Online Processing/load Balancing Services
Nov 14, 2005I work for an academic department which utilizes one web server, and has few issues with processing time and/or speed during the year. However, there is one point during the year when there is a need for a significant number of processing transactions, which opens all at once at a certain time on a certain day for everyone, that the web server cannot handle and is currently not occurring.
I need to find a service that can handle this. Basically, we would just need to insert info into a database (or whatever input form works) and then later export that data into a text file to be inserted by us at a later time. This is not credit card processing, which is why I'm posting. However, this would need to be secure. We only need the use of the servers and a database.
Tuangou / Group Buying With Regards To Online Services
Apr 10, 2009I recently discovered the magic of Tuangou / group buying after a short stay in China. It made me wonder why this efficient method of purchasing things has yet to be popularised in the Western world. (See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuangou for more information.)
I think that this is quite interesting when you look at the economics of server resources, in particular online data storage. I have been looking for around 100GB of cheap, reliable FTP space for a while now, but it seems that truly cheap storage is only available if you have terabytes of data to store. This has always prevented me from storing my data in 'the cloud'.
However, if the Tuangou principles are applied to this situation a lot of cheap storage could be realised so long as there were enough people to cover the yearly cost.
Which moves me on to the crux of my post...
As a home user or small business owner, would you be willing to wait longer for an online storage service to be provisioned and pay in advance if there were significant cost savings to be had?
(By significant cost savings I mean cheaper than Amazon's S3.)
I'm currently looking to set up a company offering just this, but do not wish to enter the market until I can substantiate my own views and until I can be sure that my target market does not solely consist of me.

Dedicated Server Backup Online

Windows Server Online Backup Provider
May 16, 2009Due to some recent negative experiences, one of my customers had to cancel their account with IBackup.com's Pro services. It had provided exceptional reliability and did Windows backup of the System State, Exchange Server, SQL, and provided file versions going 30 back. But I couldn't get anywhere with technical support for 2 weeks on why it would freeze during the backups. The final straw came when I installed it to a brand new server and had the same issues.
I'm looking for a suggestion on a provider that does at least file-level backups and Exchange backups. I've looked around online, read reviews, but it doesn't look like the providers do Exchange backup. I don't need mailbox-level backup, just brick-level for disaster recovery. File versions going back (in case a user makes a mistake and wants to restore an old copy) would be nice, but not required.

Jun 2, 2008leave LayeredTech completely, including Dynavol.
My new host I've chosen doesn't have backup services, but no big deal. I'd like to know what people out there use (Company and Specific Services) for off site backup of their servers.
I can either do push or pull. I liked how Dynavol worked. I guess if that's the best option I could keep LT strictly for Dynavol, but looking to see what others think.
R1Soft CDP Backup Services Resellers
Aug 20, 2008Does someone know any other company besides fxhbackup and bqinternet that sells backup services based on R1Soft CDP?
My current solution is constantly giving broken pipe lines error. I was told this is because of overloaded backup servers. I did had my own CDP server running on the same DC and it worked like a charm, but currently my provider says it will not support it anymore and its terrible slow on his CDP server, besides it breaks backup.
Can someone point me one a CDP solution that works?
Has someone had experience with Acronis True Echo Server Enterprise?

HDD Prices Online
Oct 13, 2009Today I wanted to configure server for colocation and I went to both HP and DELL, and everything was ok until I started to configure HDDs. Price of regular 1Tb HDD is about $500 on both DELL and HP, while same drive costs $84 on newegg. Whats the catch? I mean processor, RAM, and everything else has normal prices, but HDDs are 6X more expensive than normal price.
Do you know any good site where I can configure server and order it to colocation address. Also it must be very cheap ? Best would be if I could order components from new egg, send them to company which assembles everything and then send it to DC.

Does anyone know of a piece of software/code out there that can provide me with this information in real time?

