Leading hosted IT and business communications provider Outsourcery have added a Dedicated Windows 2008 Server solution to their already comprehensive product portfolio.
Providing businesses with a secure, reliable solution for hosting their business websites, applications or databases, the Dedicated Windows 2008 Server from Outsourcery is suitable for any organisation looking for a business class hosting service with maximum performance and complete reliability.
The new Dedicated Windows 2008 Servers will be available as a Standard or Professional product dependent on the individual requirements of each organisation. Both options will have the same functionality and features available with the products being differentiated by the hardware specifications of the physical servers.
The Dedicated Windows 2008 Professional Server will offer an ideal solution to larger organisations who require a higher level of performance, increased redundancy, and increased power and speed in order to cope with the running of several websites or applications or hosting business critical information. The Dedicated Windows 2008 Standard Server is a more suitable solution for smaller organisations who require a more affordable business class system.
With no upfront investment and an ongoing, predictable monthly fee of £155.00 for the entry level product based on a minimum 12 month contract, these new Dedicated Windows Servers provide an ideal solution for many UK businesses. Outsourcery even offers a 99.9% Service Level Agreement with the option to add 24 hour technical support should it be required.
The Dedicated Windows 2008 Server solutions from Outsourcery will be hosted, managed, maintained and supported in their secure data centre facility. As the servers provide a dedicated solution for each individual customer, organisation will have full administrative access to login and manage their server remotely including updating the operating system and software as they wish without having to share the resource with other businesses. A dedicated solution also means that organisations receive better business class performance and increase security, allowing them to deliver a more reliable and faster service to their end users.
In addition, by upgrading the operating system to the Windows Server 2008 Standard or Enterprise edition, customers can take advantage of the powerful inbuilt virtualisation features of Microsoft’s Hyper-V technology, allowing them to divide their server into several ‘virtual’ servers. By doing this, businesses can consolidate multiple on-premise servers into a single Dedicated Windows 2008 Server allowing them to significantly reduce their costs.
Whilst some in-house IT expertise is needed in order to manage a server and the Windows Server 2008 operating system, choosing a Hosted solution through Outsourcery removes the need to purchase in-house servers and the stress associated with finding a data centre in which to host it. The additional costs and worry associated with managing the hardware, power and bandwidth is also removed as all this is taken care of by Outsourcery.
A spokesperson for the business communications provider commented on the new Dedicated Windows Server solution;
“Our Dedicated Windows 2008 Server solutions offer a series of benefits for small to medium sized organisations looking for a hosted IT solution for their websites and IT applications. Firstly, as all our dedicated servers are hosted within our secure data centre our clients benefit from a predictable and affordable monthly fee without the expense of investing in an in-house server solution, improving cash flow and enabling businesses to focus their IT staff on important day to day business activities.
Secondly, we understand that different organisations have different requirements and therefore all of our solutions are scalable. Both products come with the Microsoft Windows Web Server 2008 operating system installed as standard with the option to upgrade to either the Standard or Enterprise Edition if required. This will allow businesses that have two or three servers located on their business premises to consolidate these in to one Dedicated Windows 2008 Server from Outsourcery using the inbuilt Hyper-V virtualisation feature provided. This will save costs on the hardware, power and ongoing maintenance of those three servers while benefiting from the latest high performance HP and Microsoft technology.
Finally, clients are also offered the opportunity to add additional services to their dedicated server including backup services, server monitoring and 24/7 technical support allowing a client to tailor a solution to meet their specific requirements.”
