Information on Hosting with TFCS

Hosting with TFCS places your website in a data centre in Sydney, right on the east coast Internet backbone. We only use Australia-based servers, and where possible support Australian owned companies.

The Limitless Inclusions

Unlimited Bandwidth - The hosting servers are connected to a fully redundant DDoS protected network, powered by Brocade and Extreme Networks appliances. With local connectivity over the 40 gigabit mark, there's no need to think about bandwidth.

Unlimited Databases (MariaDB) - If you're not already familiar with MariaDB, it's a community-developed, commercially supported fork of the Oracle's MySQL relational database management system (RDBMS) - but it's faster and more lightweight. MariaDB is known for providing faster database queries and being compatible with any existing MySQL database.

Unlimited Add-on Domains - Add-on domains allow you to create a completely different website to that of your primary cPanel domain name and display it as the add-on domain without any reference to the primary cPanel domain.

Unlimited Subdomains - Similarly to the add-on domains, the number of sub-domains set up on a single web hosting service is also unlimited.

Unlimited Parked Domains - A parked domain is a domain that shows the same website as your primary cPanel domain name, essentially "parking" it on top of your existing website.

Unlimited FTP Accounts - The number of FTP Accounts that may be set up with your web hosting account is also not limited.2

The Good Stuff

Uptime Guarantee - 99.99%.

Storage Type - High-Speed SSD Storage.

Fortinet Hardware Firewall - The datacenter service provider has partnered with Fortinet; the world's leading provider of hardware firewalls. This offers additional protection from malicious attacks, such as DDoS and similar attacks.

Up to 50MB/sec Disk I/O Speed - This higher disk I/O speed helps prevent disk access bottlenecks while delivering mutiple concurrent websites. (Based on 100 GB storage, 15 GB and down see 8GB/sec)

AutoSSL SSL Certificates - cPanel's AutoSSL service allows us to set up a Free SSL Certificate on your web hosting services. Certificates are issued by Sectigo (formerly known as Comodo.)

Hourly Backups - All client data is backed up by Acronis Cloud Backup, and will be available to restore at any time. More information

The Inevitable Limitations

Inode Limit: 300,000 - The number of individual files that can be stored within any single web hosting service is 300,000. This limit is enforced for two reasons:

  1. To ensure that there are no issues with the scheduled backups; and
  2. To ensure your web hosting service performs optimally.

Email-out Limit Per Hour of 1000 emails - All web hosting service accounts may send up to 1,000 emails per hour without any issues. If you need to send more emails, talk to us about our bulk email sending service

Backup Schedule

Automated backups are achieved through Acronis Backup and is a full backup of the entire hosting account. The backups schedule is:

  • 24x hourly backups
  • 7x daily backups
  • 5x weekly backups
  • 2x monthly backups

These are rolling backups. At the time that the quantity of each type of backup is exceeded, the oldest one is delete and replaced by the newest one of that type. (In other words, at hour 24 the oldest hourly backup is removed at the same time as the newest backup is created.)
