:: Our
Servers
Website Worker's
web servers are custom-built industrial machines
designed for a 24/7 web serving environment. All
Website Worker servers are equipped with dual redundant
450-watt power supplies, hot swap Seagate Baracuda/Cheetah
drives and force-filtered cooling systems. In
addition, our NOC is equipped with an inventory
of identically configured, burned-in standby servers.
Force
Filtered Cooling
All of Website Worker's
custom web servers are equipped with a positive
pressure filtered-air system. Four large fans
pull filtered air into each server's protective
case and the components within are cooled by fans
which circulate this purified air. This constant
introduction of clean air into the case creates
a positive pressure environment ensuring dust
and particles remain outside of the server.
Hot
Swap Seagate Drives
The drives and
drive bays of all Website Worker servers are constructed
from high-grade aluminum, and rest in shock mounted
drive cages, which adds to the durability of the
hardware. Website Worker's drives proudly feature
the lowest failure rate in the industry.
Redundant
Hot Swap Power Supplies
Each server employs
dual-redundant hot swap power supplies. If a power
supply were to fail, the server would continue
running with power from the alternate supply.
Meanwhile, alarms would alert a technician, who
would quickly restore redundancy. In the meantime,
servers and client sites would experience no downtime.
Standby
Servers
We keep spare servers
on-line of all CPU configurations. If a server
were to experience a hardware failure, we would
turn a key, grab the handle on the drive, pull
it out, and insert it into an identical standby
CPU. We would then reboot the second machine and
the server would be up and running again in a
matter of minutes.
