Interactive Telesis Announces Expansion of Voice Hosting Infrastructure
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 2, 2000--Interactive Telesis(TM) Inc. (OTCBB:TSIS - news), a leading provider of speech-enabled hosting services, today announced the expansion of their voice-hosting infrastructure.
Initial deployment within the data hosting facility of Exodus in Santa Clara is scheduled to go online this week. In addition, a build out within a second co-location facility is underway.
A co-location deployment strategy allows Interactive Telesis to take advantage of the many benefits offered by the leading Internet Data Centers (IDCs). ``IDCs understand how to house emerging technologies using uninterruptible power sources, redundant connectivity, and physical security safeguards as standard operating practices supporting the digital economy,'' said Larry Ohl, Interactive Telesis vice president, engineering and operations. ``These measures combined with the extensive steps Interactive Telesis takes to protect their customers' voice applications and data, will ensure an extremely stable hosting environment.''
``We believe co-location is the most rapid and sound means to expand,'' said Donald E. Cameron, CEO of Interactive Telesis. ``Clearly IDCs understand how to house information technology infrastructure. There is now a general acceptance that as the Web becomes voice-enabled, the demand for voice hosting will rise just as data hosting grew with the explosion of the Internet.''
Interactive Telesis provides a voice hosting utility for enterprises that are seeking to voice-enable their Web-based e-commerce or information services. Voice hosting services serve as a front-end processor to Internet databases, processing phone calls into digital requests and returning the data response to the requester in a voice format. Interactive Telesis' turnkey solution consists of the latest speech recognition technology, computer telephony equipment and telecommunications services, 24/7 monitoring and maintenance and customer on-line access to application management and real-time call detail information. Customers pay only for the capacity they require resulting in low up-front costs combined with immediate scalability.
