Cloud hosting is an alternative to dedicated server hosting using highly available virtualisation technologies.
The hardware on which your web hosting runs is virtualised using OnAPP.
This brings a number of huge benefits, including the ability to offer unlimited web space and unlimited bandwidth allowances with a massive 99.9% uptime.
OnApp Cloud is an industry-leading Cloud Platform which enables service providers (like us!) to set up and manage public and private clouds using enterprise level hardware.
We use Dell enterprise-grade hardware and SSD-powered SAN technology to provide optimal uptime and performance. For more information on OnApp, visit their website at onapp.com.
Unlike a lot of hosting providers; we are not simply a reseller. At Fast Host Bay, we operate our own dedicated hardware from data centres right here in the UK. Using our own hardware and networks allows us to build scalable and bespoke hosting platforms, utilising industry-leading software.
All services we provide are built on cloud technology, allowing us to upscale on-demand to meet customer expectations without downtime. On top of all this, we provide fantastic customer service too!
Cloud hosting uses approximately one eighth of the power of a modern, similarly specified, physical hosting solution. We work with partners who care about the environment, and are always looking for greener ways to conduct our business.
We use only SSD drives in our cloud storage solutions, which reduce power and cooling needs and we are always looking to ensure we provide a green and environmentally friendly service.
Our bespoke platform has been designed and built by us, using premium hardware to provide ultra-reliability and performance.
Our primary based in Manchester Technopark. It has four on-site generators with 5 days' supply of fuel, which provides us with full capability to sustain long power outages.
A full VESDA system that provides early detection of smoke is in place, so that any potential fire is detected before it can develop. In the extremely unlikely event that a fire does develop, an FM200 fire suppression system is in place.
Manchester Technopark has security on site 24/7 with offsite backup to deal with any major event. CCTV cameras, motion detection and a key fob access system ensure multiple layers of security and peace of mind.
The facility houses on-site 24/7 technical support for fast on-site response.
With a traditional dedicated server, if your hardware fails then you get downtime. Our OnAPP Cloud is not reliant on any single piece of hardware, allowing you to benefit from a massive 99.9% uptime.
