August 10, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Telecommunications provider AT&T (att.com) announced on Thursday that digital media technologies provider Atlas (atlassolutions.com) has signed an extension with AT&T, which renews and expands Atlas' more than two years relationship with AT&T.

AT&T will provide an enterprise hosting solution for the next two years and will enable Atlas to house its entire suite of hosted application services in three fully redundant, highly available AT&T Internet Data Centers. Atlas will use AT&T's enterprise-hosting, managed services, security services and back-end connectivity to the IDC to allow full visibility and end-to-end management in the delivery of its services and software.

The company decided to invest in outside data centers to house its high-volume, high-availability Web serving infrastructure, entitled "ad-hive clusters", as well as its extensive Web advertising infrastructure. AT&T's high-volume storage capacity will support both applications and will provide Atlas with a premium platform to execute in any environment in which digital advertising or content monetization strategies are employed.

"It's critical for our business that we provide our customers the highest degree of availability, most expansive reach and the greatest delivery speeds available to a global audience," says Greg Meyer, senior vice president of product and technology at Atlas. "Trusting AT&T as our hosting and security services provider allows us to focus on our core business."
