Dedicated Server Load Balancing

Dedicated server load balancing delivers high availability hosting that's perfect for mission critical organisations. In a successful internet business downtime simply cannot be tolerated, therefore load balancing ensures no one server is ever overwhelmed.

Essentially, load balancing spreads your website traffic across your server platform, so that even in extreme traffic intensive situations your site still performs fantastically. This means that if you are carrying out maintenance or one of your servers should fail, your load balancer automatically directs all traffic to the other servers in your solution ensuring your website remains fully available even in a disaster.

Why choose Load Balancing

Intelligent problem detection and transference - Automatic failover and notification of a technician who will address the issue within 15 minutes of your phone call.
Simple maintenance - Servers can be removed and introduced without affecting your website's availability.
No single point of failure - Automatic failover and servers being located in different racks powered by a different supply further reduces the risk of downtime.
Specify load distribution - You choose how much traffic is processed by each server in the load balancing solution.

Load Balancing is available in both Layer 4 and Layer 7 configuration.

Layer 7 Load Balancing:

Specific tasks can be assigned to individual servers

Different types of content have different requirements in terms of CPU usage and I/O throughput. Allocating these tasks to specific servers can vastly improve your system's efficiency and performance.

Specific customers can be directed to individual servers

Layer 7 Load Balancing allows certain visitors to be directed to higher-powered servers. Direct premium customers, or e-buyers, to more powerful hardware so they receive the best customer experience and come back again and again.

Dual location load balancing ensures extra reliability

Load Balanced servers split across two separate locations makes your server solution even more robust. In the unlikely event of natural disaster, fire or flood your activities automatically fail over and continue from the undisrupted location.
