  • Custom Qmail Mail Server setup with Antispam/Antivirus tools Inbuilt
The above four servers have two Ethernet Cards and are connected to a private switch. The second ethernet card on each server is used for internal communication between these boxes. This provides faster and secure database connectivity as well as almost null packet loss for internal communications. The above setup is fully managed with basic monitoring services offered with the setup. The data from the master SQL Server is resynced across the webservers which serve http requests in a round robin mode. The setup also includes fully managed DNS service with failover nameservers. The webservers use Lighttpd + FastCGI setup for lighting fast webserving and PHP processing. The Mysql Server is optimized for maximum performance and comes with automated managed backups. The Mail Server uses a custom built installation of qmail with tools like Clam Antivirus and Spamassassin installed . Squirrelmail is also provided as a webmail client with this setup.
