Case Study: Riptide Hosting achieves 100% SLA-backed uptime with Flexential colocation

Redundant colocation services guarantee uptime for a small business hosting company

Riptide Hosting, a Windows hosting provider for small and medium-sized businesses, needed to guarantee continuous availability but didn’t have the resources to build fully redundant infrastructure. To ensure 100% uptime for its customers and avoid weather- or outage-related disruptions, Riptide colocated its servers in Flexential’s Denver–Centennial data center.

Flexential delivered the solution with dual-redundant UPS clusters and generators, N+1 cooling, a 100% SLA, a 100 Gbps scalable network with diverse carriers, advanced security and 24/7 Remote Hands support. The result was enterprise-grade reliability and reduced operational risk—fewer outage-driven support calls, stronger customer confidence and the ability for Riptide to grow its business without heavy upfront investment.
