Data security and integrity is vital to us here at Senior, and our server infrastructure reflects that. Superfast SAN storage means that your data is stored over multiple redundant disks, ensuring that even a complete disk failure will not compromise your data or cause any downtime.
Data backup plans are available with all of our server packages. Your data can be backed up on a daily basis and archived for up to 12 months. If you have a specific data backup or archiving request, please contact us, and we will can discuss the available options.
The significant investment made by Senior to develop our hosting solution, together with our focus on its ongoing maintenance, has proved worthwhile. We have had zero unplanned downtime on our network since it went live, despite the usual individual hardware failures and faults from our transit providers, our robust design has ensured that your business critical hosting is very safe when entrusted to Senior.
