HOUSTON, July 1, 2008 The Planet, the worlds largest privately held dedicated hosting company, today announced the addition of Gigabit speed and Virtual Private Network (VPN) services to its virtual private rack solution. These upgrades offer the benefits of enhanced network performance and increased functionality for virtual racks.
The upgrade to 1Gbps network connectivity allows customers to transfer data faster between servers both within their virtual rack environment and to other servers on the Internet. As a result, customers can host higher-scale, more complex environments and offer more bandwidth-intensive services such as streaming media. The cost for Gigabit Network Uplinks is $10 per month per server.
The Planet is also adding VPN services at no additional charge to all customers with dedicated firewalls in their virtual rack environment. This value-added service offers customers remote access to their network and greater security. Customers can choose between site-to-site IPSEC VPN or Cisco AnyConnect VPN for individual end-users.
"We introduced virtual racks to provide a cost-effective, automated solution for large and small complex hosting environments," said Urvish Vashi, The Planets director of product management. "By adding these upgrades, were able to better meet the needs of one of our fastest-growing customer segments."
Virtual rack customers are now able to utilize higher-capacity firewalls and load balancers with these upgrades. These advanced hardware add-ons include the Cisco ASA 5520 and Cisco ASA 5550 firewalls, as well as the powerful Server Iron 4G load balancer.
About Virtual Racks
Virtual racks enhance security, particularly for companies running advanced, high-performance applications that require flexibility in multi-server environments:
Unlimited server-to-server transfer: Multiple servers within the same virtual rack have unlimited connectivity so customers dont pay for bandwidth between servers.
Unlimited server-to-server transfer: Virtual racks allow customers to pool bandwidth across all servers in the environment. The Planet eliminates the guessing game of which server will accumulate overages, only to find others below their limit. Pooled bandwidth allows servers to share the bandwidth included with every server purchased from The Planet.
Unlimited server-to-server transfer: A complete hosting solution for complex environments requires advanced firewalls and load balancers. Virtual racks allow customers to take advantage of these solutions across their multi-server applications.
