Kickassd Monitoring Technology And What It Means For You

Let’s face it, things go wrong on a regular basis when it comes to server, software, and Webhosting. Processes die, hardware fails, networks go offline, scripts hang and crash just to name a few. All of these things if not immediately taken care of impact you, the customer, business owner, blogger, and they can cost you money, reputation, and stress.

Here at Kickassd Hosting we have went through great lengths in monitoring all of our systems and servers so we are notified instantly should a process, network, or server hand, die and or show degraded performance. Even more we have put systems in place that not only watch everything possible like a hawk, but will restart them if needed or even run secondary programs if needed to fix the issue. We actually have monitoring software monitoring our monitoring software!

We know instantly if there is degraded performance anywhere in our network and in most cases our monitor has the ability to fix the issue immediately. Also here at Kickassd we use pure SSD storage, no caching just 100% SSD. We monitor every SSD’s health and check them on a daily basis through the use of smartmontools.

While the Intel SSD drives we use are extremely durable and reliable we do not take any chances. Smartmontools continuously monitors and reports specifically on our SSD health. While not bulletproof this does let us in some cases see potential problem drives before they fail completely and swap them out before they cause problems.

This extremely robust, flexible, and reliable monitoring, prevention, and auto response monitoring is why your website and or Docker containers stay online and running optimally. Just another example of our unbending, unwaivering dedication and commitment to quality and you!
