Technical setup

Each Storage Monster can be configured to your needs. For typical setups we suggest:

  • Small, RAID-1 (mirrored) volume for simple OS installation
  • Storage drives combined into a single unit using RAID-6
  • Storage volume formatted with LVM (so you can easily partition, and repartition)

We can set up the drives up in other ways but we think this strikes a good balance between a reliably-booting system, safe data and high storage capacity.

Ideal for Big Data

  • Store and query large datasets
  • Offer public access or lock it down to your private access list
  • Use any combination of database technology — we’ll help advise on how to set it up

Great for large data archives

  • Keep your backups or archives stored securely
  • Our data centre is monitored 24/7
  • Your server will report any disk faults so we can take proactive action
  • Redundant disk arrays (RAID) help keep your data safe
Thank you so much. The move was very smooth from our point of view. Thank you very much for taking care of this as smoothly as you did.

Fair pricing

Our prices for hosting are transparent — we quote only from list prices and don’t offer “used car salesmen” discretionary discounts. Our staff have no sales targets and we pay no commission. However, we do respect long-term commitment and can offer a fair reduction for 2-3 year contracts.
