Dedicated Server

Selecting a dedicated server at Hurricane Electric is one of the easiest decisions you can make when it comes to your business. This is an ideal step up from standard web hosting if you don't want other users on your server for safety and performance reasons. With a dedicated server, you know exactly what is on your server and the level of traffic that your server is experiencing.

With a simple phone call or email, you can choose the server of your choice, decide on software, and leave the rest to us. We will have your server up and running in no time at all. Your site can go live as soon as we have everything set up and you give us the go ahead.

After your server has been configured, connected to our network, tested by one of our technicians and set up in our industrial Colocation Facility, all you have to do is transfer your website over and sit back and relax. Hurricane Electric will take it from there. It is as simple as that and you will be amazed at how fast everything comes together.

Our servers run the minimum network services necessary to reduce the risk of remote penetration, and have proprietary security modifications to the operating system that make it extremely difficult for a remote or local user to elevate his/her privileges.

Performance

We will carefully monitor your server daily and take care of any unlikely problems that you may experience. Hurricane Electric will perform all of the routine maintenance and run scheduled checks to make sure that everything is running properly.

We keep spare hard drives, power supplies, and boards on hand in the unlikely event that something fails. We also keep additional RAM at our facilities in case you want to upgrade your server immediately.

Reliability

Hurricane Electric has multiple fiber optic gigabit connections and directly peers with major networks. With multiple connections, battery backup and emergency generator power, a climate controlled environment, and 24 hour, 365 day monitoring, we guarantee that your dedicated server will run optimally.

Scalability

Because you are connected directly to Hurricane Electric's network, you will never see a telco charge. All you pay for is the bandwidth. When the time comes to upgrade your server, just call us and we will be more than happy to take care of everything.

As you grow, so can your internet connection, all without the hassle of acquiring new equipment or having physical lines run to your facility. Let us keep everything running smoothly so that you don't have to worry about a thing.
