In addition to focusing on the unique strengths of IM-HOST in our presentation, we should also take the time to focus time on the core software and hardware components of the IM-HOST servers.
The information below, when combined with our presentation in the Infrastructure section, provides you with everything you need to know to assure your website will have an uptime of 99.9% - no more stress - a relief from all your hosting headaches.

Our servers range from Dual Pentium III machines all the way up to Dual Opteron 64-bit monsters. Each machine has at least 1Ghz of processing power, with our most powerful range of servers running with 5Ghz. If you need power and reliability, we can offer you both many times over.

Fedora is our 32-bit operating system of choice. With Linux at its core, the most stable TCP/IP stack of all available server operating systems and a host of management tools it is the ultimate solution for reliability, flexibility and performance. We use the latest release with all security patches and updates applied, as well as our own custom security.
For our 64-bit machines we use SuSE Enterprise Server, a tried and tested 64-bit platform with 32-bit downward compatibility. With optimal performance in the areas that count, and infinite compatibilty with existing software we've found SuSE Enterprise Linux outperforms every other option on the market.

Ranging in capacity from 512MB on our Dual Pentium III options, all the way up to 12G capacity on our Dual Opteron 64-bit machines we definitely offer the right server to fit your need. And with direct 24/7 access to our server array, upgrades are always an option.
All of our memory is tested extensively on install to ensure top reliability and performance.

With TeraBytes of total HD space in our server array, high-performance SCSI arrays with redundant data storage and hot-swap bays our storage solutions offer the perfect balance between space, speed and stability. We will always be able to meet your storage requirements, and if for some reason we can't our structure is modelled for infinite expandability.

| The robust exterior-independent design of our data center allows us to serve the needs of our clients regardless of what happens in the outside world. Our facility is climate sealed from the outside and climate controlled from the inside to ensure maximum security against server heat-outages. Even thunderstorms or earthquakes cannot hurt us. They have been here, done that and not a single one of our servers was ever affected. |
Server Monitoring Feature
We monitor our servers, routers and switches around the clock 24 / 7. The monitoring system we developed is keeping a watch on all of our machines as you read this. The following services are being monitored around the clock: Conn, DNS, FTP, HTTP, POP3, SMTP, SSL, MySql. With this monitoring system any issues or problems that might arise will be handled before you even notice them! Our techs receive an immediate cell phone call from the system.

Anti-Hacking Security
Has your current webhost been hacked before? Did you lose all your valuable files and critical information? Avoid being hacked again! We use firewalls and hacker prevention methods for your benefit while still allowing you SSH access to securely work from the shell to perform your own tasks without being locked out.

Tight Focus
Unlike other companies that offer a smorgasbord of hardware and software platforms, IM-HOST focuses solely on Intel/Linux. This combination gives the best price performance ratio for servers.
Our in-house Linux expertise, unmatched in the industry, also sets us apart from our competitors. Unlike other companies, all our staff is proficient in Linux and can exploit its advantages in networking, scripting and management automation.
The end result to our customers is an excellent value at a more than reasonable price. For this reason, our company is growing at one of the fastest rates in the industry, with an outstanding customer retention.
