Avantex Hosting announced earlier this morning the successful launch of its Enterprise Cloud Solutions, Cloud
Computing Apps, Cloud Replication, Cloud DNS, Cloud Load Balancing and Cloud Backup Services to the enterprise
segment of the IT industry.
"Avantex has been hard at work over the past year-and-a-half in delivering our Enterprise Cloud Solutions on
time," says Jim Taylor, Avantex Hosting's founder and Chief Executive Officer.
"Since December 2009, our Cisco networking engineers, our Linux system admins and Windows support technicians
have been busy designing, building, integrating and testing a complex portfolio of enterprise Cloud Services that
will ensure 100 percent availability for mission-critical applications that deliver Cloud-based services to Fortune
500 corporations, medium-sized companies, as well as small businesses where downtime isn't an option," said Taylor.
Taylor offered High Tech News Today a detailed analyzis of what Avantex's Enterprise Cloud Solutions consist of:
Cloud Computing Apps -- Avantex's Cloud Computing Apps were designed specifically for business people on
the go. Consisting of mobile apps running on Apple's iPhone, the iPad and Research In Motion's BlackBerry smartphones
and the PlayBook, these Cloud Computing Apps include secure email service, calendering apps, texting and Instant
Messaging services with 100 percent availability, 24/7/365.
Cloud Replication -- Avantex's Cloud Replication Services (CRS) ensure enterprises of a full disaster
recovery (DR) solution between two data centers separated by 100 miles in between. CRS is totally transparent and
makes full use of Avantex automated NOC (network operations center) and DR services.
Cloud DNS -- For large and medium-size businesses that require a fail safe and fuly redundant DNS solution,
Avantex's Cloud DNS Service will provide full DNS record replication on all email services, site hosting, enterprise
application services, first-level name server resolution and host authoritative services at all times, regardless of
any incident.
Cloud Load Balancing -- As the name implies, Avantex's Cloud Load Balancing Services will ensure full
load balancing on any busy corporate website or eCommerce store front. Avantex's Cloud Load Balancing Services are
also available for busy mail servers and Microsoft Exchange Servers, utilizing fully redundant email servers that
provide security, reliability and high-availability at all times.
Cloud Backup Services -- For any size business that cannot afford to lose any data, Avantex's Cloud
Backup Services will ensure that all information on servers is kept backed up at all times. Available hourly,
daily, weekly or monthly, Avantex's Cloud Backup Services run on complex SAN (storage area networks) that feature
Raid 5 and Raid 10 disk arrays on reliable IBM, HP and Dell servers.
Avantex successfully participates in World IPv6 Day
Last week, Avantex Hosting reported that it successfully completed the testing on the IPv6 protocol on
World IPv6 day, June 8, 2011. As early as February 2009, Avantex took the lead and started implementing its
networking equipment for the new protocol.
World IPv6 Day was an event sponsored and organized by the Internet Society and several large hosting companies
and content providers to test public IPv6 deployment on the Internet. It started at 00:00 UTC on June 8 and ended ar
23:59 the same day.
Avantex says that the key motivation for the event was to evaluate the real world effects of the IPv6 protocol as
seen by various networking equipment and according to the various tests performed. To that end, during World IPv6
Day major Internet companies and other industry players enabled IPv6 on their main websites for 24 hours.
An additional goal was to motivate organizations across the industry such as Internet service providers,
hardware makers, software engineering firms, operating system vendors and web companies to prepare their services
for IPv6, in assuring a successful transition from IPv4 as IP address space is rapidly running out.
