Infrastructure

Built for mission-critical workloads

Isolation, redundancy and proactive operations for payments and bank validation

Separate endpoints

Traffic routes through endpoints isolated from standard service load.

  • Private domain endpoints
  • Dedicated IP addresses
  • Priority routing
  • Zero shared contention

Multi-region redundancy

Deployed across multiple UK regions with automatic health-based failover.

  • UK primary datacentre
  • UK secondary datacentre
  • Automatic health checks
  • Sub-second failover

Proactive monitoring

Continuous checks with instant ops alerts to resolve issues early.

  • 1-minute health checks
  • Performance monitoring
  • Automated alerts
  • Predictive analytics
Redundancy

Additional failover DNS endpoint

Triple-layer protection for absolute mission-critical resilience

Backup DNS endpoint provided

Alongside automatic multi-region failover, you receive a separate backup DNS endpoint for manual switchover if both primary and automatic failover paths fail - an extremely rare last-resort control.

1
Primary endpoint

Main API path with built-in automatic failover between UK datacentres.

2
Automatic failover

If the primary path fails, traffic routes to the secondary path in sub-seconds.

3
Backup DNS endpoint

Manual switchover endpoint for the improbable dual-failure scenario.

When would you use the backup endpoint?

Only if both the primary endpoint and automatic failover fail simultaneously. Our monitoring team notifies you immediately if that scenario ever occurs.

Implementation

  • Provided at setup - backup DNS details included in onboarding docs
  • Pre-configure - add the backup endpoint to config for quick switching
  • Switch method - update DNS/config (typically minutes)
  • 24/7 support - team can guide switchover if ever required
Triple-layer protection

Primary endpoint → automatic failover → manual backup endpoint = 100% uptime guarantee.
