Question

Managed dedicated hosting recommendations? Replication & failover?

Hello,

I'm looking for hosting company recommendations. Currently I have an internal department managing the website for me (primary & replicated failover Win2k3 webservers with CF9 Standard, SQL Server 2005 Standard primary and replicated failover at another location). We need to move this set up a managed dedicated location offsite. Our traffic is medium to high, but it's mostly page views without video or heavy imagery.

So my question is, do any hosting companies offer managed dedicated systems with replication as an option? Do they manage something like the F5 and uptime or would that be my responsibility? We just can't risk having the site go down without a backup location serving the same site, even with their 99.9999% uptime guarantees.

CrystalTech looks decent but I don't see that they offer replication?

    For sure, it is out there.  But I can't really suggest anybody.

    A company I once worked for used Rackspace.  I think they where on a plan with them that had replication.

    But I suspect all the big companies probably do this.  But it might not be the type of informaiton they talk about up front on their web site.

    Your the kind of user they expect to call them and talk about the requirments so they can get personal with you before they drop how expensive this type of service can be.
