After an exhaustive search, Fat Jack Hosting reached a virtualization deal with SWsoft, allowing the Web hosting company and its customers to save money

Aug. 29, 2007 - (TopHosts News Brief) - Fat Jack Hosting announced the deployment of SwSoft virtualization technology.

The company reports that it wanted to evaluate all options before deciding on a new virtualization solution. The investigation process led them to SwSoft, a global leader in virtualization and automation software. Its product line includes Virtuozzo, the state of the art operating system virtualization solution.

Fat Jack Hosing concluded that SWsoft’s suite of virtualization products exceeded their former virtualization provider, VMWare.

“When dealing with SWsoft, we experienced none of the product issues we encountered with other virtualization providers,” Fat Jack Hosting manager Ralph Smith said in a PRWeb release. “There was no pressure to purchase expensive partner hardware and SANS arrays, when what we already had in place was more than adequate. There was also no contending with promising but not enterprise-ready virtualization software like Xen. Like us, SWsoft had already proven itself a leader in the industry. The choice, therefore, was obvious.”

Fat Jack says the greatest advantage of the SWsoft alliance is that the technology can be deployed at about 25 per cent of VMWare’s deployment cost. As a result, those savings can be passed on to Fat Jack Hosting’s clients.

Built from the ground up, Fat Jack’s Virtualization 2007 minimizes outage issues, under loads its Web servers by 30 percent and employs its own team of virtualization specialists.
