Global Web Hosting allows businesses to rapidly build high-performance web sites to reach their current and prospective customers around the
world. By outsourcing their web operations to Global One, customers can focus on their core business and enjoy a high-performance, reliable
Internet web site at a reduced overall cost. Global Web Hosting alleviates customer concern with bandwidth issues, reduces customer need to staff up
for round-the-clock support, and eliminates customer expenses in building a robust computer room environment.
''The launch of Global Web Hosting is the latest sign of our commitment to offering a single source for complete IP solutions worldwide,'' said Jack
Ziros, Global One vice president for IP services. ''Global Web Hosting is a solution that can easily be tailored for the specific needs of our business
customers, who are looking increasingly to the Internet for their client and prospect communications.''
Global Web Hosting provides flexible options to meet a wide range of customer requirements, including Basic and Advanced packages, as well as
Facilities Management services.
For small-to-medium-sized companies, the Global Web Hosting Basic packages bring customers the easiest, most cost-effective, fully managed web
presence. Implemented on either shared or dedicated servers, this service supports everything from simple HTML page publishing to complex
merchandise management systems. The Shared Hosting service features complete equipment/applications management and includes up to 100 MB
disk space. With Dedicated Hosting services, customers can choose between two systems, each with over 2 GB disk space. All Basic packages
include 2 GB IP traffic per month and at least five e-mail accounts.
For more experienced customers and multinational corporations, Global Web Hosting Advanced services guarantee 100 per cent site availability and
include site replication and load balancing as a standard offering. The complete, balanced solution includes shared web servers as well as a dedicated
package for exclusive web server management. Customers can rely on dedicated Global Web Hosting Advanced services for the most powerful web
environment with support for CGI scripts, Java and e-commerce software. Both the Basic and Advanced services include at least 2 GB IP traffic
volume per month (except the small advanced package), e-mail accounts, back-up and web site statistics. Global Web Hosting Facilities Management
service is ideal for experienced content-hosting customers who can manage their own equipment and applications. This service includes network
connectivity and accommodations for customer-owned servers in Global One worldwide data centers. These Global Web Hosting data centers
provide the fastest route possible with high-speed connections to local Internet exchange points and the Global IP backbone network. With
sophisticated, fault-tolerant and redundant LAN infrastructures, the data centers ensure optimum performance.
