Managed Web Cluster

MGI Data Managed Cluster is aimed especially at companies that are looking for a highly available and flexible solution for their critical web applications. With this solution, the customers can concentrate on their core business while delivering a wide range of scalable services to their clients or employees. Large and complex server architectures require the highest possible perfection in planning and implementation. Each MGI Data cluster will be managed on the basis of proven, documented processes and technologies. All processes will be created individually together with the customer, and later implemented by MGI Data. Upon request, our technical sales team will consult with customers (including on-site visits) about the possibilities they can realize with a MGI Data cluster system.
Solution Description

Managed Cluster enables the customer to have a highly available cluster implemented by MGI Data according to his needs. Here, the focus is always to provide the customer with the best solution for performance, availability and compatibility.
Network connectivity is realized via the redundant MGI Data infrastructure. Optionally, the complete administration and maintenance of the configuration can be carried out by MGI Data. The service covers the hardware, the connection to the MGI Data IP Network, the configuration of the server and all associated Managed Services. In addition, the customer is supported by the MGI Data Support Team.
Managed Cluster includes the following services:

  • Consulting (to acquire the technical specifications of the individual service)
  • Individual design of the infrastructure
  • Initial configuration of the server, network infrastructure, load balancer, etc.
  • Configuration adjustments in consultation with the customer
  • Documentation of the service and configuration
  • Maintenance and monitoring of the infrastructure through MGI Data
Configuration Settings

The configuration and administration will be the sole responsibility of the MGI Data staff. For this, an initial meeting between the customer and MGI Data’s Technical Consultants will be arranged. If the client requires changes to be made to the Managed Storage, a change request needs to be submitted by the client and approved by the Technical Consulting team. Once approved, the requested changes will be conducted by MGI Data’s Technical Team.
