Dear WhiteKnight thanks for your quotation request
I have a few questions regarding your requirements.
With regards to unmetered bandwidth, this occurs when you buy data on a mbit scale where you by data at the pipe size not the usage size. Do you require 10mbit ? 50mbits 100mbits or 1000mbits ? without this very important information it’s very hard to provide pricing. Although regardless of your data requirements Micron21 most certainly can provide a solution to totally meet your clients needs.
As for the 5 required servers what specifications do you require on each machine? Are they database servers, file hosting servers or just straight web servers, the reason I ask server specifications can affect performance greatly and also cost. Things to consider with sever specifications is processor speed i.e. dual core or quad core and physical mhz of the processor, also the amount disk space if you require if you need hardware raid, the and the amount of memory. Useful options to consider are remote across cards for KVM like features over IP and the ability to turn off / off / reboot servers.
Do you want name band servers ? ie Dell, HP, Sun with hardware warranty or do you want cheap white boxes DIY homemade servers ?
Have you also considered adding a firewall to your enterprise to protect your data and servers. Micron21 can offer you a Juniper firewall with a VPN termination. For more information on our fully managed firewall services please visit

With regards to a full back solution this again depends on the amount of data. If your data requirements are large you might consider 2 SAN’s in geographically separated locations this would provide you with redundancy in real time. This would minimize down time, in fact if the client requires mission critical services Micron21 can provide dedicated bandwidths between physical diverse locations for you. Coupled with this service could be hardware load balance servers to insure maximum mission critical uptimes.
