FORT WORTH, Texas, Jan 21, 2004 /PRNewswire
via COMTEX/ -- C I Host, a global leader in Web hosting
and Internet solutions, is offering Red Hat Enterprise
Linux operating systems to its Web hosting customers.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux creates a reliable,
secure high performance platform that delivers a consistent
application, management and user environment.
Christopher Faulkner, CEO of C I Host,
said the addition of Red Hat Enterprise Linux to C I
Host's offerings will give customers more reliability
and flexibility.
"We will be able to meet the growing
demand for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, which will give
our customers a higher level of security and an enhanced
ability to handle significant surges in traffic,"
Faulkner said. "This will be a boon to our customers,
from entry level to enterprise."
The ES version of Red Hat Linux works
on entry-level and departmental server applications
such as network, file, print, mail of Web and custom
or packaged business applications. RHES is designed
for smaller server systems with up to two CPUs and 4
GB of main memory.
The AS version is the top of the line
enterprise Linux solution and is the ultimate solution

core SMB customers, C I Host is also moving towards
offering more enterprise services, such as collocation,
load balancing, application hosting and clustering and
business continuity," Faulkner said. "Offering
Red Hat Linux to even our largest customers is part
of that expansion."
C I Host customers will also benefit
from Red Hat Enterprise Linux because the applications
they need to run their businesses, including those from
