FastBytes full range of dedicated hosting solutions provides true scalability for your enterprise applications. See below for a list of the features and applications that make up our dedicated hosting platforms.

Managed Dedicated Servers

With managed servers, you receive the support of a dedicated team, including an account manager, systems engineer and support representative. Support is available 24x7x365 to help you manage your servers, install software, and more

These dedicated servers provide clients with a state-of-the-art environment to host enterprise level websites, where the purpose of the site is more than simply to act as a brochure for the company. This type of website will typically have some or all of these components: e-commerce, custom databases, user interactivity, custom forms and email to contact someone at your company.

Managed dedicated servers are ideal for clients without prior server administration expertise or mission critical sites requiring server management by the host

FastBytes’ managed dedicated servers come equipped with a control panel that enables the non-server administrator to easily setup and maintain the server. This is achieved through an intuitive and user friendly point and click method rather than by typing complicated commands at a prompt line. This control panel gives users nearly the same type and level of automation that FastBytes sales people enjoy when setting up new accounts.

Either the server owner /'Administrator' or a client can conduct the following activities:

• Setup email/alias/default email accounts
• View site statistics and traffic
• Create password protect directories
• Review documentation to frequently asked questions
• Setup DSN's (Windows NT only)
• Perform other tasks without adversely affecting other settings on the server

This control panel eliminates the necessity of having root access to the server.

Un-Managed Dedicated Servers

Whereas the managed dedicated server solutions cater to the non-server administrator type of personality, those who want to truly have the power and freedom of administering and running a server remotely prefer the services of our unmanaged dedicated server solutions.

These servers are ideal for Individuals/companies with extensive server administration resources or expertise and designers/developers who require root access to remotely administer the server, install and maintain custom/third party applications and develop full custom applications in a highly controlled and optimized environment.

There are no control panel technologies present within these servers.

FastBytes delivers superior technical support, in terms of connectivity, to our unmanaged clients. Our staff is available 24x7 and our dedicated customers are served by a superior group of technical staff. This staff has typically been promoted from Level One Technical Support to become a dedicated support representative. As well, the ratio of support staff to clients is much higher than for our shared client.
