Netwise Hosting’s OpenAccess Connectivity Partner has just announced the most aggressive private business fibre circuit pricing ever seen in the UK. Our clients now have exclusive access to these rates, which combined with our remarkable Server Colocation pricing makes for the ultimate IT outsourcing package.
We are calling this unique service COLO-CONNECT. The catch? You only have until the 31/10/2012 to apply for a quote before these prices rise back to market value.
You can now introduce a high speed fibre connection to your office, and colocate safe in the knowledge that you can talk to your remote machines unimpeded. It has never been more affordable to install a private leased-line and colocate with Netwise Hosting.
Any premises on-net with Virgin Business can now obtain a 100Mbps fibre circuit on a 1Gbps Bearer for £160 / month, with varying setup fees dependant on contract length and initial circuit size.
An example package would look like this;

The first thing you’re going to notice is the interface. This is the first major departure Microsoft has made from its trusted desktop environment for its server operating system, adopting the new tile layout (Metro) first seen in Windows 8 earlier this year. You can opt to stick to a more traditional desktop environment if you wish, but we certainly feel this will add some variation to how administrators control their machines. This new user interface has been said to make it far easier to manage multiple servers more quickly and efficiently.
One of the key features of Server 2012 is its in-built server virtualisation functionality. While the two entry level editions have very limited virtualisation options (as they are designed primarily for basic single server deployments), Standard and Datacenter both have powerful Hyper-V functionality built right into the core, meaning the base operating system can form the basis of a virtual cloud server setup.
This latest version of the Microsoft Server operating system has been built from the ground up to support cloud platforms. As such, it is perfectly suited to those looking to host virtual machines, databases, applications (SaaS), web hosting, and even desktop hosting. Microsoft’s in-built System Center 2012 handles much of the cloud service management, managing the computing, storage, and network components of the server.
