The Benefits of Managed Server Hosting

The Benefits MSH Blog1

Managed Hosted Servers are a type of Cloud-Based Infrastructure. Like physical servers, Hosted Servers don’t have inherent end-user functionality in the typical sense. They are “blank canvases” composed of CPUs, RAM, long-term data storage, and bandwidth. A business can use Managed Server Hosting to deliver any number of IT Solutions, including Email, Websites, Applications, and Virtual Desktops. The virtualization of Hosted Servers also lets them host several IT Solutions at one time. A business could fit its deployments of an e-commerce platform and Microsoft Exchange onto a single virtualized server, for example, when without virtualization each Solution would require a dedicated server of its own.

Managed Server Hosting

Managed Server Hosting is the optimal choice for organizations that want to be able to customize, control, and monitor every aspect of their Hosted Servers. Managed Hosting Services work best for companies with highly-unique IT requirements and preferences; businesses that need to satisfy specific data security regulations; or any organization that desires a Hosted Infrastructure with the greatest flexibility, manageability, and freedom.

Not all Hosted Servers are Managed Hosted Servers, of course. Normal Hosted Servers only receive basic support. A Hosting Provider will perform only the tasks needed to ensure that a Hosted Server is functioning, online, and available. With Managed Server Hosting, however, it provides services that enhance the performance, security, and compliance of the Solution without infringing on the privacy or control of the Server’s owner.

-Atomic Speed Technology

-Orbital Security (including firewall, IDS/IPS, antivirus, anti-spyware, anti-spam, and content filter)
