The unique ways we set up our servers makes huge differences.
Autoscaling
A cyber-attack uses up a lot of web hosting resources, even if it’s unsuccessful. If you’re on our shared hosting, our autoscaling servers will account for the attack, meaning that your site will stay fast and online. At other hosts, an attack on one of your hosting ‘neighbours’ can slow down your site. Not so at BYTE.
No single point of failure
Our platform has redundancy at every level. In the event of a hardware, software or network failure, automatic failover occurs to bring services back online. This redundant hardware and software design helps availability and mitigate data loss.
Isolated server roles
Web servers serve only websites, MySQL servers just run MySQL and email servers only email. Logs are sent to central log servers. These isolated server roles mean that even in the worst-case scenario where your website was compromised, an attacker won’t be able to cover their tracks or read your email.
