such as on-line tournaments or new
game launches.
VLAN for flexibility
A single custom layer 2 Virtual
LAN provides secure, low-latency
link for hybrid environment
Managed Hosting for
performance and security

to physical disks supplying database
information for optimal performance.
Organizations with specific security
requirements benefit from the isolated
resources of a managed platform.
