Technical Specifications: Email and Hosting

High Velocity Web Hosting iDrive servers reside with EV1 Servers (EV1). We have a team of server administrators dedicated to working in conjunction with EV1 to ensure the safety, speed, and power of your hosting package. 24x7 Monitoring We use a web-based monitoring solution to monitor the performance of your website. We monitor everything from the number of current connections to your Web Server, the amount of time it takes to process a DNS name, to IP address lookup to the per-second number of transactions started for your SQL Server 2000 database. We also provide availability and performance monitoring across your entire network - without all the headaches associated with deploying and integrating your own management services. To ensure the most accurate reporting possible, all monitoring is done locally from inside your firewall - while all the number crunching is done remotely to prevent any additional load on your system. Browser Based Email Web-based e-mail system with complete control. Unlimited number of domains and unlimited users/CPU's. Restricted Data Floor Access The data centers are physically isolated from everyone but level three technicians within the EV1 environment. Public access is strictly forbidden. Access to the data center floors is restricted to those holding Rackspace military-grade pass cards. Furthermore, access to the data centers themselves is restricted by Biometric hand scanners. Multiple Power Source Backups Power systems in EV1 data centers are designed to run uninterrupted even in the unlikely event of a total power outage. All servers are fed with conditioned UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) power that will run if utility power fails. The UPS power subsystem is N+1 redundant with instantaneous fail over in case the primary UPS fails. In the event of an extended power outage, an on-site diesel generator can run indefinitely. The generator is regularly tested to ensure that it will continue to function in the event of an emergency. Guaranteed 99.8% Uptime EV1 guarantees that the network will be available 99.8% of the time in a given month, excluding scheduled maintenance. Hosting/network Infrastructure We offer fully managed, complex configurations including load balancers, firewall's, network attached storage, and a suite of managed services.
