Single points of failure are a real drag. If you haven't figured out that two is better than one, you should do the math. Even home desktop manufacturers are giving people the option of RAID (a type of redundant disk array) for their machines. The reason? Gremlins. Yes, those tiny little pixies that manage to eat data.

Well, HostingZoom is the pixie killer.

Clustered Failover technology. What does that mean? No more gremlins. High availability servers for the same costs as single threaded machines equals GREAT DEAL. On any other web host provider's machine, if there's some catastrophic failure, you are down HARD. On HostingZoom, a hiccup like that just means a millisecond of fail-over to the new machine. The data you had before the hungry gremlins infilitrated is still there after they've lunched.

Not only are the front-end services protected, but the back-end database servers are clustered to improve performance as well. More shared resources means less overhead for everyone in the cluster. Its a simple principle that many have overlooked for the simplicity of single "silo" machines.

The basic failover hosted plan includes most all of the components you would expect:

• PHP 4 & 5, MySQL, CGI, Perl, Python
• Thirty (30) day money-back guarantee
• Frontpage extensions
• Email, webmail, anti-virus, anti-spam software
• 3 E-commerce shopping cart options
• web based control panel
• monthly billing options
