidth providers, they leave no room for error. A few of these world class tier 1 bandwidth providers include: Internap, Qwest, UUNet, Sprint, and Global Crossing. With dual OC3 connections and multiple 100 megabit fiber lines, our servers are connected to the internet with true redundancy.

The datacenter houses state of the art facilities like constant climate control, top-of-the-line fire protection, closed circuit monitoring of all areas and entrances, secure card key access, 24 hour guard manned security and redundant a/c systems. The NAC staff monitors our servers around the clock to ensure maximum uptime. If there's ever a hardware failure on any of our servers, they guarantee replacement within 2 hours.

The Datacenter uses top quality network hardware, using such technologies as ATM and BGP dynamic routing to ensure that all systems run efficiently and smoothly, with significant investments in equipment from major vendors such as Cisco and Lucent. We agree that using industry leading equipment that has a proven track record is the best choice for hosting reliability, and is well worth the extra expense.

We recognizes that down time is not an option for your business... a substantial investment in hardware and facilities ensures you are up and running on the web 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Nothing is left to chance.

Real-Time Monitoring: Technician are working around the clock to ensure that the network is operating at optimum state. We uses SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) to monitor all aspects of our network. Network utilization statistics are collected and graphed by industry-standard MRTG (Multi-Router Traffic Grapher), then analyzed by our support staff. Monitoring is conducted around-the-clock, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. This unparallel combination provides you more control in managing the communication needs of your enterprises.

Uninterruptible Power System: We have numerous uninterrupted power supplies to ensure that in case of a power failure, our servers will not have any downtime. If the datacenter ever loses power for more than 1 hour, the back up generators will kick in.
