Bringing a server down, and then putting the image on another piece of hardware isn't quite what the word "failover" means.

And as for 1and1.com, I hope you don't use perl since it's 5.006 (which was released around 1999). I'd hate to see how old the rest of their stuff is. I've been pretty happy with dreamhost for many years, getting on like 7 years now, but I'm starting to feel the pain of all of this downtime. The last year has been very bad. I've got one colocation site bookmarked for my businesses, and a shared hosting site bookmarked for personal stuff. This summer I would count on at least one major power outage in LA/San Francisco. Before jumping ship I'm going to wait and see how DH fairs. I have to say it surprises me that people expect to run a serious business off of an $8 shared hosting plan.

And I personally have left cheaper, more reliable servers exactly for those features. But very few _personal sites_ would need those, and if reliability's an issue, they're better off going elsewhere. And yes, if business sites need reliability, they're better off going elsewhere too, just as I stated. Btw, we're not all in America, or even Europe ;) @Rob: Of course DH has great features for the price. And I personally have left cheaper, more reliable servers exactly for those features.

As it has been said numerous times, if a business site is that important, you should be looking at Dedicated Servers or Colocation options with a provider. As for the "way too expensive for personal sites"..... where did you get that idea from?? How can €7,95 a month be way to expensive..... thats like 27 cents per day (I´d hate to see what you class as cheap).....

If this were my first week here I'd sure as hell be jumping ship. DreamHost seems to be catering for an interesting niche market, given they're fast becoming too unreliable for business sites, and way too expensive (if not too unreliable) for personal sites.

I briefly tried to set up my five sites on their service, but after confronting the ignorance of their outsourced tech support and other matters, I realized it was the wrong place to go. They supposedly have good uptime, but the rest of the picture is murky. Just want to tell you about that. A week? Couldn't have been that bad here. Besides, the down control panel was preannounced, or didn't you notice that?
