June 2, 2005 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Managed hosting provider Hosting.com (hosting.com) announced on Thursday it has been chosen to provide managed hosting services for Donald Trump's latest venture, Trump University (trumpuniversity.com). The new business education company strives to provide lifelong learning programs for business professionals, small business owners, entrepreneurs, investors and other career-focused professionals.
Trump University hosts its Web sites in Hosting.com's Lousiville data center. Hosting.com owns and operates a fully redundant, Cisco-certified data center, with round-the-clock monitoring, security and support.
Hosting.com will provide dedicated Macromedia ColdFusion hosting for all online operations, as well as hardware, connectivity and 24-hour support to Trump University's Web based assets.

"We found what we needed in working with Hosting.com and have been very pleased with its ability to provide around the clock agile support for both the infrastructure and application layers in our solution."
