Advanced
Network Solutions opens second Data Center and offers
ASP and colocation services.
AKRON, OHIO – March 3,
2004 – Advanced Network Solutions, Inc.
(ANS), who has been a provider of remote solutions for
the past twelve years, has opened a second ASP (Application
Service Provider) Data Center to service clients throughout
Ohio. Adding to their success in Akron, Ohio, ANS opened
a new facility in Cleveland. The Cleveland data center
features redundant server platforms, UPS and Generator
power backup, Disk array and tape backup, sophisticated
security and robust monitoring capabilities. In addition
to offering hosted applications, ANS has robust colocation
facilities both in Akron and in Cleveland. Through its
ASP offering, Advanced Network Solutions provides customers
their own virtual data center to operate specific core
business software applications or all of its applications.
The customer can access their applications securely
over the pubic Internet securely or through the private
fiber networks from Fidelity Access Networks and others.
The customer only needs a standard web browser to gain
access to a custom tailored menu with their applications.
All management, software updates, licensing and help
desk is provided by ANS professional staff.
“With the continued complexity
for companies to manage their network and application
infrastructure, application hosting service offers our
clients a way to focus their IT resources on proactive
management and deployment of technologies focused on
their particular business model. The day-to-day activity
of managing security, virus and hacker attacks, licensing,
routine maintenance, new user setup and help desk are
delegated to our engineering and technical staff.”
said Joseph R. Aiello, President of Advanced Network
Solutions.
“Our ASP business model allows
customers to outsource specific applications or all
of their applications to our redundant data center.
This can provide a good mix of efficient deployment
and management of company resources. Companies that
are multi-location or are opening new locations can
now startup new users by giving them an Internet connection,
ID and password. Users simply logon to access their
applications. In addition, our service can utilize almost
any client and operating system. Customers can now get
longer usage cycles from existing equipment. When replacements
are needed, they can utilize a thin client terminal
at 40 to 50 percent of the cost.”
“With our new facility, we are
able to provide multiple facility redundancy along with
higher capacities and direct sonnet ring fiber technology
with multiple upstream Internet providers for our most
demanding clients. Whether they want a secure place
to colocate their web or application servers or just
need another redundant location, we can now offer them
more choices than ever.”
