Who?

For those customers who are seeking the benefits of having their own dedicated "private" server space with the performance and security that brings, without the somewhat higher cost of a dedicated physical server, virtual computing is for you.

Your solution can range from a single dedicated VPS (Virtual Private Server) to a cluster or "farm" of virtual private servers for Enterprise class ecommerce environments.

To determine which solution best fits the needs of your business, we suggest speaking with one of our hosting specialists to discuss your unique situation.

What?

Blue Hue Virtual Hosting solutions provide an environment where multiple applications and operating systems run independently on a single server. Additionally, administrators can quickly move workloads from one virtual workspace to another via rapid provisioning. This flexibility in the allocation of computing capacity allows the consolidation of applications and servers - easing IT management requirements and expenses, so that savings can be passed along to you.

We offer both dedicated and enterprise virtual server packages. The dedicated package provides you with a single server instance of your application and database requirements, whereas, the enterprise package offers load balanced, redundant instances of your applications and databases.
Our virtual server infrastructure includes:

  1. Multiple HP DL585 Quad Dual-core CPU systems (Virtual hosts)
  2. Hosts redundantly connected to Enterprise EMC SAN
  3. Raid 5 and Raid 0+1 disk configuration
  4. Redundant GIG-E NICs
  5. VMWare High- Availability Technology

Why?

Our virtual server solution brings you rapid provisioning so that initial setup times and on demand computing capacity increases can be done quickly and efficiently. By having multiple private servers installed on a single physical server, the cost savings can be passed along to you. If the nature and criticality of your application requires, automatic recovery can be configured and counted on to recover data from a second host machine (multiple servers and SAN required). Snapshots provide increased file and data protection during operating system and application upgrades. Our virtualization team manages the physical hardware and the virtual machines to bring you ease of use and peace of mind.

Who?

Our Blue Hue Shared Hosting solution is attractive to individuals and small to mid-sized businesses seeking to establish a Web presence via an economical, flexible solution.  Hosting via a shared server offers you an inexpensive entry point by which you can take advantage of our elite network infrastructure, enterprise level hardware (including HP and Dell), experienced technical staff, and our high performing and secure servers.

What?

As its name implies, Shared Hosting means that multiple customers have their Web sites residing on the same physical server, essentially sharing the same server.  This reduces your cost by allowing you to share best-of-breed hardware, software and Web management costs with other customers sharing the same server which is connected to our high-speed, redundant Internet circuits.

Why?

You may be wondering how Blue Hue Hosting is able to offer you these services at such an affordable price.  You can be rest assured that we never sacrifice quality or technological advancements simply to offer our services at an affordable rate.  Our Shared Hosting solution drastically reduces the costs associated with start-up because the expenses are divided among numerous customers sharing the same server. 

Although shared hosting is a financially sound option, traffic coming from other customers' sites has the potential to impact the performance and availability of your Web site.  You may also have some unique software packages or services that do not "play well" in a shared services environment and may require a dedicated server.  To determine which Blue Hue Hosting solution best fits your business needs, simply contact one of our hosting specialists to discuss your unique situation.
