Web Wiz Data Centre Efficiency22 August 2018, in Eco Data Centre Environmental Ethics are at the core of our business and one of the primary design aims of our new Eco Data Centre was to make it as energy efficient as possible.Our new Eco Data Centre has been running now for 3 months (May 2018 to August 2018) during this time we have been keeping a record of energy usage. To calculate the efficiency of a Data Centre and help identify areas where improvements can be made The Green Energy Grid came up with Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) metric. Over the first 3 month period our new Eco Data Centre has been running it has run with a PUE rating of 1.41. This is very good but we believe that it could be better. By measuring our PUE we have identified areas such as UPS and Cooling Systems where further efficiencies can be made. We are looking into solutions with the help of Dorset County Council's Low Carbon Dorset to further reduce energy consumption. |

HTTPS - Is Your Website Ready for Chrome 68?05 July 2018, in Hosting Services Google is set to release Chrome 68 an update to their Chrome Web Browser in July 2018, which will mark all HTTP websites as 'Not Secure' in the browser address bar.
Chrome 68 will include a security check to see if the website is using an encrypted connection over an HTTPS web address. To avoid this 'Not Secure' label the website would need to have an SSL/TLS Certificate and all traffic be directed to an HTTPS web address. Web Wiz is able to provide an SSL/TLS Certificate for our Hosting Customers for as little as £29.95 + VAT per year. SSL Certificates bought through ourselves include the application submission to the SSL authority and setting up the SSL certificate on the Customers website with a Search Engine Optimised (SEO) redirect from the previous HTTP address to the new HTTPS address. For more information please create a Ticket in your Client Area Account; |
