Hosting Company Implements Virtualization to Expand Services and Cut Operations Costs

MaximumASP provides Windows -based Web hosting and managed IT services. Based in Louisville, Kentucky, MaximumASP has 35 employees and hosts 48,000 domains in more than 60 countries. MaximumASP wanted to expand its services without sending data center costs soaring. Also, constant server provisioning and management were hurting business flexibility, innovation, and customer service. MaximumASP deployed Hyper-V virtualization technology in the Windows Server 2008 operating system to consolidate servers, and Terminal Services to give customers easy access to their hosted servers.
