October 1, 2008 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Web host Layered Technologies (http://www.layeredtech.com) has upgraded its network to enhance services and expand virtualization offerings, it was reported yesterday. The company, which bills itself as a “leading worldwide provider of on-demand IT infrastructure”, suggests the upgrades increase its capacity “to handle complex requirements of enterprise-class customers for traditional and virtualization platforms, while simultaneously positioning Layered Tech to effectively manage its rapid growth”.
The company has expanded the number of carriers it uses so customers now have a “superior blend of Internet pathways” - Level 3 Communications, Global Crossing and Sprint enable overseas Internet access, and SAVVIS, Internap and Time Warner provide US Internet access. The company has also enhanced access between its data centers with 10-gigabit circuits, while hardware upgrades include new Cisco switches in VSS configuration.
”Our rapidly expanding customer base is fueling Layered Tech’s network investments whose benefits are particularly attractive to enterprise customers looking for advanced virtualization technologies,” explained Layered Tech’s CEO, Jack Finlayson. “The network upgrade has been a major initiative since our acquisition of FastServers.Net earlier this year. We will continue to evolve our network to meet our customers’ needs, but we already know that Layered Tech offers the services, capacity, security and redundancy that other data centers and dedicated hosting providers just can’t match.”
Layered Technologies is a managed dedicated hosting provider offering on-demand virtualization/grid computing and web services. The company “powers millions of sites and Internet-enabled applications” including ecommerce, software as a service (SaaS), and content distribution solutions. |
