| About
Host Yorkshire
Host
Yorkshire is based in Barnsley, United Kingdom and have been providing
internet solutions for business and home users since 1989.
In 2003 we started offering our low cost shared hosting service.
The support and reliability we offer has proven to be the key factor
in our ability to be a competitive force in the ever growing hosting
market.
In addition to hosting we provide bespoke internet solutions that
are tailored to your needs, including but not limited to web site
and intranet design, consultation and education. We also have a
special services team that work world wide in any location of your
choice.
Our
Network
Downtime is not an option for your web site. That's why we invest
heavily in hardware and facilities that ensure that our clients
are up and running on the web 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
We
host in multiple state-of-the-art Network Operation Centers (NOC's)
located world wide. There are all staffed 24/7/365 and include backup
diesel generators and are equipped with VESDA fire suppression systems,
designed to immediately extinguish fire and protect equipment and
personnel.
All
NOC's have have multiple redundancy. Host Yorkshires providers also
have peering connections with other major Tier 1 providers that
allow traffic to be switched to alternate backbones should the need
arise.
Often providers operate their networks at three to four times responsible
capacity, and as a result the corresponding transfer times reach
over 300ms for each hop along the net.
Our network daily average is 6.5% of its capacity, with mid-day
peak spikes reaching only 15.5% capacity. Our transfer times range
from 15 to 80ms routinely. |
