Major updates to the Linux offering include the addition of Ubuntu 14.04

GLOUCESTER, UK: Fasthosts Internet, a leading web hosting provider and cloud computing specialist, has launched their newest, most comprehensive range of dedicated servers to date. Built with developers, designers and agencies in mind, the new range will serve IT managers and network/systems engineers equally well.

Using less power whilst enabling applications to run faster and smoother, the choice of two new operating systems and an updated server control panel- the range offers high performing servers to suit every need.

Developments to the Fasthosts' dedicated server range include the addition of the latest, fourth generation Haswell processors from Intel, offering heightened processing capabilities. The 950 is powered by an Intel i5 processor and is priced from £59.00 per month (PM) +VAT. It offers users 16GB RAM, 2 x 2TB SATA HDD and RAID 1 protection. Building on this, the flagship server of our mid-range models (1060) runs on the even more powerful Intel i7 processor with 2 x 2TB SATA HDD, 2 x 120GB SSD, 32GB RAM and also RAID 1. You can add Plesk 12 for just £14.99pm + VAT with either of these models. Both servers provide up to 10 pc faster performance than the previous Ivybridge generation which is especially noticeable when encoding, gaming, running complex applications and multi-tasking.

Users enjoy multiple options when choosing a dedicated server with Fasthosts, selecting between Linux and Windows operating systems, Plesk 12 or cPanel. Coinciding with the refresh, Plesk 12 for Windows and Linux will also be offered by Fasthosts. Featuring a WordPress toolkit, outbound anti-spam, web application firewall and much more, the control panel offers unbeatable, simple server management.

Major updates to the Linux offering include the addition of Ubuntu 14.04, the newly released long term support version of the Linux operating system. For organisations keen to ensure platform stability, Ubuntu 14.04 will be supported by Canonical for a full five years.
