Looking for Advice and services for scaling re-architecture

Our company is a Theatre ticketing system. Although based in New Zealand, our largest customer-base is in the UK, where our bookings web server has about 1.8m pages views a month.

We have started the process of shifting our single-server architecture web server to the Linode London Data Centre.

When we do this we are looking to change the architecture to a more scalable multi-server architecture, and are looking for (paid) advice and ongoing support to help us do that.

The good folk at Linode Management have said that they are not in a position to recommend a person or company to help us to do this, and suggested that the community may have some recommendations.

So does anyone know of a sysadmin or company who you would recommend to help us do this?

Many Thanks

John Caldwell

Founder & CEO

You should also consider making contingency plans such that if there are datacenter-wide problems in London, you can fail over to another Linode datacenter. Temporarily serving your traffic from Newark won't be as fast, but during a failure it's better than rejecting customer orders.
