HOSTALB's multiple server cluster with failover is
designed for two purposes— maximize website performance and eliminating
prolonged downtime. Our enterprise level hosting is the same solution used
to host high traffic mission critical websites.
Typical
Standard Web Hosting The majority of web hosting providers
offer a setup with no redundancy. If the server your website is hosted on
fails the end result will be prolonged downtime (hours and even days)
until fixed. In addition, all major server software (web server, email
server, database server) are located on the same server creating a
bottleneck that can lead to slow performance.
The diagram above illustrates an example of a typical
web hosting setup. One server carries all the load and if it fails your
website will be offline to visitors until the problem is resolved.
HOSTALB's Clustered Failover
Hosting HOSTALB offers a
redundant setup that distributes the load across multiple servers to
improve overall performance. Additionally, all data (web, email, database)
are mirrored in real-time and in the event of a server failure our
failover application will route all website traffic to the available
server keeping your website online until the problem is resolved.
