Our introduction to the managed server range is the Mini Pro. It is suited to those on a budget and whose sites, whilst mission critical, do not require the guaranteed fail-over and uptime of a RAID system. The server does, however, include all the superlative management and backup facilities described previously. Its memory and processing capabilities allow moderate traffic sites to run very well.

You may transfer up to 120 Gigabytes of included data transfer per month through the Mini Pro. This is significantly more than any other entry-level managed server from any commercial source, and will allow your site to grow comfortably.

Small businesses and new ventures will benefit enormously from the well supported value for money that the Mini Pro represents. The Mini Pro is housed in a compact but well-ventilated 1U case.

The Professional server introduces RAID into the managed server range. RAID stands for a Redundant Array of Independent Disks. In simple terms, this means that we include two live hard drives into your server in addition to its separate nightly-backup drive. Every time a file is written to one of the two live disks, it is automatically replicated on the other. Should one of these live drives fail physically, the server will continue working and no data will be lost. It will continue to operate from the unaffected drive. We will be alerted about the situation automatically and will replace the failed drive at a time convenient to you. As a bonus, spreading the load over two drives means data can be read twice as quickly. We add additional memory and processor speed to The Professional server to match the increased resilience.

The Professional server is ideal for medium traffic mission-critical sites and is well suited to e-commerce ventures. It is also possible to host a number of sites on the one server; there is a roomy 200 Gigabytes of included data transfer a month. The server is housed in a 2U case. This gives extra room for ventilation and for drives mounted in caddies. This ensures long-term reliability, with simple drive exchange should it be necessary. Further, the Professional server and its bigger siblings contain two live power supply units. Should one of them fail, the second unit will take over without a glitch, allowing a replacement at a time convenient to you.

The Professional server gives you the peace of mind: the most common areas of hardware failure have been preempted efficiently and reliably. It is ideal for any project that requires good value mission criticality.

Increased processing and memory power

The Enterprise server introduces increased processing power and memory to the range. The Enterprise system includes the ability to expand the system to massive memory and hard disk requirements allowing for high intensity mailing systems, high capacity media serving. It is ideal for java applications and high-processing / memory resource intensive applications. The hardware configuration allows you to get fast and reliable data delivery on busy sites.

The technology ensures that intensive database transactions do not swamp the server's throughput. If required this server may be used with hardware SCSI RAID devices and have additional memory specifically added to the RAID card. This allows hyper-efficient multi-level caching, further increasing the server's performance capabilities. With its 400 Gigabytes of included data transfer per month, popular sites are well catered to. The Enterprise server scales well for multimedia delivery, for streaming and for projects making intensive use of database facilities.

The server is housed in a 2U case. This gives extra room for ventilation and for drives mounted in caddies. This ensures long-term reliability, with simple drive exchange should it be necessary. As with the Professional server, the Enterprise contains two live power supply units. Should one of them fail, the second unit will take over without a glitch, allowing a replacement at a time convenient to you.

Demanding and popular websites making use of the latest technologies will find plenty of headroom with the Enterprise Max. The Max takes The Enterprise's SCSI RAID technologies and beefs things up with extra memory and disk capacity. The crucial enhancement, however, is the inclusion of an additional CPU (processor). Having two processors on board means that you have double the horsepower at your disposal. Highly multithreaded technologies like Java make very efficient use of the multiple processing, allowing for extremely powerful and scalable web-presences.

The Enterprise Max package includes 500 Gigabytes of included data transfer per month. These servers have been used successfully in television tie-ins. They have coped admirably with the load of millions of hits an hour, even with high-intensity Java-mediated database content. The server is housed in a rugged 4U case for very efficient cooling of even the busiest machines. As with its smaller siblings, the Enterprise Max contains two live power supply units. Should one of them fail, the second unit will take over without a glitch, allowing a replacement at a time convenient to you.

Finally, for extremely ambitious projects, Positive Internet will offer you a combination of its server range connected as a subnetwork. We will consult with you at every step of your network's construction and maintenance so that it fits your venture like a glove. This allows you to create infinitely scalable load-balanced solutions for the the most demanding projects imaginable. We will design the triangulated network, purchase your own bandwidth and set up switches, routers and firewalls dedicated to your project.
