SingleHop’s Tandem system was launched on February 10th and has revolutionized the way that servers are resold by solving some of the reseller business’ toughest issues: Lack of control, limited economies of scale, and marketing and R&D budget constraints. As part of the webhosts focus on providing dedicated server resellers with more control they released the end-user control panel in over 15 languages. All the current functionality and access features of the Tandem Panel will be retained in each of these different language options.

The Tandem Panel is fully customizable with resellers’ logo, brand, colors and image, includes a fully-featured help desk with advanced ticketing functions, enables remote reboot and support, supplies server and bandwidth usage information, and is available as a mobile and webtop application. SingleHop is not offering support in these fifteen languages, only the end-user control panel.

“We’re offering the Tandem control panel in these 15 languages because we’re truly committed to fulfilling the Tandem principle of helping our clients’ have more control and sell more servers,’” says SingleHop VP of Sales and Marketing Dan Ushman. “This will enable our reseller clients to better serve and access both new and existing markets. We understand that having this type of control and flexibility has a direct impact on sales and profit, and the Tandem reseller program was designed from the beginning to maximize that control and flexibility—and thus, maximize profits.”

Dan added, “We’re also open to working with clients in translating Tandem to additional languages as needed. Here at SingleHop, and especially with the Tandem program, we believe that we are your partners and allies in growing and effectively managing your business, finding the right tools for your webhosting needs, and achieving your sales goals. If there is something more that we can do to help make that happen, we want to know about it.”

.CO is a new domain extension that gives businesses and individuals more choice in branding their online presence with a truly global, recognizable and credible domain name. A .CO domain is an excellent alternative domain extension to .COM, .NET or .BIZ. Recognized universally as the abbreviation for “company”, .CO is the ideal domain to extend any brand’s online presence.

Clint Page, Dotster CEO, said, “.CO domains will go fast. With much of the .COM inventory already taken, I see .CO as a way for new businesses to establish themselves, and for existing businesses to both protect and expand their brands.”
 
The phases of the .CO launch include:
Phase 1, Local Sunrise – Colombian Trademarks: April 1st – 20th. Applicants must hold a trademark registered by the Colombian Trademark Office on or before July 30, 2008

By adding the second facility, M5 Hosting is able to introduce a variety of important new services, including off-site data backup and multi-location redundancy for dedicated server customers. The company also is nearing capacity at its existing facility, and needs significant additional rack space to continue its robust growth in 2010. M5 Hosting has grown by 100% or more each year since its founding in 2001.

“Many of our fast-growing customers are asking for services that require multiple facilities, such as off-site backups, multi-site redundancy, disaster recovery sites, and more. We also need additional space to keep growing at our current rate and to keep delivering the sort of customer-focused flexible services we have been delivering for 9 years now,” said Michael J. McCafferty, principal of M5 Hosting.

The new facility is an 80,000 square-foot purpose-built data center located in the San Diego Spectrum area of San Diego, California. Originally built to support a large defense contractor and its government contracts, the facility has recently been updated with the latest in highly-efficient power and cooling systems. The data center is a SAS 70 Type II compliant facility that features an impressive 12+ Megawatts of power, N+1 or 2N redundancy on all data center systems and security protocols required by leading businesses in the most stringent verticals. The facility is owned by American Internet Services, the largest data center provider in San Diego.

M5 Hosting will maintain a dedicated high-speed data connection between its two facilities, which can be quickly scaled to 10Gbps or more to accommodate higher bandwidth needs if required. New customers will be able to select their preferred data center when ordering their dedicated servers. M5 Hosting’s existing data center is located approximately 10 miles from the new facility at 9725 Scranton Road, San Diego, in the San Diego Tech Center. The San Diego Tech Center location is also owned and operated by American Internet Services.

All services are available at both facilities, including KVM over IP, switched power outlets for Web-based reboots, private VLANs, Virtual Rack, dedicated firewalls, bandwidth a la carte, colocation, remote hands, and others. Load-balancing, which is currently available at the San Diego Tech Center location, will also be available at the new Lightwave location. Additionally, premium professional services and all server models are also available at both facilities.

This is the first time Hosting Controller has activated dedicated SSL (a unique SSL Certificate for use on a unique website) within its control panel. The new solution allows HC customers to simply create a GlobalSign product plan and pricing model, which becomes immediately available to their resellers and customers via the control panel. This is the first fully automated application and installation solution to be made available via control panel software. Offering a simplified SSL selling and activation process, Hosting Controller’s HC8 webhosting panel will assist web hosting companies who wish to adopt SSL Certificates into their product portfolios as a value added product.  
Since the launch of HC in 1999, Hosting Controller has offered its web hosting customers a complete automated solution, enabling them to experience infinite hosting possibilities in cluster environments, whilst lowering operational costs. The control panel remains fully automated with the introduction of dedicated SSL, right through to the fully integrated end-customer billing process. The whole process is simplified and hosting companies will no longer be required to handle customer enquiries regarding creation or use of Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs) during the application process.

Hosting Controller already partners with numerous technology organisations enabling them to deliver the most advanced and high performance solutions to clients. With more and more hosting companies integrating GlobalSign SSL Certificates into their product portfolios, partnering with GlobalSign to offer an automated SSL reselling solution was an ideal strategic business opportunity.

“Including dedicated SSL within our control panel is a new feature for Hosting Controller and we believe our newly formed partnership with GlobalSign will add value to the services we currently offer our clients,” said Babar Zaman, VP Business Development, Hosting Controller. “As more hosting companies choose to resell SSL Certificates we are happy to offer the industry’s only fully automated SSL provisioning, and we look forward to offering GlobalSign’s wide SSL Certificate product range within our existing solutions.”

