OnYourMark, LLC Blog

Reviewing the uptime of our services is something we do on a regular basis here at OnYourMark to ensure that our services are top-notch and performing as expected for clients that depend on them.

Here is one example of the reward for the effort we put into keeping the services our clients depend on available. This is a graph from the server monitoring software we use to notify us of any potential problems and over the last six months, we have had zero downtime on that server.

But what is more important is to ensure that not only the server is up but the services that server provides are up, in this case it is a mail server providing POP3 and IMAP4 services. In the last six months we have achieved almost 99.999% uptime. That means less then five minutes of downtime in a year which translates to less then 26 seconds of downtime a month!

The reason there is any downtime is simple; updates need to be performed to keep the services up-to-date and secure and as such the service needs to be restarted. We work hard at OnYourMark to ensure that the design, production, programming, hosting, and internet marketing tools we provide are always available.

OnYourMark is proud to be a long-time sponsor of Wisconsin Business Owners.

Over two hundred local Wisconsin Business Owners are members.  Two or three dozen or more of us meet for a “Lunch and Learn” held on the last Friday of the month from January thru October and the 1st Friday in December.  Occasionally we enjoy other special sessions.

You do not have to be a business owner to attend, though most attendees own their own firm.  Any and all of our friends from theBubbler.com and our clients’ staffs are welcome.

Our typical Lunch & Learn schedule:

11:15 NETWORKING – Come early to enjoy great conversation and early networking
12 noon – Fish Fry – OR – All-you-can-eat buffet lunch with salad bar, many entrees and sides…excellent!
12:15 – 30-second commercials during lunch
12:30 – dessert

12:40 Speaker with 18 to 24 minute presentation followed by 6 to 12 minutes of questions.
1:15 End – or continue to network. The host and several members generally take the last Friday afternoon of the month off to talk for hours at the Cali’s Lounge bar.
