WebIntellects VPS

In collaboration with SW Soft and their distinctive virtualization technology, Web Intellect provides a virtual hosting environment where your VPS (and all your sites) are isolated for any other WebIntellects customers whose sites are utilizing the same physical hardware. And unlike with shared hosting, WebIntellects can guarantee certain resources (ie. bandwidth and storage allotments) to their VPS plan customers. Mastering the art of value-adding collaborations, WebIntellects uses CCC Communications for its datacenter which has possibly the most impressive infrastructure of its peers.

Editors' Comments
Many web site owners have outgrown their shared hosting environment and would like a dedicated presence but don't want to pay for their own dedicated server. Here comes WebIntellects and SW Soft to the rescue. This company has taken it upon themselves to be one of the Industry leaders focused on delivering top-notch VPS solutions. WebIntellects solves this problem by providing you with an affordable, solution combined with SW Soft's unique virtualization technology that ensures you will get isolation between your Virtual Private Server (VPS) and others on the physical server, as well as guaranteed service quality levels for disk space, bandwidth, memory and CPU.
 
With the Virtuozzo Power Panel, customers of WebIntellects will be able to manage their VPSs like never before. This includes a powerful new feature for 'physical server level reboots'. This means that if your VPS is down, you will no longer have to open a support ticket and wait for a tech to restart your VPS. From the Power Panel GUI, you will be able to reboot your VPS as if you were standing next to dedicated server in a datacenter and hit the reset button. Pretty good stuff - and you don't have to pay dedicated server prices.
 
Uptime Guarantee
Guarantees aside, since moving in to their new $10 million datacenter, WebIntellects has experienced 100% network uptime.
 
Resource Guarantees: Includes CPU, disk space and network guarantees. Guarantees on memory - user and kernel, physical and virtual . Guarantees on disk I/O and many other critical resources (over 20).

Performance Isolation: Heavy traffic and CPU load on one Private Server will not have a negative effect on the other Private Servers.
 
Functional Isolation: Each Private Server has its own set of applications and services.
 
Fault Isolation: Errors created on Private Server will not affect other Private Servers. For example, a bad CGI script can crash a server, but with Ensim's fault isolation, only the Private Server with the script will be affected.

Address Isolation: Each Private Server has its own set of IP addresses.
 
Basics - What you need to know
DataCenter
At CCC Communications, WebIntellects' chosen datacenter, your VPS will run on a minimum of 2 3.0 GHz Xeon processor with 8 GB RAM, Apache 2 and CentOS 4 installed, and direct fiber connections to multiple Tier 1 providers. They utilize PathControl by RouteScience to maximize the speed of all your sites' activity.
 
The environment is protected by 180-ton closed-loop chiller systems designed specifically for data centers. Computer Room Air Conditioning Units circulate throughout the floor. Critical airflows are constantly monitored for temperature, humidity, and hydrogen content. A "Triple-Lock Pre-Action" fire detection and suppression system, including multiple VESDA (Very Early Warning Aspirating Smoke Detection) systems monitors the facilities for potential smoke and fire danger and squelch it before it starts.
 
Power Management
The datacenter houses a total of 1 megawatt of redundant UPS power, all on 4000 AMP, 480-volt electrical feeds with automated switching between the two independent transformers on the premises. As if that weren't enough, they also have a 2,400, 48-volt DC Telco positive ground power plant and distribution system. And that's just for main power. Backup power is provided by a 2 megawatt diesel generator with a 3,500 gallon supply of fuel, and another 1 megawatt "paralyzing" UPS system with redundant master and emergency system busses. Early warning and overload protection is provided by routing the UPS power into redundant power distribution units and then into remote power panels monitored down to the circuit breakers' level. 
 
Physical Security
WebIntellects and its partners have a keen eye on security with biometric hand scanners, hi-res motion detecting video surveillance equipment, and onsite security personnel. Electronic card keys track all entrants' movement throughout the facility. Meet-Me and POP facilities can only be entered with an escort. On-site and off-site alarm systems provide even greater protection. Entry is conducted with the strictest possible security protocols.
Server Access by Customer

Physical Access: No physical access to the server with VPS 
Root Access: You get full root access

Customer Testimonials
We chose WebIntellects initially because they had a professional site, appeared to be very organized and provided a clear upgrade path for business sites.

Since then we've never looked back and after having used about 5 other web hosting providers in the past we know that Webintellects are just so far ahead in quality, service and options. I doubt we will be looking for another service provider for a long time to come. More likely we'll be hosting more sites with them in the near future.

If anyone is considering signing up with Webintellects, just go for it. It's the best move you could make for your online business. To the Webintellects team, thanks for your great service to date and keep up the great work you all do.
