Hosting provides services to support IT systems and computing ranging from simple to very complex. The equipment required (servers, routers, switches, firewalls, load balancers, cabinets, software, wiring, etc.) to deliver their services is typically purchased and managed by Miller Waite
Miller Waite are set up for and experienced in, the delivery of hosting solutions with expert support staff available to resolve issues as quickly as possible.
Customers also benefit from the often large network capabilities of Miller Waite as well as the economies of scale of their infrastructure, with costs spread across their client base e.g. backup and storage infrastructures, making it a more affordable option.
Hosting saves an organisation upfront investment and the risk associated of tying up capital into infrastructure. It also offers a flexible and scalable solution to "pay as you grow" and as such, organisations can preserve their cash for more revenue generating activities.
Hosting enables an organistaion to tap into a source of experts 24/7, something which is difficult to replicate in-house without significant investment.

Our secure state-of-the-art Data Centres are in two different physical locations. They benefit from:
- Highly effective secure facilities
- Latest server and infrastructure technology
- Redundant connectivity between data centres
- Staffed by skilled technicians
- Having two sites allows us to provide literally bomb-proof disaster resilient systems.
Tax efficient - simple single monthly payments with the ability to claim 100% of payments against profits compared with outright purchase which allows you to only claim back 25% of the depreciating balance per year which can reduce your company tax bill.
No upfront capital expenditure means you have the added benefit of leaving working capital in the company.
Reduced risk from hazards - (fire, flood, theft etc) - since we host the equipment your risks of any loss or damage are eliminated.
ISO27001* - being highly accredited we operate to very high standards. Our skilled technicians make physical daily checks on all equipment including UPS and backup network links.
Should any server develop a serious fault there is no need to worry. All users of that server will be automatically re-routed to our second data centre and continue working normally whilst the faults are rectified.
Within our data centres we also ensure that there is no single point of failure. To do this we double-up on equipment such as routers, switches and firewalls in a mirrored configuration.
*We have recently completed assessment for full acreditation under ISO27001.
Our bespoke server hosting facility caters for every shape and size of organisation, from cost effective entry-level to multiple dedicated server solutions for the mission-critical enterprise.
Intelligent problem detection and transference - if a problem is detected with one of our load balanced servers, it is automatically removed from the cluster until it is working again.
No single point of failure - load balanced servers work smoothly together and if one fails, the others continue normally until the failed equipment is brought back online.
Keep your business online forever!
Our Dedicated Servers are backed by a strong service level agreement to provide you with peace of mind that issues are addressed within defined times.
Not only do we provide top quality hardware and connectivity to minimise any risks of failure, we continually monitor our systems and carry out daily inspections.
We manufacture our own high-quality hardware in order to minimise the risk of failure and reliance on other manufacturers. All of our dedicated servers also use RAID, providing additional resilience against disk failures. We also keep hot-standby equipment on-site so that even in the most catastrophic server failure event can be quickly rectified.
Our network is built using industry-leading hardware with no single point of failure. We have full redundancy: on all servers, ISP connectivity (using multiple ISP suppliers), on all routers, switches, and firewalls. Combined with using two data centres, this has created an extremely secure, reliable and fast platform that allows us to offer very high quality managed hosting.
