Service Level Agreement
Network Guarantee
100% Network Guarantee
Our network is designed from the inside out, specifically engineered to support a hosting infrastructure. As such, we can guarantee 100% availability of network resources at all times. We define availability of network resources as the routers, switches and associated cabling being online and moving your data efficiently.
Our network is defined as the managed infrastructure between the outbound port of the cabinet switch to the WAN port of our core router. This does not include the server we are hosting for you nor any operating system or applications installed on it.
Unlike most hosting companies, we are members of RIPE and run our own Autonomous Network to ensure that performance is always optimised for our customers’ servers. We run our network on state of the art Cisco equipment for total peace of mind.
All of our data centres have multiple connections to multiple redundant internet networks to ensure there is no single point of failure. Unlike most hosting companies, not only do we have multiple Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems, all of our data centres also have dedicated diesel generators to ensure complete power availability.
We run multiple, redundant monitoring systems to ensure that we are always aware of any performance glitches that may occur and are able to correct them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our network is intelligent and self-healing so any failure is immediately and seamlessly routed around.
When we need to perform scheduled maintenance, we will give you as much notice as is possible and, apart from during maintenance slots, we guarantee that our network infrastructure will be available 100% of the time.
Free Reboots
Should it be required, we will reboot your server for you any time of the day or night.
24/7/365 telephone support
All our technical support staff are based at our UK data centres and, as a colocation customer, you have unrestricted access to them and their knowledge and experience. You can call them anytime and they’ll do whatever they can to ensure you are impressed by our service. You can contact us by telephone or email; its up to you. We are Microsoft partners and have great experience with many flavours of linux, so we’ll know how to assist in most cases.
