Web Hosting with R1Soft is SERIOUS Web Hosting

March 10th, 2010

Backups are an extremely important part of web hosting. Although customers are suppose to keep their own backups (and they should!), we quiet often find our selves being requested for assistance with restoring backups because a customer has accidentally destroyed, or had their website compromised and destroyed.

Aquarius Storage shared hosting customers, do not fret. Your data is safe with us!

R1Soft :: Continuous Data Protection

Aquarius Storage now fully supports R1Soft on ALL of our shared web hosting plans.

What does this mean?

Aquarius Storage’s Affordable Web Hosting plans now provide an interface for the customer to login to their control panel, and view all of the restore points for their website.

We do daily backups of your data, (MySQL, Files, etc) and store them on off-site servers. In the case of hardware failure, or failure on your end to delete the correct file(s), we are able to do restores. You are also able to initiate your own restores from your cPanel by clicking on “R1Soft”

On average, there should be 5-7 restore points for you to choose from.

This is a great addition to the Aquarius Storage feature set, and hope that all customers will enjoy it.

As we said, this is included, FOR FREE, on all Affordable (shared) hosting plans here at Aquarius Storage.

Have a great day everyone, till next time!

A one stop shop for customers at Aquarius Storage

November 8th, 2009

Being a one stop shop for our customers is important here at Aquarius Storage. Once we have you, we try very hard to hold on to you simply, because we have to remember, that yes, clients do pay our paychecks :)

That being said, we are now offering Dedicated Servers!  This is a huge leap forward, as this now means we offer nearly every type of hosting a customer could ever need. You can start your website on our affordable web hosting packages, which will suffice for most small, non CPU/memory intensive websites. You can move to a virtual private server once you start advertising and your website begins to take off. Once you’re ready to start advertising on T.V., chances are its going to be time for a Dedicated Server, and Aquarius Storage now provides these with full management to boot!

Behind the scenes we’re doing a lot to improve our services. We recently just deployed two new servers for shared, reseller, and virtual private server hosting. We will continue to further tweak our support, billing, as well as website to make the experience as seamless as possible for customers. Ready to signup? Great! Check out what we have to offer web hosting wise available at http://www.aquariusstorage.com today!

VPS Platform Switch complete successfully…

June 17th, 2009

After many hours of working around the clock to finish migrating over a few clients who decided to wait till the last minute to purchase a new VPS with us on our new platform as we finished phasing our our old platform which utilized HyperVM, I am happy to say we have completed the move. We will be heavily marketing our new Virtuozzo VPS systems to offset the MUCH higher license fees for the software. In comparison, HyperVM was only .50cents per license. Virtuozzo, starting off, on the other hand, was 20$ per license. We’ve gotten the price down a bit since we’re able to purchase in bulk, however because of the way Virtuozzo licensing works, we’re only limited to how ever many VPS systems we’re able to pull on one server. For each node, we have to start over back at 20$/per month licensing prices until we get enough on the node to get it lower. Anyone instereted in opening an affiliate account with us, please email sales@aquariusstorage.com.

Besides that, we’re still learning a lot about Virtuozzo, but our new platform is very stable, and a great improvement over our HyperVM platform and machines we had with Singlehop. Oh, did I mention we moved all VPS customers from Singlehop to SoftLayer which is located in Dallas Texas. And our VPS nodes now consist of Dual Quard core Intel 5540’s with 32GB of RAM and RAID 10? A nice step up indeed. Hope everyone enjoys the new platform, network, and equipment which result in a better, more stable VPS for all of our customers. Stay tuned for more from us, we’re not done yet :)
