San Francisco, California - (The Hosting News) - February 8, 2007 - Dedicated server provider and hosting specialist, ServePath, will provide hosting, colocation and consulting services, to Joie de Vivre Hospitality, a boutique hotel company in California.

According to the company, ServePath was chosen based on the company's ability to architect and deliver a scalable and secure managed colocation solution to capture day-to-day accounting data, critical to operating its more than 30 locations.

Joie de Vivre Hospitality, based in San Francisco, currently operates 30 hotels and eight restaurants. The company was looking for a highly customized solution to address its complex requirements, which included building a robust, scalable architecture that would serve as a stable foundation for integrating each of its hotels and restaurants into a centrally controlled and secure environment. Besides providing state-of-the art collocation and network services, ServePath implemented a redundant failover network and architecture. This included integrating its network connection at ServePath with the company's virtual private network (VPN), which is distributed to each hotel and restaurant location. ServePath's solution also provides security for Joie de Vivre Hospitality's data as well as its physical equipment, which is located in ServePath's world class, San Francisco data center.

Michael Stano, Director of IT at Joie de Vivre Hospitality offered, "Joie de Vivre Hospitality talked to a number of hosting providers about our need for a hands-on vendor who could supply all the services we need and incorporate them in one managed solution. ServePath won out over some large competitors based on its ability to put together a unique, multifaceted solution. In addition to providing hosting, colocation and specialized applications for us, they're also serving as the project manager. We don't have to worry about any of the details, because ServePath is handling the entire project, while keeping our budgetary concerns in mind."
