In this industry, it’s very important to own your own equipment. Servers, storage systems, network hardware, all of it. It’s the only way you can honestly guarantee any level of reliability. Otherwise you are at the mercy of 3rd party resellers.
Our network is completely fault-tolerant thanks to Cisco VSS (virtual switching system) technology throughout the core and distribution layers. This helps with redundancy and also network throughput by pooling together multiple physical chassis to work as a single virtual domain.
Our SANs use a 100% fault-tolerant configuration. We use dual supervisors (controllers), dual fibre loops, dual SAS loops, dual front end loops...you get the idea. Basically, if it has to do with storage, every component has to be redundant and to be able to operate independently.
MaticsCloud provides Cloud Hosting services using some of the best enterprise hardware available on the market today. Further enhancing the ‘value for money’ proposition, is the fact that MaticsCloud runs hypervisors with the lowest contention rate in the industry. It’s very common at MaticsCloud, to see an HP Proliant BL460c G8 running with 2 x E5 Xeons, with just 9-10 VM’s, even though the ‘ceiling’ is much higher.
