Benefits of green credentials

Whatever the industry, these days green credentials are important. All consumers now expect to have a green option available to them and so all businesses need to be thinking, implementing and marketing their own green initiatives. This white paper discusses the ways in which the energy intensive hosting industry can become greener and how to best market these environmentally friendly credentials.
Server Security

Seventy percent of websites are at serious and immediate risk of being hacked and e-crime now equates to 7% of all crime against businesses. As the internet now accounts for such a large and growing portion of all commerce, industries cannot afford to leave their servers and networks open to attack.
Data centre management

Data centres need to be areas of high security. Every single server stored within a data centre has the potential to contain vast amounts of information. Depending on the organisation that owns the server, and its purpose, each piece of hardware could contain anything from personal details to business client lists, records of work, programming codes, patient details and financial informational. This information, if leaked, would breach the Data Protection Act a million times over and compromise the security and privacy of potentially millions of people.
Calculating the cost of downtime

Downtime is the bane of internet businesses the world over, causing havoc and wreaking disruption as it impinges upon customers and staff alike. When a business' hardware goes down, it inevitably causes disruption. One study estimates that by 2008 the annual cost of website downtime will be £2.7billion for UK firms. But downtime does not just affect businesses on a monetary basis. The use to which a business puts its servers affects the degree of disturbance downtime causes. For website-reliant ecommerce enterprises, sales completely cease at the point of downtime. In companies where online databases are essential for work to be undertaken, productivity is hindered. In conclusion, without reliable failover or planning, downtime invariably causes a business' profits to be reduced.
Ensuring the internet doesnt grind to a halt

Capacity demands on our broadband super highways are constantly being pushed to the limit by new online applications and innovations. Frequently we hear that the internet will falter under an unmatchable burden but, so far at least, it has managed.
This white paper reveals the vicious circle the internet must content with, what are the latest innovations that are eating up capacity and what the solutions are going forward.
