Web Hosting
This secure backend solution integrated with professional design and development
enables ERG to provide a high standard of available web services to our clients.
Systems
The ERG data centre houses the data collection servers and systems in a secure zone.
These are in two air conditioned rooms, with battery backed UPS and a building wide emergency power generator.
Data is replicated to the web servers on another network that has limited public access,
so people can see the data on our websites.
Security
Our webservers are hardened to improve their security, and pages are designed to provide multiple
levels of protection. The webteam also ensures a minimum downtime for the web servers by routinely
running maintenance tasks and Internet Security tests.
Domain Names
Domain names can also be registered for clients allowing the web address of their choice
to be used with their website. External domains can also be configured using
DNS to point to the dedicated web server allowing
local authority domains (gov.uk) to work with ERG's web solutions.
