Tags:
application servers

Overview Customers continually expect more from their Web hosting providers. Web 2.0 services and the proliferation of Web services are constantly pushing the boundaries of technology. So for customers with high expectations, STRATO AG is now offering dedicated servers in its two professional computer centers. The Berlin-based IT company has taken into account aspects such as security, performance, and availability as well as energy consumption. Now STRATO is the world's first Web hosting provider to make the Windows Server 2008 operating system available. STRATO offered Windows Server 2008 even before it was released to manufacturing because the company was one of the first to test the new Microsoft operating system - with very positive results.
