Voxtreme understands the need for high-performance hardware
to serve websites. We use AMD Dual Opteron hardware
with 2GB+ of RAM and SATA drives as the minimum specification
for our web servers. We use high quality motherboards
and chassis with excellent cooling ensuring the smooth
running of all of our hardware.
Servers run on CentOS linux from versions 4.x onwards,
using custom kernels tweaked for performance, security
and stability. Web pages are serverd by a heavily tweaked
Apache web server, again optimized for performance,
security and stability. Servers are monitored carefully
on a regular basis. Automatic checks of services occur
every 2 minutes, with frequent manual audits of performance
and security. Extensive notification systems ensure
that system administrators are notified the minute something
out of the ordinary occurs on a server.
