BOULDER, CO--(Marketwired - September 23, 2014) - SolidFire, ranked as the storage industry's #1 Solid-State Array, today announced that its cloud storage technology is at the core of pioneering VPS cloud hosting provider ServInt's radical new SolidFire Site Performance Guarantee. ServInt's new service level agreement (SLA) guarantees that no customer web site will ever slow down due to the host server not providing 100 percent of the CPU, RAM, disk and IOPS purchased.

"Many hosting providers tout 100 percent uptime, but in this industry, that's simply a minimum service level offering. We're setting a new bar for hosting SLAs with an aggressive service guarantee defined not just by uptime, but also by critical server resources -- specifically RAM, CPU, IOPS and disk space," said ServInt's Chief Operating Officer, Christian Dawson. "If the performance of any customer site running on ServInt SolidFire SSD VPS suffers for longer than five continuous minutes as a result of a shortcoming in the provisioning of any of these four resources, we'll refund that entire month's hosting fee. Thanks to SolidFire's unparalleled Quality of Service (QoS), we can now deliver guaranteed levels of IOPS to our multi-tenant VPS infrastructure -- until now, the one performance-impacting server resource no hosting company has been able to guarantee."

"Servint is one of our favorite hosting partners," said Peter Sena, Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Digital Surgeons. "In a world centered around customer experience where uptime and high availability is paramount, we're thrilled with their expanded offering and dedication to support, and we look forward to a continued relationship with them."

Together, ServInt's SolidFire SSD VPS and the new SolidFire Site Performance Guarantee delivers:

• 100 percent performance and availability of defined levels of RAM, CPU, IOPS and disk space
• A completely new set of system resource utilization graphs depicting exactly how customers' resources are being provisioned and consumed
• The only hosting platform providing 100 percent guaranteed delivery of predictable, pre-defined number of IOPS
• The ability to eliminate 'noisy neighbor' contention, guaranteeing IPOS on a per-package-tier basis
• High data redundancy and fast backup recovery
• Near-instantaneous server migrations
• Fast read/write access speeds
• Industry-leading technology at an affordable price

"ServInt demands the ability to consolidate and automate the management of thousands of workloads, while simultaneously delivering guaranteed levels of performance and capacity. SolidFire is the only all-flash array architected with the ability to meet those needs, but also deliver a scale-out architecture that can respond to changes in workload demand," said SolidFire's Global Service Provider Programs Manager, Stuart Oliver. "Responding to customer demands for application performance and scale is driving the transformation of Service Provider data centers worldwide. ServInt's groundbreaking performance service guarantee marks a significant event that will influence the very definition of service levels -- first for service providers and then for the level of service enterprise IT delivers internally." 

In addition to speed and reliability advantages, ServInt's SolidFire SSD VPS also offers near-instantaneous server upgrades and downgrades, as well as massive data redundancy and extremely rapid site recovery when needed.
