According to the company, Paragon II allows users to access, monitor, configure and reboot multi-platform servers remotely as if they were physically present at the rack.
Paragon II provides keyboard and mouse control of servers through direct out-of-band KVM connections as well as via the Internet. The company said that through the support of both types of connections, users can access servers remotely in order to maximize operations uptime and save on IT costs.
"Since its introduction three years ago, Raritan's Paragon Cat5-based analog solution has been a tremendous success in the market," said Richard DeFabritus, product manager at Raritan Computer. "Paragon's advancements in KVM switch technologies have helped thousands of companies dramatically simplify the management of business-critical data centers, as well as reduce management costs. Now with Paragon II we are offering better performance and return on investment than any out-of-band, enterprise KVM switch in the market."
The higher-port density of Paragon II supports up to 128 servers and devices per appliance.
In conjunction with today's announcement, Raritan also introduced Paragon Manager management and administration software and a new user station with integrated IP access.
Paragon II is designed for corporate data centers, server farms, Web hosting facilities, Internet service providers and software labs.
Retail pricing for Paragon II starts at $3,000.

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.
