Hosting Infrastructure
HostRail.com is company manager Dylan Trooien's answer to large hosting companies like GoDaddy and HostGator. "HostRail is honest about its products and truly dedicated to helping each customer with their individual web needs," said Trooien. HostRail also does not outsource customer service help to foreign countries, but rather is committed to hiring only within the US.
Grid Technology
HostRail stands out as a pioneer in grid technology on a consumer level.
HostRail provides internet services on a highly reliable grid technology by 3Tera. With grid technology by 3Tera, scaling no longer means that HostRail needs to configuring new servers, reinstall software, or move data. Instead, websites and data can be scaled from a fraction of a server to dozens of machines or more, with no need for down time. With 3Tera, an application is not bound to a particular physical resource.
With this infrastructure, HostRail has eliminated data loss and extended downtime. All data on the grid is automatically mirrored across the grid it resides on. If a server fails, all data remains available, and any affected websites are automatically restarted elsewhere on the grid. This means that all websites will stay online.
