63.11.12 Web hosting services
This subcategory includes:
- provision of the infrastructure to host a customer's website and related files in a location that provides fast, reliable connection to the Internet, which may be: • limited to storage on a single server, in either shared or dedicated capacity, without the service provider managing or integrating software applications (Software hosted on the server is the client's responsibility and service level guarantees are standardised and limited in scope) • a bundled service package that consists of the hosting and management of the website and related applications
An important characteristic of this service is the promise of a secure and reliable site and Internet connections that can be quickly scaled to accommodate variations in traffic use. Frequently, consulting, customisation and systems integration are part of the package. Applications are frequently e-commerce related and enable on-line storefronts, shopping carts and catalogues with advanced and complex features such as order processing, fulfilment, procurement, invoicing, transaction processing, customer relational management and back-end database and data warehouse integration and migration services.

A common example is office suite software applications).
