WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- 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 & Repair, System Administration Management, Backup Management and DNS Configuration & Changes.
Plans start as low as $24.95 per month.
