Hosting.com and Coyote Point Systems Become Partners



Hosting.com, a provider of cloud hosting and recovery services, has entered a partnership agreement with Coyote Point Systems, Inc., a provider of load balancing products which ensures cost-effectiveness, secured and reliable traffic management solutions.

Coyote’s Dedicated Load Balancing solution dynamically distributes traffic across the Web servers, improving the uptime of client applications and websites. These ensure increase in Web traffic and are perfect for customers who have multiple Web servers. The solutions are used by various Hosting.com (News - Alert) cloud, dedicated and colocation customers for improved application response time and uptime.

"Ensuring the uptime and availability of client applications and web assets is critical to Hosting.com's current and continued success; offering Coyote Point's dedicated load balancers allows us to bring a secure, cost-effective solution to a broader set of customers,” said Gabe Grice, Hosting.com product manager, in a press release. “A specific cost cutting measure is that clients can offload SSL certificates directly to the Equalizer; thus, reducing the processing power needed to support the certificates directly on a customer's server."

A major beneficiary of Coyote’s load balancing solutions is Natural Insight, a SaaS (News - Alert) task management solution for merchandisers and retailers. After implementing these load balancing solutions, Natural Insights have doubled the Web traffic.

"Natural Insight's growth has been phenomenal – but we hit a performance limitation with our shared load balancing solution and knew it would cause some customer pain points if not corrected," stated Paul Carney, Natural Insight's VP of technical services, in a press release.

"We turned to Hosting.com for their expertise to determine the right solution and equally important, the migration process. Hosting.com worked with us and Coyote Point to provide the solution we needed not only for our current growth, but also to support our future growth – the migration and implementation processes were seamless."

"Coyote Point's Application Delivery Controller technology will augment Hosting.com's strategy to provide high availability and Always On solutions to their clients. This solution ensures the availability and accelerated performance of mission critical applications in a cost-effective, hosted model," said James Puchbauer, director of marketing and business development for Coyote Point. "The Managed Services and On-Demand Hosting are key markets for Coyote Point. We are very pleased to have a premier provider and innovative leader in this space like Hosting.com recognize our value proposition."

Coyote Point Systems (News - Alert) Inc. specializes in application delivery, acceleration and load balancing solutions that enable IT personnel to “have greater control and increase the performance of their web and application servers.”

In related company news, Coyote’s President Michael Hayes has been named a Channel Chief by Everything Channel's CRN.
