Our comprehensive hosting services include:
- 24/7 hosting—Our network administrators monitor the network around the clock and can be reached in case a problem arises with the server. That means little to no down time for hosted Web sites.
- Business continuity —We have offsite backup as well as recovery plans for all of our Web sites.
- Domain registration—We can register all types of domains, including .gov, .ws, and .tv and also can register as a domain hosting service.
- Convenience—We have many hosting capabilities that benefit our clients’ Web sites.
- Security—All of our Web servers are located behind a firewall to protect our servers from possible attack. Our network administrators also belong to many security organizations that notify us of security holes as soon as they appear. Our network administrators are conscientious about not only reading the bulletins but acting on them immediately.
- Secure servers—Our secure servers use 128-bit encryption to process encrypted information such as credit card numbers, ensuring the strongest possible online security. We allow nothing but necessary files on our dedicated secure servers. We further enforce security on the servers by restricting access to a limited group of programmers and Web developers.
Macro’s hosting infrastructure is designed to be fully redundant, robust, and scaleable. Our goal is to provide public access to the online systems we host 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. We custom build all of our servers to meet specific systems demands. Our servers and network configurations also are optimized for maximum uptime, and our highly professional and knowledgeable network staff members stay informed of the latest technologies and security risks.
Other hosting capabilities include:
- File transfer protocol (FTP) servers—We have
several FTP servers to allow clients the ability to deliver
files of
any size securely over the Internet.
- Google search engine—Our Google search engine can handle an index database of more than several million documents.
- Majordomo listserv software—Majordomo is a program that automates the management of Internet mailing lists.
- Microsoft SQL database engines—Microsoft SQL Server provides the most cost-effective performing solution.
- Microsoft Site Server search engines—Microsoft Site Server indexing technology provides full text indexing of Microsoft SQL Server databases using open database connectivity and active server pages. This technology is not limited to full text indexing of resources on a single server; it can be used to full text search the contents of other sites and servers.
- Microsoft streaming media server—Our dedicated media server provides a digital broadcasting platform to distribute audio and video media over the Internet.
- Collaboration software and team services —Collaboration products, such as SharePoint, give users the ability to organize information, readily access that information, manage documents, and collaborate efficiently —all in a familiar, browser-based environment.
- WAP-enabled Web page hosting—WAP stands for wireless
application protocol, although in reality WAP is a
collection of protocols and specifications. This technology provides information
and services on the Internet to wireless clients and
WAP devices, such as mobile phones and terminals.
