Notes
Plans are billed quarterly in advance.
[1] Your first invoice amount will be pro-rated depending on when you start hosting. Thereafter, quarterly billing occurs at the beginning of January, April, July and October each year. All prices are quoted in U.S. Dollars.
[2] Price depends Operating System, disk space, CPU, RAM and how much technical assistance you need to get everything set up.
[3]
For Silver, Gold and Platinum plans, disk space can be unlimited but, for large-disk systems, only Platinum Physical Colo will be cost-effective in the long run.
[4]
Bronze, Silver and Gold: power backup provided by Amazon EC2. Platinum: backup generator included by virtue of using the Sonic.net data center in Santa Rosa, California.
[5] Other databases such as MS SQL, MySQL, Oracle, PostGres, etc, may
be installed and used subject to licensing restrictions.
You are responsible for purchasing database access licenses.
[6] Price depends on whether you order and install the certificate yourself using RDP or require us to do that for you with LetsEncrypt.org. Pricing will be based on a 15-30 minute labor charge.
[7] HREF Tools Corp. offers a 10 percent discount on all hosting
fees
to Firebird Foundation Members.
We can offer you automated daily or weekly ftp-put of a gbak of your data to another hosting service for backup purposes.
[8] For bronze
plans, a daily or weekly gbak of your database will be
scripted. The backup file will be saved in two locations on our LAN and can be optionally uploaded to an off-site
Amazon S3 bucket, which you will be able to access via web browser and/or CloudBerry Explorer (free) on Windows.
[9] Bandwidth speeds at AWS depend on the instance size (i.e. cost). The best guideline we know for predicting EC2 network speed is
