Web host Myriad Network has unveiled its latest offering in leading-edge web hosting services: virtual dedicated server hosting on Dell’s 9th generation servers, located in the Equinix northern Virginia data center. Immediately available after several weeks of intense testing and almost two years after the company initially launched the Virtuozzo based VDS platform, Myriad Network’s virtual dedicated servers, or VDS, provide users with a level of security, reliability and speed previously unobtainable.

"These are the fastest VDS servers we’ve ever deployed and they represent a significant step forward in ultra-fast operations through our northern Virginia data center," remarks Jeff Petersen, Myriad Network’s CIO. "With this kind of speed, users with virtual dedicated server hosting can achieve almost instantaneous load times for databases, forums, streaming media, e-commerce sites and more. Pretty much, if it runs on a server, our new VDS platform will make it run faster with double the power."

Unlike traditional hosting environments, which group a multitude of individual accounts within a common file directory that shares the same operating system and applications, Myriad Network’s virtual dedicated server hosting platform gives each unique account its own secure container within the northern Virginia data center. This unique container is completely partitioned from other accounts and provides users with up-to-the-minute technology like Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) drives, 4 3.0Ghz Intel Xeon processor cores, 8GB of memory, redundant power supplies and root access.

"Root access means full account customization, unlimited domains, control of quotas and resources and very tight security," says Mr. Petersen. "Plus, our control panels make routine Web administration a breeze. From email administration, adding accounts, creating databases, managing server files, performing backups and more, even new or inexperienced users can perform important server functions on their own with our virtual dedicated server hosting."
