24 x 7 Support/Monitoring
An effective monitoring system is extremely crucial for ensuring maximum uptime. Our monitoring systems and tools provide our system administrators with an all-encompassing view into the health of our distributed infrastructure. We monitor a large number of parameters related to the health of our servers and individual services that reside on them. Services monitored include:

Network Connectivity
Server Disk Space Utilization
Server CPU Utilization
Server Memory Utilization
Web Services Availability - HTTP, HTTPS & FTP
Email Services Availability - SMTP, POP & IMAP
Database Services
DNS Services
Log Files

If any server or service fails, or any resource utilization exceeds specified limits, then a notification is received by our Infrastructure Monitoring Staff. The notification system also handles escalation of issues i.e. if the issue is not resolved within 'x' minutes, SMS alerts are sent out to higher-level system administrators, and subsequently to Management.

All of this allows us to detect and resolve any issue within minutes of it happening and ensures maximum uptime for our end users.