For An Online Store?
May 7, 2008I am currently shopping for web hosting for an online store (that would provide software - mostly automatically downloadable upon payment).
My estimates for initial operation of my web/online store are:
Storage: (10MB/app x 50 apps) + 50MB overhead = 550 MB
Monthly transfer: 5000 purchases/month x 10MB/app = 10 GB
Number of email accounts: up to 10
By "initial" I mean first year, not first month.
My intent is to develop my own osCommerce based web store for downloadable software that I develop. PHP and MySQL support are must. My estimates are not carved in stone. In the beginning I will certainly use much less "monthly transfer" than I specified and in the long term I hope to be using much more "monthly transfer" (as marketing evolves and the business becomes more established)...
The most important factors to me are (in the following order):
1) Reliability (up-time, security)
2) Tech support
3) Expandability (room to grow)
The company that registered my domain name provides web hosting with much more than I initially need (5GB space, 250GB transfer, 50 email accounts) for under $3 a month.
This is a price that I can afford. However, I am not sure whether it is a good idea to have both the web hosting and domain registration provided by the same company? Any opinions/comments you have about this? Is my doubt in this regard unfounded?
Secondly, is there some independent source (user/customer reviews OK) that compares the reliability of web hosting providers? (I would have given the name of my registrar here but I am unsure whether this would constitute advertising. If mentioning names or asking for references is allowed please let me know and I will post it here so that I can get your opinions about it).
Thirdly, is there any significance for where, geographically, the actual servers are located? Main consideration is access speed for customers...

Is BurstNET Chat Ever Online?
Apr 28, 2009I have been looking to talk to BurstNET reps about a possible purchase (gunna attempt to maybe negotiate a deal - trying to choose between VolumeDrive and BurstNET) but I have yet to find their chat to be online in the past week or so; I have checked during all hours of the day (meaning at different times of the day... not literally every single hour).
Furthermore I tried dropping their sales an email but have not got any sort of response yet (albeit its only been over a day but not even a confirmation or anything).
I will probably try to drop them an email again but was just wondering if anyone has ever had a live chat w/ BurstNET reps before?

Online Advertising Business
Nov 3, 2009i'm starting an online advertising business and I'm looking for some kind of site-builder that facilitates web directory sites. Not just textual links.. but whole listings.. picture, menu, stuff like that, a google map to show location.. a proximity search feature.. anyone know of any site builders that have built-in templates to facilitate this? I suppose it's possible to pick a regular site builder with an ordinary template and start from scratch.. but it seems easier the other way.

Jan 18, 2009I have a problem with my godaddy account, At this time my credit card is expiring within a month. when i try to log my hosting accounts and domain manager. It says to give a call for Godaddy billing support number. I tried it, but very busy. I sent few emails and no replies yet. So i couldn't access my account. I paid all bills. Luckily i don't have any expiring domains within few months.
Is this safe? because i need at least 2 weeks to get new credit card? When i check my domain by a whois tool it says like "Prohibited", something.
"Registrar Status: clientDeleteProhibited
Registrar Status: clientRenewProhibited
Registrar Status: clientTransferProhibited
Registrar Status: clientUpdateProhibited"
why godaddy is not user friendly like Hostgator. When i have problems in Hostgator, their online support is helpful.

I Want To Stream A Wedding Online..
May 25, 2008There are relatives on other continents who won't be able to attend, so we're trying to figure out the best way that they'd be able to watch.
Don't want to stream directly since there might be up to 10 people watching, and don't want to have any lag.
Any suggestions on the best route to go? Maybe there is a service and I'm just not looking in the right spot.
I think I want a quality server to host a cam stream for a few hours in early June. Or should I be looking for something else?
Online Calendar Offerings
Jul 17, 2008with the failure of apple's mobileme (not compatible with IE6 + its wicked slow) I'm looking if there's any online calendar programs that I could install on my host.
The wife and I need a centralized location to update our schedules and appointments. MobileMe had promise but since it does not work with IE6, I'm SOL. Google also has an online calendar but for various reasons, I'd like to avoid google.
Since I have a web host, I was wondering if there's any open source (or commercial) applications that I could would allow maintain our schedules/appointments through the web.

2- All about Web Servers (Buying - Renting - different operating systems and platforms)
3- Mail Servers and other services.

5- Any other things I need to consider.
