C I Host Adds Free Balancing With Purchase

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — C I Host (www.cihost.com) is offering customers who order two dedicated server packages a free load balancing solution, helping customers increase their site’s availability and saving them approximately $1,950 in the first year alone.

“In this turbulent economic environment, our customers and savvy businesses worldwide are looking for ways to maximize their channels of revenue while reining in costs,” CI Host business development executive director Erin Bullock said in a statement. “Our load balancing promotion helps customers respond to both of these concerns.”

Over the weekend, C I Host’s load balancing solution ensured that Wall Homes’ website stayed online after it was flooded by visitors following the airing of ABC’s Sunday night program, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, in which Wall Homes was the featured builder.

Proper load balancing lets servers handle roughly twice the amount of typical traffic for applications, web services and e-mail. This increase in availability means customer sites stay up even if one server experiences a failure. Service Health Checking detects service performance and re-routes traffic to the other server in the event of failure, preventing downtime.
