(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Data center software provider Global DataCenter Management (www.nlyte.com) announced on Monday it is changing its name to nlyte Software.
From now on, all future business activity will be conducted using the new name. There has been no change in the company's management or ownership.
Its EMEA headquarters in London will also reflect the name change, while its legal structure will remain intact.
"Since our inception we have been focused on developing the leading solution for data center planning and performance management," says Jon Temple, president and CEO of nlyte Software. "Our product nlyte, provides the business intelligence needed for data center managers to make enlightened decisions to improve data center efficiency, deploy green IT initiatives and effectively manage this valuable corporate asset. We felt that the name of the company should align with the name of our product and reflect our expanded vision - a greener world, one enlightened data center at a time."
Along with the name change, the company also announced it has secured an $8 million dollar investment from Ruffer, one of the UK's leading providers of discretionary wealth management services.
Nlyte Software says it will use this investment to further expand global operations in order to support its aggressive growth plans.
Founded by data center management professionals in 2003, the company created nlyte, a performance management suite for improving the efficiency and management of data center assets and physical infrastructure.
Last November, the company launched the latest version of its data center management solution, nlyte 5.0.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
