      I am looking for the Rolls-Royce of hosting companies in the UK who can provide a robust and resilient hosting service for one of our websites that receives over 500,000 visitors a month.

      I am not looking for a cheap deal but a company that can provide the best possible service and uptime guarantees using a multi-server and possibly multi-location hosting solution.

      Can anyone recommend such a company?

      Def RackSpace they can cluster drives in a cage or custom build blades, sort load balancers pretty much anything you need.

      What is your site doing? Do you need PCI compliance?
      Do you need windows? Linux? BSD? Any specific distro?
      MySQL? Oracle? MSSQL? Postgre?
      SLAs?
      How redundant do you want everything?

      Its certainly something we can do and not for the price rackspace charge!
