Our Servers

DISKMANdotNet has been providing domain names and web hosting since 1995 and along the way has improved performance, security and reliability year in year out.  DISKMANdotNet has literally hosted thousands of customers over the years and continues to do so at a rapid rate.  Our environment is flexible and currently accommodates small to medium and even large companies; existing or new, to politicians, to rock bands to mum and dad businesses.  We can service any type of requirement which is based on a Linux, PHP and MySQL format.

For your business, downtime is not an option. That's why we've partnered with Dedicated Servers, who are specialists in providing fast and reliable web hosting services and with Sapia who provide stringent security implementations for our environment.  We monitor 24/7 and proactively we implement ongoing measures to ensure we stay ahead of the risks.  

Thanks to our partners, our network is constantly evolving to bring you greater network uptime, more capacity and faster response times than ever before. We currently peer with multiple carrier grade partners, which allows us a truly multi-homed network for all traffic – local, national and international connectivity for your customers has never been easier.

In an Australian first, our data centre partners have implemented DDOS mitigation on our international transit links; as 99% of all attacks stem from international locations, this means that as soon as a DDOS is detected, its removed at a carrier level before it enters our network – we're now able to react faster and ensure network integrity.

Peering at a state level means that the shortest path possible to your servers, no matter where you are; we also utilise a inter-capital link from Brisbane to Sydney for redundancy. We'll be adding Melbourne to our east-coast backbone shortly.

Our core network is fully redundant, from diverse fibre feeds to core switching equipment.

Our systems only use Cisco networking equipment, including Cisco's own net-flow accounting for accurate and live network traffic to and from your server.

Server backups

We are of course aware of the seriousness of your data and content and take seriously measures in place to get you back up and running should the worst take place.

Our back up procedures are:

Local daily, weekly and monthly backups
Off-shore daily backups

Your cPanel also gives you the opportunity to take your own backups of either FULL or Partial data and content.
