During the lock down we decided to bring our hosting infrastructure setup into 2020 and here is the result:
A Private Cloud, 16 nodes, 224 vCPU, 1TB+ RAM…
Our cloud setup is designed with 3 main goals:
- Quick Failover to reserve servers located in remote data center of our hosting nodes.
- Quick restore from snapshot of the VMs on the nodes that is not covered by the failover option.
- Quick and easy upgrade to next generation of hardware (with downtime equal to a reboot time (about 5 min) when that become available at our price point.
Failover option covers about 80% of our cPanel shared and hybrid hosting servers and 100% of our DirectAdmin shared and hybrid hosting servers in Western Europe and North America.
We are building a separate Private Cloud for our Eastern EU – Bulgaria location and we hope to bring that service online in October.
Our reseller hosting VMs are currently covered by quick snapshot restoration option (H + 2-3 hours vs 10+ hours restoration from OS level backups), but they also on the list to be upgraded to cloud setup.
I hope you enjoy our work in making our service better – without any price increase for the end customers !
