GNi, one of the largest managed hosting providers for Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), online games, and Web 2.0 applications in the United States, announced their participation as an exhibitor in the Web 2.0 Expo which runs March 31st – April 3rd in the Moscone West Convention Center in San Francisco. GNi will host a giveaway at the event, for one free month of hosting, to qualified participants who visit their booth.
GNi will highlight its unique managed hosting approach for companies in the Web 2.0 market. Their emphasis will be on how their Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) solution helps reduce capital expenditures, reduce risk and decrease ‘time to market,’ while offering flexibility for rapid upscale and downscale requirements. GNi will also emphasize at the expo that it stands confidently behind its offerings by providing an industry-leading 100% Service Level Agreement.
GNi’s unique model - Pay as You Grow - fits well with the SaaS and Web 2.0 market objectives because it offers a model that provides right-sized infrastructure for companies that want to avoid the high risk of over/under-building a production infrastructure. GNi’s IBM blade server platform allows companies to have an enterprise grade infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of a Do-It-Yourself solution.
“Infrastructure Scalability is no longer a buzzword, but a primary requirement for the survivability of SaaS and Web 2.0 companies”, stated Philip Bouchard, CEO of GNi. “SaaS and Web 2.0 companies need to know that the lifeblood of their product, fast and reliable online delivery, will be handled in the most efficient manner from the first subscriber to the millionth subscriber with the flexibility to scale, upward or downward, as market conditions change.”
The Web 2.0 Expo, showcases the latest Web 2.0 business models, development paradigms and design strategies for the builders of the next-generation Web.
