Dedicated Server Hosting
FrontPoint offers customer supported and fully managed, outsourced dedicated server hosting programs. Companies maintain administrative control of their web site while still taking
advantage of the benefits of outsourced hosting. Dedicated servers are configured for maximum performance and reliability and can be fully managed by the customers' in-house technical personnel.
We also offer a
comprehensive managed dedicated server program, designed to fully manage mission-critical web sites and applications and the infrastructure behind the web servers. Complete web-site management allows businesses to fully leverage
the experience and expertise of our dedicated Internet staff. Managed dedicated server solutions include scalable server hardware and software, networking, monitoring, security, reporting, administration and back-up, all in one
package from one source. Server Platform FrontPoint only supports one server
platform: Microsoft NT and Microsoft Information Server. That way we keep it simple and manageable. This approach also ensures that our staff is focused on building the experience and expertise our customers need to build
successful web-based business solutions. Our dedicated servers are configured for maximum performance and reliability and include:

Dedicated Internet Connectivity Bandwidth above the monthly limit is charged separately. This means you are free to use as
much or as little bandwidth as you need without any prior notification. You only pay for the bandwidth that you use. System Management Services
At the core of our dedicated server hosting offerings are our System Management Services, including administration, back-up, security, reporting and monitoring, all in one package,
managed by FrontPoint Systems. Our System Management Services allow companies that do not have the highly skilled technical personnel, time or resources deploy and manage
complicated web applications, e-business solutions and infrastructure behind their web servers. Managed dedicated servers may include the following software. Software
Application Servers
Our managed dedicated server platforms can be configured with application server software to ensure a stable and affordable environment for database-centric web sites with optimal
security and without compromising performance or scalability.
Microsoft Site Server
Microsoft Site Server, an application server optimized for Microsoft NT Server and Internet Information Server, enables large and medium size businesses to build
flexible and cost-effective e-commerce sites. Companies gain time-to-market and reduce development cost through Site Server's integrated feature set.

E-mail Server
All managed dedicated hosting servers can be configured with IMail, a popular full-featured Internet mail server for Windows NT. IMail delivers the level of reliability,
scalability and speed that our customers demand for Windows-based e-mail hosting services. Features include: single IP, multi-homing capabilities, blind aliasing, anti-spamming controls, remote administration and
multiple domain support. |
Databases
Databases have become a standard part of most web sites and applications. All managed servers can be configured with MS Access or SQL databases.
E-Commerce
Our Internet infrastructure allows businesses to connect their commerce web sites to various
payment processing centers and private corporate information systems. In this way customers are assured that their payment information and transaction processing will be securely routed.
Networking
To maximize your site's performance and availability our network services have been
engineered to work seamlessly with your server to give you high reliability, maximum security, and efficient content distribution. For customers with multiple servers we offer load balancing and private internal networks.Load-Balancing
Load-balancing is the process of using multiple servers in parallel to allow Internet traffic to be distributed among them. By intelligently directing traffic to the most available server, user
traffic is balanced across multiple servers, or weighted to minimize the load on a particular server. This allows multiple small servers to be used in place of one large server, ensuring
high performance and throughput as well as redundancy.
Private Network
A private network solution allows customers with multiple servers to have their own private internal network among those servers, enabling those servers to exchange data exclusively
between each other, without traversing the public Internet. This not only increases data security, but can also cut bandwidth costs. |
