New Zealand Virtual Private Server Features
High Availability
- Your Windows Virtual Private Server (VPS) is provisioned onto a high availability (HA) cluster of server hardware designed for maximum performance and uptime.
- In the event of server failure or service degradation, your Windows Virtual Private Server (VPS) can be seamlessly moved to other hardware. This is normally completed without any noticeable downtime or service interruption.
- Synchronous mirroring is used to ensure zero data is lost even in case of a complete crash or hardware failure.
- SiteHost cloud technology used by your Windows Virtual Private Server (VPS) provides higher fault tolerance than cloud systems using SAN technologies where there is a single point of failure by design.
New Zealand based Cloud Hosting
- Our Windows Virtual Private Servers (VPS) or Cloud Servers as some providers call them are physically hosted in Auckland, New Zealand providing the lowest latencies possible to your customers down under.
Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2008 R2 + SQL Server Ready
- Deploy Windows Server 2012 standard or Windows Server 2008 R2 standard edition. Licenses for Windows Server Enterprise, Web and Datacentre editions are available.
