Pepsi
Bottling Ventures Thirst For A Corporate Data Center
is Quenched By Hosted Solutions [May 4, 2005]
Raleigh,
N.C. – May 4, 2005 – Hosted Solutions, the
Carolinas’ premier data center and hosting solutions
company, announced today the addition of Raleigh, NC
based Pepsi Bottling Ventures to their high profile
national client list. Pepsi Bottling Ventures (PBV),
LLC, a joint venture between Suntory International and
PepsiCo, is PepsiCo's third-largest anchor bottler in
the United States, serving a population of almost 10
million people in portions of North Carolina, Virginia,
Maryland, Delaware and New York.
Pepsi
Bottling Ventures had an important decision to make
– should they build a corporate data center or
secure a hosted environment with a leading managed web
services company? After a hotly contested review of
providers, they made the decision to colocate their
entire corporate data center at Hosted Solutions.
“After
debating the merits of building our own data center
versus colocation, we decided that the implementation
speed and scalability provided by Hosted Solutions made
more sense for us,” says Tommy Alexander, Director
of IT Infrastructure of Pepsi Bottling Ventures. “Hosted
Solutions state-of-the-art facility and 24/7 tech support
staff are in close proximity to our IT department and
corporate headquarters, and enable us to quickly address
several of our disaster recovery requirements.”

in the US,” Hosted Solutions CEO Rich Lee says.
“Naturally we are excited to add an industry leading
multi-million dollar consumer products company to the
Hosted Solutions client list. Our ability to provide
enterprise level companies with customized, scalable
and cost effective web hosting, data storage and security
solutions continues to provide us with a competitive
advantage.”
