Affino Hosting

Overview

For its current Clients, Comrz offers 3 different levels of hosting - Shared, High Performance, and Load-balanced High Performance. Nearly every Client starts on Shared Hosting, at least for the development and implementation phase of their solution delivery. As sites become more busy and start to take on enterprise levels of interactions and transactions handling, then the hosting provision needs to be ramped up in step.

All of Comrz’s hosting makes use of the latest ’Cloud Computing’ and ’Virtualisation’ technologies - which ensure optimal flexibility and responsiveness. Comrz actively monitors all server such that if there is a technical glitch and a server goes down, it is restored in a matter of a few minutes - which is a significant benefit however rare and far apart such incidents might be.

The vast majority of Comrz-hosted sites sit on some sort of shared infrastructure at some level, as costs tend to become quickly prohibitive for all but the very wealthy few - when it comes to fully dedicated hosting provision.
