HOUSTON, Dec. 20, 2007 – The Planet, the world’s largest privately held dedicated hosting company, today expanded its KVM over IP offering across the entire server fleet and in each of the company’s six world-class data centers.  KVM – keyboard, video and mouse – allows customers to remotely install software, and manage the operating system and complete software stack from the convenience of their offices. 

 

KVM also provides customers the ability to retain complete management and control of their servers at the console level to simplify troubleshooting for their systems.  The Planet uses the Lantronix SecureLinx Spider KVM solution.

 

“Our customers are technically sophisticated, so having unfettered access and control at the console gives them the peace of mind they require when they have critical applications in a hosted model,” said Director of Product Management Urvish Vashi.  “The Planet has established a leadership position in the hosting market, and one of our priorities is to empower customers with the technologies they require.  Previously we provided KVM only to our elite private rack customers.  Today, every customer now has these capabilities, even if they are hosting a single server.”

 

The company also announced KVM pricing of $30 per month.  Through Jan. 31, 2008, the company is reducing setup fees to $50, down from planned set-up pricing of $100.
