(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Web hosting provider 1&1 announced on Tuesday that it has launched a new line of servers with 32 processor cores. With this release, 1&1 claims it is one of the first large scale web hosts to deliver dedicated servers with this capacity.

The new 1&1 Server XXL 32 Core is equipped with 64 gigabytes of ECC RAM and a RAID 6 system with 2.4 terabytes of usable storage space. It also uses AMD Turbo Core Technology.

According to the press release, the server contains two AMD Opteron-6272 processors with 2.1 GHz clock frequency, which can be upgraded to 3.0 GHz depending on the workload of the 32 processor cores.

The 1&1 Server XXL 32 Core package includes 24/7 support and is available starting at about $630 per month.

“The market trend shows that there is a growing demand for more powerful servers,” Oliver Mauss, CEO 1&1 Internet said in a statement. “We see enormous potential for the applications product area and we want to position ourselves early.”

According to the announcement, the servers can be used for virtualization and cloud computing, and are ideal for resource-hungry projects like databases and systems development.

1&1 says that its high performance server in combination with operating systems like SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, provide many options for technically savvy users.

With the introduction of 1&1 Server XXL 32 Core, 1&1 has enhanced its entire dedicated server portfolio including the addition of the 1&1 Server 4i and the 1&1 XL Server 8i with the latest Intel E3 Xeon processors.

1&1 offers nine different dedicated server packages and all servers can be ordered in Linux, Windows or a managed version.
