Apple XServe and Mac Mini Platforms Provide Secure Managed Hosting

July 11th, 2005 By: Hosting News

Winston-Salem, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–July 11, 2005–SolidSpace, LLC, a leading
provider of dynamic hosting infrastructure and developers of the Silkware suite
of intuitive web-based collaborative technologies, today introduced the availability
of Mac Mini dedicated servers, providing flexible, secure managed hosting and
co-location services. SolidSpace has committed to the Apple XServe and the Mac
Mini platforms to offer powerful and affordable hosting on Apple’s secure UNIX
platform. Through SolidSpace, customers have the advantage of redundant infrastructure
and bandwidth using their own Mac Mini. Clients’ hardware and software are configured
by SolidSpace to meet their individual specific needs and housed in the SolidSpace
datacenter. Customers are empowered to maintain control over every aspect of
the server’s hardware and software while enjoying the advantages of the climate-controlled
environment, firewall security, as well as high-speed Internet connections.

SolidSpace customers also have a choice of two dedicated Mac Mini managed server
packages; Mac Mini Standard, which is ideal for websites and applications that
have outgrown the shared hosting environment or for developers that need more
control over their server. Mac Mini Premium is the perfect solution for complex
websites that demand superior performance and high availability. Other benefits
include:

– Remote Reboot- Customers have the ability to cycle the power using the Remote
Power Management Unit via a web browser.

– Server Monitoring- Verifies that a client’s system is available and reachable
on the network, and sends alerts if it is not.

– LiveStats Statistic Reporting Tool- Far beyond a simple log analyzer, it
interprets web site traffic in real-time and generates ”Live Stats”
reports in an easy to use web interface.

– Daily Backup Service- Clients no longer need to rely on daily backup tape
rotation, followed by delivering them to an offsite location.

– Solid Standby- If for any reason a customer’s Mac Mini needs to be pulled
for service, SolidSpace will provide a similar or more robust unit while the
customer’s server is out of the datacenter.

– Managed Services- Clients enjoy a full suite of support, including Operating
System Troubleshooting and Repair, System Administration Management, Backup
Management and DNS Configuration and Changes.

Plans start as low as $24.95 per month. For further information visit www.solidspace.com.
