Blacknight Solutions of Ireland Deploys Parallels Software to Launch Virtual Private Servers
June 6, 2008 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Parallels virtualization and automation software is powering new virtual private server (VPS) offerings from Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd (http://www.blacknightvps.com), a leading provider of web hosting solutions in Ireland.
Blacknight, a Parallels Gold Partner, is offering four VPS service plans for the Linux and Windows platforms. Each level – Starter, Basic, Standard and Enterprise – is managed through Parallels System Automation and Parallels Virtuozzo Containers and are currently available at http://www.blacknightvps.com/
The new Blacknight VPS offerings are provisioned and managed through Parallels Virtuozzo Containers operating system (OS) virtualization software and Parallels Automation datacenter solution. Parallels Virtuozzo Containers enables Blacknight to simultaneously run multiple execution environments called "containers" on a single physical server and a single OS.

"Parallels Virtuozzo Containers and Parallels Automation are 'best-of-breed' solutions that will give our customers the control and flexibility of a dedicated server at a fraction of the price."
