August 28, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Data protection products provider R1Soft (r1soft.com) announced on Tuesday that its continuous data protection server now supports ReiserFS, a journaling file system and leading alternative to the standard Linux extended file system, known as ext2 or ext3.
The company's CDP server has previously introduced support for a few different Linux distributions running on the Linux 2.4 kernel or higher. Specifically supported distributions include Fedora Core, Debian Linux, CentOS Linux, OpenVZ, RedHat Enterprise, Virtuozzo, Ubuntu and custom built vanilla or patched Linux 2.6 kernels. A beta Windows agent of the CDP Server is also available, says the company.
"ReiserFS has been the historical default file system for Linux distributions like Novell SuSE, OpenSuSE, and Gentoo. By introducing support for ReiserFS, our software can be used on a significantly larger portion of Linux server deployments," says David Wartell, R1Soft founder and CEO. "Many of our customers have been waiting for this important next step, and I am glad the waiting is finally over."
R1Soft says it also plans to introduce official support for Novell Suse and OpenSuse in the near future.
R1soft recently showcased its newly released MySQL backup products at LinuxWorld Conference and Expo, the largest event that focuses exclusively on Linux and open source software.

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.
