Hosting Services

We have extensive knowledge and experience in hosting data and web servers “On the Cloud” – using Amazon Web Services GovCloud to render in-house hardware solutions unnecessary and obsolete.  We can move your entire IT infrastructure to the GovCloud, so that you can stop worrying about upgrading and scaling up your computing capacity to meet increasing demands.

  • By employing Amazon Web Services and “computing on the cloud”, CalmForce is able to provide its customers with reliable and secure data Hosting Solution with 99.95% availability guaranteed by Amazon.com. For unlimited data storage and archiving functions, CalmForce utilizes Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). It allows access to the same highly scalable, reliable, fast data storage infrastructure that Amazon uses to run its own global network of web sites. Amazon S3 Service provides a standards-based and high performance mechanism for managing content. S3's performance characteristics make it ideal for end-user as well as enterprise applications where cost-effective data storage is desired.
     
  • To host customers’ Web portals, SQL databases and Web Applications software, CalmForce uses Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), a web service that provides resizable computing capacity. Amazon EC2's web service interface allows obtaining and configuring capacity with minimal friction. It provides CalmForce complete secure control of acquired computing resources and allows running Linux or Windows servers on Amazon's proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 presents a true virtual computing environment providing web service interfaces to requisition machines for use and the ability to load these machines with custom application environments, manage the network's access permissions, and run the virtual servers using as many or few systems as desired. Amazon EC2 reduces the time required to obtain and boot new virtual servers to minutes, allowing quick scaling of needed capacity, both up and down, as computing requirements change.
