Clustered Website Hosting

Aspnethosting.co.uk provide a fantastic well managed cluster.В  Unlike many hosting companies we do not place all our services on to one single server.В  This way performance is alot better for your website.В  We also use a range of different types of hardware for each service.В  For example Email & Databases run from SAS hard disks as they perform allot quicker, which is needed for Email & Databases.В  Where websites are on SATA hard drives which are still good performance, but can hold allot more data.

Below is an example of our clustered setup.

Although only 1 Email server/Ftp/DB server is shown above, we do have several of these machines and many more web servers.

By offering more than 1 Physical DNS Server, this allows us to offer you better speed and performance of your website.В  If one DNS Server is busy or is down, their is always a secondary DNS Server waiting to take on the traffic.

The DNS Server has the information stored of what server to send the visitor to for the requested web page.
