March 5, 2003 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Next-generation network services company Redundant Networks (Redundant.com) announced on Tuesday that it has opened a new colocation facility located in the Raleigh, North Carolina area, calling the facility the most advanced data center in the Triangle market.
Redundant networks says that, with real-time failover between bi-coastal data centers, the company operates a patent-pending dual site network configuration designed to provide continual uptime and the highest level of physical security.
The Raleigh data center is connected to Redundant Networks' Reno-based facility through multiple optical circuits, including a private point-to-point backbone that will be available in April of 2003 to help customers reduce failover costs. Service-based network operations are tailored to each customer's requirements. The company also offers a range of managed services, including security monitoring, intrusion detection, hardware management and maintenance and network systems services.
"Redundant Networks shopped for more than a year to find just the right space to meet our standards. Utilizing the former Relera space, we made improvements to an already excellent hosting facility," said Janice Fetzer, general manager and chief operating officer of Redundant Networks. "Our load-balancing capabilities combined with an infrastructure that delivers rapid failover afford us an unparalleled response time and give our customers confidence in our network's high availability."

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.
