Website Hosting

Holden Dynamics has over 25 years of practical "hands on" experience with Computers and related systems. We were pioneers in introducing the Internet to Australians

We now provide 2 options of Webhosting:
Both provide state-of-the-art service and reliability, 24/7 technical back-up and support.

To answer an often asked question, we have as much control and responsibility over one as the other - we (like other companies) are resellers/aggregators of their services to meet the needs of our customers. All contact with the hosting companies takes place via telephone, fax or email - so physical proximity is not an issue. The criteria for judging is therefore reliability, speed and cost. We have found both providers equally reliable with ample speed.

The decision for customers comes down to:
1. cost and
2. comfortability with your site being hosted outside Australia

The choice is yours !

  Overview of our US Datacentre
 
  The Data Hosting Centre we utilise owns and operates two state-of-the-art data centers in secure locations in the US, offering complete redundancy in power, HVAC, fire suppression, network connectivity, and security. With over 53,000 sq ft of raised floor between the two facilities, their datacenter facility sits atop multiple power grids driven by TXU electric, with PowerWare UPS battery backup power and dual diesel generators onsite. Their HVAC systems are condenser units by Data Aire to provide redundancy in cooling coupled with ten managed backbone providers. Twelve more third party backbone providers are available in their buildings via cross connect. Fire suppression includes a pre-action dry pipe system including VESDA (Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus) with over 700 smoke detectors between the two facilities.
