Parallels partners with ViUX Systems to provide a complete hosting automation system for all of its clients.

The new hosting system is based upon several modules - HSPComplete, Virtuozzo, Plesk and SiteBuilder - to fully automate all four levels of hosting that ViUX offers. Those four levels - Shared Hosting Servers, Virtual Private Servers, Dynamic Dedicated Servers and Reseller Hosting Servers - use redundant, multi-homed, high-speed connections, within multiple geographically dispersed Data Centers.

''Partnering with Parallels gives us a completely automated hosting infrastructure and allows us to offer virtualized hosting to bridge the gap for those customers that have outgrown the shared hosting environment but are not quite ready for a fully dedicated server. In addition, we can now offer automated deployment of hosted applications in a SaaS module, such as: SmarterMail, SmarterStats, DotNetNuke, Miva Merchant, osCommerce'', said Joe Murphy, Vice-President of ViUX.

To market their new hosting system, ViUX has also undertaken a complete revision of its website, providing an easier-to-use interface that complements the new capabilities and flexibility of its automated, virtualized hosting infrastructure. ViUX has also migrated most of its servers to a new datacenter (FastServers.NET) in Cedar Falls, Iowa which allows ViUX to deploy new servers virtually on demand.
