Canadian Web Hosting Upgrades Shared Web Hosting Servers

Canadian Web Hosting
has completed an upgrade project for their shared web hosting servers
to take advantage of technologies including improved R/W SSD caching.

As part of this, the company has also increased server resources
including disk space and RAM, as well as support for applications
like Drupal, Joomla and WordPress in their shared hosting environment
to ensure high level of customer satisfaction.

As part of the upgrade, it has increased shared hosting disk I/O
rate through expanded use of caching through hardware upgrades and
new technologies. With this upgrade, each shared hosting server that
hosts a website, static pages, web applications, databases or
e-commerce store will benefit from faster data rates and end-users
will have improved access and faster load times. To achieve this, the
business utilized the SSDs from Intel and Crucial using 520-series
and M4 series drives. Each flash memory drive includes 256GB of
storage and offers improved SSD R/W caching and is configured in
RAID-10. In addition, every server utilizes VMware virtualization and
includes at least 32GB of RAM and dual E5 Xeon processors that
when combined deliver overall performance improvements by as much as
60% when compared to other Canadian-based shared hosting providers.

"We host many users operating High Performance websites,
web applications, databases and indexes, as well as environments in
which data is subject to frequent access and requires power and
flexibility but don’t have the budget flexibility to move to cloud
hosting or a dedicated server," says Canadian Web Hosting director, Matt McKinney. "During the upgrade, we performed
repeated tests and uncovered truly unprecedented performance as well
as lower server load that translates to more processing power and
elimination of potential bottlenecks for our customers. We are happy
to say that our upgraded shared servers offer unparalleled
performance and with our new 50% shared hosting promotion we’ve made
it easier than ever to move to Canadian Web Hosting."

With the launch of the shared hosting services, The company is
offering new customers a 50% discount on shared hosting plans. With
this offer, it is easier to move to its infrastructure, 24/7 support,
and safety and security of Canada’s privacy regulations with a 100%
Canadian-owned and -operated service.
