Data Centre
All Web Appliances are housed in a Data Centre facility worth over
£10 Million pounds and provides the most secure environment for
your Website. Features such as Advanced Fire Suppression Systems,
Denco Environmental Climate Control, APC UPS equipment and advanced
monitoring ensure that your server is online 24 hours a day, 365
days a year.
Backbone
All appliance servers are connected to the Internet via multiple
connections to the Internet from high quality backbone providers.
We currently have 120mb of bandwidth and an additional 155mb available
"on tap" to cope with future demand.
IP Management
If required we can provide advanced IP management solutions:
Common Examples:- IP load balancing at router level (for example,
if you have two servers we can automatically split requests between
them), fail-over support (if your primary server fails we can route
requests to a backup server) etc. If you require more information
please contact sales@fast-name.co.uk
Port filtering and security: We can assist you with your server's
security strategy. For example, we can automatically block certain
ports on your server at the router level or we can block certain
IP addresses from accessing your server. If you require more information
please contact sales@fast-name.co.uk

to our data centre exists. Unlike many of our competitors, there
has been an additional investment of buying bandwidth direct from
BT as they are able to provide us with un-paralleled service and
connection guarantees. Should our Internet connectivity fail for
more than 1% of the time in any calendar month, we will refund the
one days service for every hour that Internet connectivity has been
unavailable over and above 1% of time for that month up to a maximum
