FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LexiConn adopts Red Hat Enterprise Linux as new Operating System
COLCHESTER, CT -- March 21, 2005 -- LexiConn Internet Services, a privately
held provider of web hosting and ecommerce services, today announced
that it has decided upon Red Hat Enterprise Linux as the core operating
system for its servers going into the future.
LexiConn is pleased to announce that all new servers will be built
with the new Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system as the core OS.
LexiConn has always used Red Hat Linux as its OS for all servers, but
these past operating systems were the free versions that were customized
for LexiConn's network and hosting environment.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux is an enterprise level, commercially supported
operating system that is unmatched in stability, performance, and security.
Red Hat has developed an industry leading OS that they fully support
and is designed for commercial enterprise grade deployment for web servers.
The OS is backed by the Red Hat development team, and has a five year
end-of-life (EOL) contract, resulting in a stable and fully supported
system into the future.
Red Hat still maintains an open source approach to its commercial operating
system, but provides enhanced support and rapid patches and upgrades
to installed software. This approach is well suited for LexiConn, as
all servers are built with high quality components, and this enterprise
OS will match this high level of quality. The new OS will help to increase
server stability and security well into the future, and shows the commitment
LexiConn has to providing a truly reliable and flexible hosting solution.
