At CreativeSparks.com, the security
of our systems is our highest priority. On-site
physical security measures are in place to ensure
the safety and security of our network and systems.
The level of redundancy built into our network infrastructure
ensures that our systems will never go down and
that there is no single point of failure. Relying
on a single web server for your business is a risky
endeavor. Machines can and do go down. Can you afford
for your site to go down with them?
CreativeSparks.com's managed server is designed
to never go down because we have eliminated all
single points of failure. Our Internet gateway is
made redundant through the implementation of BGP4
(Border Gateway Protocol), which ensures that our
multiple T3 connections are always available and,
in the event that one goes down, the other will
seamlessly pick up the slack. Our Cisco routers
are made redundant through the use of HSRP (Hot
Swappable Router Protocol), which guarantees that
our network will never skip a beat. Utilizing load-balancing
hardware designed for fail over in the event of
a fault, we guarantee our clustered servers will
always remain up and running 99.9% of the time.
Data integrity and speed are assured by Network
Appliance Filers using RAID5 storage technology.
A Redundant Array of Independent Drives (RAID) accomplishes
this by copying or "mirroring" all data onto offline
drives. If an online drive fails, another identical
drive brings itself online to ensure the availability
of its data. Backups of all data are routine, automatic
and kept on-site. These backups are duplicated at
two state of the art, world-class data centers that
are geographically separated. All of our data centers
are climate controlled, maintain extensive backup
systems and employ physical security measures.

services are hosted on a closed source platform.
The 99.9% guarantee does not apply for these
services.
