Pearl River, New York - (The Hosting News) - May 14, 2008 - EasyCGI web hosting firm, has added two new dedicated Windows VPS plans, each with two terabytes of bandwidth, to its service portfolio.

As a Microsoft partner, Easy CGI is increasing their number of dedicated server plans to five. Their range of plans is now capable of satisfying almost any dedicated hosting need - from those of small businesses, to those of large corporations.

The two new plans, Dedicated X10 and Dedicated X20, offer 100 and 200 gigabytes of disk space, respectively, two and four gigabytes of RAM, and two terabytes of bandwidth per month.

Dan Richfield, President of Easy CGI noted, ”Customers clearly want more server capability such as more disk storage and memory. We’ve always prided ourselves on being flexible about delivering what our customers want.”

Significantly, all of Easy CGI’s dedicated VPS plans guarantee a limited number of virtual servers for each hardware node, something few other hosting services do. By limiting the number of virtualization clients, each client is assured of a greater share of processor time, RAM, and disk space.

Dedicated virtual private servers (VPS) are midway between shared web hosting services and dedicated hosting services. They create multiple, independent virtual servers, each with its own operating system and other software, on a single, partitioned physical server. VPS customers enjoy the benefits of private hosting, but a less cost than having their own dedicated server.

Mr. Richfield continued, ”These range of plans suits almost any company of any size that needs an economical alternative to dedicated hosting. Our plans offer a variety of options, coupled with cutting edge technology.”

Recently, EasyCGI has released its Window Server 2008, making it available to all hosting customers, to allow for flexibility, better performance and greater security, with hosting features designed to save programming time and ehance profitability. Read more of this news »
