Failover Hosting in Times of Crisis – Our Commitment to Clients in Israel

by | Jun 16, 2025 | News, Crisis Response, Web Hosting, WordPress

WordPress hosting in Israel has never been more critical.

It’s been a difficult weekend, to say the least. With the escalation of conflict in Israel, many of our clients hosting in our Tel Aviv data center have reached out with a simple but urgent question:

“Is my website going to stay online?”

The answer is yes. We’re already on it.

We have long-standing WordPress hosting infrastructure in Tel Aviv, supported by a fully managed stack and continuous uptime monitoring through UptimeVision. But in times like these, that’s not always enough. That’s why we’re always prepared for what comes next.

We built Glimmernet’s infrastructure with resilience in mind so that even in moments of uncertainty, your business stays visible, your message gets heard, and your website keeps working.

What Happens If Tel Aviv Goes Down?

If connectivity, power, or physical security at our Tel Aviv data center is disrupted, your website will fail over to an alternate region. That might be a European location like Frankfurt or Amsterdam, or another global node based on what’s closest and most performant for your visitors.

This failover process is designed to be automatic and seamless keeping your site live, no matter what.

Free Emergency Failover for Tel Aviv Clients

Normally, failover architecture like this is a premium feature. But when you have far more important things to worry about, we’re offering it at no cost.

No emails. No upgrade requests. Just continuity.
Why wouldn’t we?

Every site hosted in Tel Aviv is eligible for free failover to another region – whether in Europe, Africa, or wherever makes the most sense for your audience. We’ll spin up an active replica of your site, sync it regularly, and switch traffic over if Tel Aviv becomes unreachable.

There’s no ticket to open. No red tape. We already have your back—and we’ll take care of it automatically.

Global Redundancy Across All Regions

‘This isn’t just about Israel. Glimmernet’s hosting infrastructure is globally distributed, and failover is available across all our data centers—from North America to South America, Europe to Asia Pacific, and Africa.

We can fail over between cities within a region, or even across multiple regions, giving you peace of mind that your site isn’t tied to a single server, city, or point of failure.

Whether you’re using our WordPress hosting in Israel or another region, we’re here to help you plan for resilience before a crisis hits.

If you’re hosted elsewhere and want to explore business continuity options before a crisis hits, contact us. We’ll help you build a plan that fits your needs.

Our Commitment to WordPress Hosting in Israel

We don’t just give you a server and wish you luck. Glimmernet manages the full stack including hardware, software, network, and support with your success in mind.

Here’s what that includes:

  • 24/7 UptimeVision monitoring
  • WordPress-optimized firewalls and WAFs
  • DDoS protection
  • Regional geo-blocking and brute-force hardening
  • On-call support when things get scary
  • Hosting infrastructure we manage and control (not rented from a faceless reseller)

We manage our own environments on trusted IaaS providers. Neither the data center operators nor any third-party vendors have access to your data.

Only you and our trusted team can see it.

This Isn’t Our First Time

Unfortunately, we’ve done this before.  During the early days of the Ukraine invasion, we extended free hosting and failover support to .UA sites under threat from state-sponsored hacking.

It wasn’t about policy. It was about doing the right thing in the middle of chaos – and making sure information stayed online when people needed it most.

Hosting with a Human Touch

This is what good hosting looks like—even when things get hard.

We’ll continue monitoring the situation in Israel and ensure your websites stay online, safe, and accessible. You don’t need to open a support ticket; just know we’re already watching. But if something doesn’t feel right, reach out to support@glimmernet.com anytime.

We’re proud to stand behind our clients, no matter what happens next but most of all we’re praying for the safety of everyone and for a quick resolution to this international crisis.
