(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — IT solutions provider BlackMesh (www.blackmesh.com) announced on Tuesday it has launched its Optimized Drupal Hosting Platform, which is specifically designed to provide “reliable, scalable hosting capabilities” for Drupal-based websites.
The new customizable solution helps Drupal developers improve the performance of their websites, while at the same time enhance and simplify security by automatically synching with daily updates.
The open source content management system continues to grow in popularity among businesses, individuals and government agencies build websites.
“We’ve created our Optimized Drupal Hosting Platform to simplify day-to-day maintenance for Drupal users, providing a solution that addresses many common problems, as well as access to creative experts who can develop innovative resolutions to complex errors,” says Eric Mandel, CEO of BlackMesh. “In addition, our customers have access to our unlimited customer service, as well as the architectural support and scalability necessary to grow their websites.”
In the Optimized Drupal Hosting Platform, BlackMesh applies Drupal Optimizations to the entire LAMP Stack, which includes specific updates to Apache, MySQL and PHP.
BlackMesh also installs all of the supporting non-Drupal applications, such as outgoing mail server, PHP modules, PHP PECL/PEAR and caches.
The Optimized Drupal Hosting Platform service includes implementation and around the clock support for multiple architectures, including single server, dual servers for separated web and database tiers, N Web, N database, load balancer, intelligent distributed “files” directory handling, multi-server databases with failover and SELECT-only servers, and comprehensive MySQL security and login management.
Customers using the Optimized Drupal Hosting Platform will also have access to BlackMesh’s unlimited service plan, which includes 100 percent uptime on the BlackMesh network, dedicated administrators and 24-hour access to personalized support via phone, email or the web.
Another web host that recently began offering support and network services for Drupal is TP1 Internet 360, which partnered with Acquia in April to provide the premium service.
