The Planet Enhances Virtual Private Rack Solution with Gigabit Speed, VPN Services

HOUSTON, July 1, 2008 The Planet, the worlds largest privately held
dedicated hosting company, today announced the addition of Gigabit speed and
Virtual Private Network (VPN) services to its virtual private rack solution.
These upgrades offer the benefits of enhanced network performance and increased
functionality for virtual racks.
The upgrade to 1Gbps network connectivity allows customers to transfer data
faster between servers both within their virtual rack environment and to other
servers on the Internet. As a result, customers can host higher-scale, more
complex environments and offer more bandwidth-intensive services such as
streaming media. The cost for Gigabit Network Uplinks is $10 per month per
server.
The Planet is also adding VPN services at no additional charge to all
customers with dedicated firewalls in their virtual rack environment. This
value-added service offers customers remote access to their network and greater
security. Customers can choose between site-to-site IPSEC VPN or Cisco
AnyConnect VPN for individual end-users.
"We introduced virtual racks to provide a cost-effective, automated solution for
large and small complex hosting environments," said Urvish Vashi, The Planets
director of product management. "By adding these upgrades, were able to better
meet the needs of one of our fastest-growing customer segments."
Virtual rack customers are now able to utilize higher-capacity firewalls and
load balancers with these upgrades. These advanced hardware add-ons include the
Cisco ASA 5520 and Cisco ASA 5550 firewalls, as well as the powerful Server Iron
4G load balancer.
