August 30, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Internet service provider Bulletproof Networks (bulletproof.net.au), announced on Wednesday it will launch what it calls Australia's first fully managed dedicated virtualized hosting service later this week. The service is aimed at making it easier for developers and customers to access technology upgrades, manage hardware and deploy new applications.

"This type of service will make it much easier for us, customers and developers because it saves us going constantly backwards and forwards to a data centre installing physical boxes," says Lorenzo Modesto, GM of Bulletproof Networks. "Up until now customers needed a staging environment. The benefit of virtualization technology, specifically for developers, is that we can generate a clone of the production environment and they can then develop it from there."
The Dedicated VM Hosting service runs on enterprise-grade Sun Microsystems hardware and VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3. It starts from $290 a month and is available in two categories: Standard Dedicated VM Hosting and Enterprise Dedicated VM Hosting.
The Standard hosting service provides a fully managed, monitored and secure operating system, enabling users to manage their own Web and application servers. The Enterprise version also offers access to trained engineers, larger storage and memory capacity, as well as troubleshooting and application management.