“Integrating our SSL Certificate application and delivery platform within Hosting Controller’s control panel will provide partners with immediate revenue generating and cost reducing benefits, making the whole SSL reselling opportunity even more appealing”, said Steve Roylance, Director of Business Development, GlobalSign. “The advanced technology makes the application, installation and management of SSL Certificates effortless, on the whole allowing an increasing number of hosting companies to respond to their client’s individual SSL requirements.”

All GlobalSign SSL Certificates are issued from GlobalSign’s widely distributed 2048 bit Root CA Certificate and will allow Hosting Controller end customers to easily obtain, install, and activate SSL security to secure their ecommerce websites, logins, servers, and other next generation services.

Got Web Host’s Director of Marketing, Tanya Martin, said of the new offerings, “Got Web Host is excited to be able to offer these new server hosting plans at competitive rates. We have been providing dedicated servers for several years, but our pricing was not exactly competitive. These new dedicated server hosting plans have changed that. With dual core processor servers beginning at $99, no one can argue that our pricing is no longer competitive.”
 
Lloyd Brown, Director of Business Development for Got Web Host, added, “Got Web Host has long had a reputation for quality service, and we feel these new options will serve to enhance this reputation. We are using Enterprise drives which are specifically rated for 24/7/365 use with a mean time between failure (MTBF) of 1.2 million hours. This is almost double what a standard drive offers.”

All of these new servers come standard with the DirectAdmin control panel at no additional charge. If you opt for no control panel that can be provided, and cPanel is available for a small additional monthly fee. Free software RAID is offered on all plans and hardware RAID 1, 5 and 10 are available on many of these new dedicated servers. These servers all come with a 100 Mbps uplink, with an upgrade to 1000 Mbps available.

Remote reboots and IPKVM are available on request. While these dedicated servers are unmanaged, Got Web Host will always be there to assist you to the best of their ability. If managed services are required, a custom quote will be provided. As always, Got Web Host support is free.

“We are seeing businesses get harsh treatment from the elements recently, and in that situation you want to be 100% sure your business can survive the most devastating conditions,” says Michael Trunkett, President at Colocation America. “With protected colocation servers storing a company’s essential data, you can stay on your feet and serve customers as usual, without interruption from natural disasters or conditions that could cause catastrophic failure.”

Businesses of all sizes need redundant emergency protection to safeguard financial information, employee information, data on projects in progress, sales and distribution information, and customer databases. Losing this data can set a company back for months or years, or it may not recover. Colocation America provides redundant emergency protection systems at all times as part of their colocation hosting services and dedicated hosting services.

“Without accurate customer information, the business-customer relationship erodes and companies can lose their competitive advantage,” says Trunkett. “In this economic environment that could be fatal, so our data centers secure our customers’ data with the highest level of both physical and virtual protection.”

Colocation America colocation facilities have a comprehensive suite of monitoring systems in place. Manned ground floor operation centers actively monitor security, fire protection, climate control and power systems. Monitoring of climate examines chillers, essential airflows, temperature, humidity and other environmental conditions. Individual customer power consumption is maintained with UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) systems and backup generators.

“Highly trained technicians and engineers monitor our data centers around the clock, 24-7-365,” says Trunkett. “If a malicious threat occurs, or any change in environmental conditions, our specialized pre-action mechanisms kick in to prevent damage before it can occur.”

Colocation America provides clients with a secure data center environment that ensures their critical systems and the data they contain are protected under a range of conditions. Colocation and dedicated hosting customers interested in protecting their business data are encouraged to visit the Colocation America website at www.ColocationAmerica.com for more information on Colocation America’s emergency systems.

Recognising the increasing demand from law firms for an ‘outcome based’ approach to the outsourcing of legal support systems and processes, the team at UNIFIED identified Relativity from kCura as an industrial strength review platform. The combination of UNIFIED’s robust project management and technical expertise and kCura’s proven technology ensures the delivery of an extremely powerful and effective capability for e-disclosure/discovery processing, review and production.

For UNIFIED’s clients, this mitigates the risk of outsourcing the e-discovery and disclosure process as they can access the highest quality of skills, technology and expertise from a single provider.

“In these challenging economic times we recognise that efficiency and financial sustainability are currently at the centre of the legal industry,” comments Paul Mankoo, CEO of UNIFIED. “In addition, the e-discovery/disclosure market is very noisy, and as such, law firms are faced with a myriad of options when assessing the most effective outsourcing model for their business; our mission at UNIFIED is to cut through that noise and focus on flexibility without sacrificing on quality.”

Noel Kilby, COO of UNIFIED continues, “When assessing the technology platforms available to UNIFIED, quality and scalability was critical.  kCura’s approach and proven technology stood out for us as it clearly drives efficiency into the fundamentals of review, search and production whilst maintaining adaptability.

“We work closely with our clients to provide a bespoke e-discovery/disclosure model that directly meets their needs, underpinned by an ethos of cost management. Relativity’s flexibility helps us meet that objective with the option of extending our analytics capabilities as and when needed.”

“We are excited to welcome UNIFIED to the Relativity family,” said Andrew Sieja, president and CEO of kCura. “I look forward to seeing how they bring their project management and technical expertise to Relativity to provide exceptional solutions for their clients.”

SingleHop’s Cascade program is named for a skydiving term, which describes two lines that run together into a single line. Vice President of Communications, Dan Salcedo, commented that “the name of the program is relevant, because our goal here has been to develop a cloud product that integrates exceptionally well with dedicated servers.

“Cascade is the most exciting announcement that we’ve had to date, and we feel is a real game changer to the dedicated server market. Our approach with Cascade is new and we are confident that it will be the answer to what’s been missing from both the cloud computing and dedicated hosting markets.
