Hostway: Hosting for the Next Billion Users
Hostway handles growth with Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 and 7500 series
Industry analysts expect 1 billion new people online by 2015—a trend that creates dramatic growth opportunities for companies like Hostway Corporation. A global leader in application hosting and infrastructure, Hostway reduces the complexity and cost of Web-based technologies for small businesses and large enterprises—including those who will provide services for the next billion Internet users. Hostway standardizes on Intel® server technologies and says Intel® Xeon® processors 5600 and 7500 series help the company stay ahead of rising demand and thrive in a dynamic market segment.
CHALLENGE
• World-class infrastructure. As an infrastructure and services provider, Hostway needs a flexible environment of efficient, high-performance platforms to host its customers’ workloads, support new cloud services, and run its own business.
SOLUTION
• Intel® server technologies. Hostway chooses Dell PowerEdge* R-series servers with Intel Xeon processors 5600 and 7500 series. The company uses value-added solutions such as Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) to optimize its data center and support its latest cloud offering, FlexCloud* Server dynamic cloud hosting platform.
Impact:
• Cost-saving density. Hostway runs as many as 40 virtual machines (VMs) on a single Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 series-based server, over 20 percent more than on previous-generation servers. Supporting more customers with fewer servers helps Hostway handle rapid growth and offer innovations such as the Automatic Price Protection* model on its FlexCloud Servers.
• Robust, responsive environment. Using a range of Intel® platforms, Hostway serves small, medium, and large businesses while maintaining a consistent, flexible, and manageable environment. Knowing Hostway’s solutions have “Intel inside” gives customers increased confidence and helps the company gain business.
