ServerOrigin/ethProxy Subscribers,

ServerOrigin is proud to announce a couple of new features available to you. The best part about the additional features is that we are providing them free of charge to all current and new subscribers.

DNS Failover Option:

If you are not already taking advantage of our DNS failover abilities, we invite you to opt-in. Send us a message and we’ll get you configured. This option provides for a 99.99% uptime guarantee with ServerOrigin. This free feature gives you multiple advantages:

• More than 100 DNS servers strategically placed around the world to provide the least amount of latency and highest availability with a 100% Uptime guarantee for DNS services.
• Fast failover in case of full datacenter/proxy hardware failure. If our datacenter or our proxy has a failure or a maintenance planned, once the failure is detected your proxy protection is immediately and automatically moved to an alternate datacenter.
• Fast propagation. With nameservers around the world, we can provide near immediate propagation on DNS changes that will be seen by 97% of the world in under 30 minutes.

Setup is fast and easy! You notify us you’d like to get the service configured, we make the modifications on our end and in the next few minutes we’ll provide you nameserver addresses to configure at your domain registar. Once that change is made, you’re protected!

DDoS Protected Shared Failover:

Our newest option available free of charge to all customers! The purpose of DDoS protection and automated failovers are simply to increase uptime. In order to guarantee uptime then you have to remove the single points of failure. If you’re a customer without a load-balanced set of servers of hot failover servers available (most aren’t) then this option is perfect for you!

Did you know that we provide free load balancing with every proxy plan?

So think of this… ServerOrigin’s DNS failover service almost guarantees you 100% uptime and we are now investing more than 1 million dollars in additional backbone bandwidth and equipment to provide you complete datacenter redundancy.

What if your server fails? What if it needs to be patched? What if a drive goes bad? What if YOUR datacenter has a power failure? What if your datacenter loses network connectivity? Problem Solved! FREE

We’re proud to announce our DDoS Protected Shared failover solution.

• 20GB Disk Space / Unmetered bandwidth
• cPanel 11 + WHM
• LiteSpeed Web Server

Now you can have a backup copy of your website, database, etc. Store it on our servers and if yours fails for any reason, our failover service will automatically detect the failure. We’ll switch to your backup copy on our servers immediately. This will be completely transparent to the end-user.

How’s 100% uptime sound? Accomplish it for free!

Please feel free to contact our support department and let us know what you’d like to opt-in for. We will get you started and like I said… This is free! No setup, no catch.

No other DDoS provider will offer you this kind of deal!

You ask why? This is our way of saying, “Thank you”. You have helped us grow and become the single largest provider of DDoS protection in the mid-level market. We appreciate you and we know the better your business does, the better we do.

If you have any questions, please let us know.

Thanks again!

ServerOrigin.Com – ServerOrigin Management Group:

We’re proud to announce our ethProxy service now has a website it can call home.

http://www.ethproxy.com

Several Software Modifications:

• Additional layer of filtering added for SYN flood attacks.
• Integration of filtering rules across all sites. (All sites used by the ethProxy service will now dynamically adhere to policies customized across other sites. Now tracking up to 1.2 Million IP’s)
• Smart-filtering based on # of times the offender has hit the offender list.
• Database-driven filtering with in-memory database caching.
• RAM upgrade to all filtering routers.
• Increased overall protection by another 3Gbps.

DDoS protection and DDoS protected hosting has never looked so good! And guess what? We do it while being cheaper than anyone else on the market with *real* protection!

–CEO Statement:

To explain the statement above with a little more clarity… I’d like to say that we monitor Google/Yahoo! on a daily basis and we’re watching our competition like any good business would do. We want to know what others are offering and we want to integrate their good ideas with our own. Why not? It works and it works well because we’re picking up corporate clients on a daily basis. In six months time we are protecting more website than the largest provider on the market (***lexic). We offer genuine no-frills DDoS protection that works.

You ask, “So Kevin what are you getting at?”.

I’m simply stating that we see DDoS companies show up every day. They drop $7,000 and buy an appliance with an honest plan to step into the arena of DDoS protection. The issue lies in the fact that most of those companies do not have expertise in this field and do not fully understand what they are asking for. They believe they can buy a 1Gbps appliance and protect 10 servers or half a datacenter and it just isn’t the case. ServerOrigin.Com gets hit with nearly 9Gbps attacks once a month. There isn’t an out-of-the-box appliance that scales into the 10Gbps market and provides enough protection to keep an end-server online.  Our product is a creation based on countless years of experience and a multi-year effort to custom write a back-end clustered scrubbing/filtering environment that can handle attacks 8-10x as large as what hit twitter. We are more than 1 million dollars into this business with additional infrastructure being added daily to keep up with demand.

This market is being flooded with providers claiming to offer protection and it is alarming. It’s good for our business because they normally end up with us when the competitor’s product doesn’t work. Although, it’s the consumer that’s really getting the short end of the stick and it’s a shame to see so many people being taken advantage of in their time of need. We hope to change the way people see DDoS protection and we hope to show the masses that we will be the best available option on the market.

– Just a note to the consumer:

Please do your research before purchasing DDoS protection and don’t buy based on just how pretty the website is. It is almost like buying a car. Ask for a test-drive! I am unsure about other providers but I know we will stand up protection for you within 30 minutes! We will offer you a trial period and if we can’t stop the attack, you’ll never get a bill. We guarantee that we can stop your attacks or we’ll refund the entire amount. No other provider in the industry offers that guarantee.

Thanks for stopping by!
