PowerGrid Private Clouds deliver seamless uptime and performance for the largest and most load-intensive DotNetNuke websites in the world. PowerGrid Private Clouds consist of the PowerGrid Server Farm, the PowerGrid Advanced Synchronization Engine, and the PowerGrid Dynamic Traffic Manager which work together to provide automatic scaling, dynamic growth, and failure resistance at every level.

PowerGrid Server Grid
The PowerGrid Server Farm is a hardware-based server farm that provides the storage and processing power for your DotNetNuke website. Your PowerGrid will have private servers that are fully dedicated to your website, and, by using real hardware instead of virtualized servers, the PowerGrid Server Grid delivers superior performance. When your website needs to scale due to either planned growth or an unforeseen traffic spike, Expansion Nodes can be dynamically converted on the fly to either a web node or a SQL node to give your website an extra boost. If you need to scale down, expansion nodes can be released and then returned to the resource pool.

Advanced Synchronization Engine
The PowerGrid Advanced Synchronization Engine coordinates communication and data synchronization between all allocated nodes in the PowerGrid. When a file, configuration, or database is changed, removed, or added, the PowerGrid Advanced Synchronization Engine automatically distributes this change to all other allocated nodes. By maintaining a consistent view of each server, the PowerGrid Advanced Synchronization Engine knows exactly what files need to exist on every server. When an Expansion Node is allocated to a Server Grid, the Advanced Synchronization Engine will automatically replicate all relevant data to the new node.

PowerGrid Dynamic Traffic Manager
The PowerGrid Dynamic Traffic Manager combines real-time monitoring and performance analysis with advanced load balancing techniques. By continuously monitoring every active node in the PowerGrid Server Farm, the PowerGrid Dynamic Traffic Manager automatically chooses the fastest, most-available server for each and every request. If a node goes offline, requests are automatically re-routed to available servers. When new nodes are added to the cloud, the PowerGrid Dynamic Traffic Manager will redistribute the requests to provide the best end-user experience.
