March 20, 2007 – (TopHosts News Brief) – After nearly a year of development and preparation, XSI Hosting introduced redundant Domain Name Service (DNS) and mail servers.
With the new servers, the company can provide DNS and email solutions from multiple physical locations, in the United States and England. By geographically dispersing these services, XSI Hosting can ensure email is not lost if a connection to a main server goes down. The redundant DNS allows for faster domain name lookups, thereby increasing website load speed.
“We introduced redundant DNS and mail servers to provide a higher level of service and reliability to our customers, especially as we continue to deploy more advanced and mission-critical business-class offerings,” Larry Stevens, CEO of XSI Hosting parent company Xanadu Servers, Inc., said in a company press release.
The redundant DNS servers work by mirroring the same data across all servers, with each server returning identical records when queried by users. The redundant mail servers simply retain all incoming email messages until a primary server can download the messages and deliver them to the respective recipient.
XSI Hosting plans to eventually add servers to other countries to boost the redundancy of its network and supply better access for a wider variety of customers. It will also utilize the extra mail servers to help in unsolicited bulk email (Spam) mitigation.
