Hosting and Uptime

With a world-class content delivery network, backed by a fully redundant system, YUDU deals with the hosting for you, ensuring your content is always available.

If you choose YUDU to host your editions, we automatically make them available via the Limelight content delivery network, using load-balanced origin servers with no single point of failure in either your edition hosting or the cloud publishing platform in general.

What this means in effect is that if any part of the system fails, the system is designed to be able to recover either automatically, or using documented processes to restore service in a few minutes – it's best practice for the industry, and whilst expensive, it's the only way to run a professional service for the publishing industry.

We aim for uptime for your editions to be as close as possible to 100%, year round. With continual upgrades to the system as necessary, we avoid any downtime to editions where possible – and, on the very rare occasions when we can't, the work is done when the least number of people are viewing (pre 8am GMT, generally).
