Hardware
Currently we utilize top-quality, well-tested, hardware on our web- and data-servers. Our web-servers are powered by at least 2Ghz Intel CPUs with at least one Gigabyte of RAM, while our dedicated MySQL and PostgreSQL servers run on 64bit-enabled AMD64 platform, with at least 1.5 Gigabytes of RAM and fast SCSI hard drives to let your sites load as quickly as possible. As a major hosting platform we chose FreeBSD-i386 operation system, which is a great OS combining both security and flexibility at the same time!
On top of FreeBSD, we are utilizing CPanel's set of control panels, which allows us to provide three layers of system administration - "Server Administrator" -> "Reseller" -> "End User".
CPanel is one of the most popular control panel vendors - it provides maximum flexibility to our resellers and end users. Our experience with CPanel starts with 3.x version.
