A dedicated server gives you total control over your hosting environment which a virtual private server or a shared hosting environment cannot deliver. You are free to install custom software, make custom configuration changes and are free to manage all aspects of the system. You may of course prefer our support to make any necessary changes. While we ensure that shared machines are actively monitored to ensure that contention between users is kept to a minimum, a dedicated server gives you exclusive access to system resources. This will invariably deliver better site performance. You gain root level access to the machine which will enable you to carry out installs or system administration specific to your requirements. The difference between the shared and dedicated server bandwidth allowances highlights one of the benefits of having your own server: being able to cope with large volumes of traffic. All machines come with a J2EE environment pre-installed and configured including All hosting plans come with full support, as opposed to 'bare metal' support where health of a system is determined by it being pingable we can on demand install monitoring software (SNMP) and activally monitor your server. Prices include system monitoring, backups, general system administration and Apache and Tomcat support. We choose Dell™ hardware rather than cheaper self assembled machines for the reliability it provides, aware that the components used in their manufacture have been chosen to be Linux compliant. Our servers are housed in state of the art data centres in London docklands, the technical details can be found here.
