Creating your Virtual Machines Cluster requires a pre-planned strategy of what your
organisation is trying to achieve.
It could be a three node cluster or five or six node
cluster or an eight node cluster.
Specification scaling has to be considered in terms of hardware requisites for
number of cores, amount of Ram and then the
disk capacity....
There are multiple storage options for your VM cluster. You could have them running of a central storage server or each running their own databases and then replicating or even replicating load balancing between the databases
Your VMs could run identical specifications on your VMs or alternately run different specifications and then manage the load balancing alogrithms to weight traffic based on their specifications
Once you sign up for a VM cluster part of the agreement is that we provide backups for your VMs. Your backups are for the last 5 days, which provides adequate restoration options in the evnt of any issues
You can have between 2 to 8 VMs in your cluster and as part of the cluster management no two VMs will be on the same server to ensure redundancy and High availability
Your VMs will be connecting at GB speed as they will all be on the same network and latency will next to low. You can also upgrade to our 10Gbe connectivity
Traffic between the VMs in your cluster are without limit, totally without limit
there is a Management Control Panel to provide controls for firewall rules, backups and snapshots and additional hardward controls including stopping and starting your VMs. You will also have access to the usage statistics of your VMs
We provide automatic DDoS protection for all hardware on our network and will also work with you is you need additional controls implemented
Support is generally provided between the hours of 9am - 7pm Monday to Saturday. We do provide 24/7 support for emergency situations
Architecture planning for your Cluster Solution should be consider many factors,
the ability to scale and obviously security are important and cross network connectivity
must be considered.
Consider the ability to run multiple Clusters, the increased High Availability that
can be achived so that Cluster nodes and applications can survive failure at both the
application and server level.
