WHIRtv was on location in Washington, DC last week covering Parallel's third annual hosting summit, which, we've been told, had the largest attendance yet.
We chatted with a number of different companies while at the event, which we will be posting in the following weeks, as well as with the ever-opinionated industry leader Serguei Beloussov, CEO of Parallels. Stay tuned for that later this week.
In the meantime, here's a look at what some of the exhibitors and attendees thought of this year's Parallel's Hosting Summit and the value they found in attending this annual event.
Installing System Center Essentials 2007Mar 07, 2008 2:49 PM PST
For some time, Microsoft has focused on large enterprises and small business, as evidenced by products such as Small Business Server. The midmarket (500 PCs, a couple dozen servers) has very similar needs as smaller and larger enterprises, but faces unique challenges. Whereas Microsoft provides some specific products for smaller organizationsincluding the aforementioned Small Business Servermidmarket organizations have had to utilize full-fledged enterprise tools often without the benefit of large IT staffs or significant server infrastructures to do so.
Enter the "Essentials" line, which is targeted
at midmarket IT organizations. I'm not sure if all of Microsoft's mid-market
focused endeavors will use the word "Essentials" but so far, this has
been the case. For the monitoring, system management, and software deployment
side of the house, Microsoft has released System Center Essentials 2007. In
this article, I'll explain the purpose and features of this product, outline
its system requirements and limitations and walk through a sample installation.
We are fortunate enough to have have UK web host blogger, Ben Bolin, share some thoughts about country specific hosting. Ben is blogging at the moment from Egypt. Thanks for being a guest blogger at Web Hosting Finds!

Maximizing Your Mindshare (and Wallet Share) in the New World of SaaSThu, 01 Mar 2007 15:11:00 -0400
I really like SMBLive CEO Matt Howard's way of looking at software as a service. (Some argue that we should start calling it software enabled service.) Matt says running a business is all about maintaining "5 conversations": with oneself, co-workers, external partners (vendors/contractors/distributors), customers and the general public. So ideally, web apps should facilitate personal productivity,
collaboration, vendor management, CRM and sales/marketing.
Traditionally, hosting providers have focused on helping customers maintain a web presence - which only fulfills 20% of the functionalities Matt describes. So I thought it was pretty awesome when Barbara Branaman mentioned that Concentric is in the process of integrating its new collaboration service with its clustered hosting and email solutions. I said the unified offering should help Concentric increase mindshare. Barbara said also importantly, it will boost wallet share. The goal is to earn a larger slice of more customers' IT budgets.
Barbara will need to keep a close eye on Google, whose Apps Premier cover about half of the 5 conversations. Remember last December's headlines about Microsoft battling Gmail for corporate workers' attention? It seems Redmond faces an even tougher challenge with respect to productivity apps: Ars Technica reported yesterday that Google Docs and Spreadsheet account for a 92% share of unique visitors, and 95% of the amount of time spent. I'm not impressed with Google Pages, but Blogger is pretty popular. I'm sure sooner or later both will be rolled into Google Apps, along with Google Base.
Meanwhile, have you heard about eBay's new partnerships with ERP/CRM provider NetSuite (spotted via Mark Crofton's blog) and popular social network Bebo? And SalesForce is looking to build a "circle of success" around its CRM app; David Berlind says their odds are decent.
Earlier David Snead asked via a comment on an earlier post whether easy interoperability between different vendors' apps will obviate the need for hosting providers to customize services for any audience. Based on Rodney Loges' experience, I think the answer is no.
Rodney (who was instrumental in digitalNATION's $100 million sale to Verio as well as Rackspace's launch of its Intensive service) has transformed his company from a web development firm into a SaaS provider by assembling a suite of best-of-breed content management, web analytics, collaboration, etc, tools for associations and non-profits. Each hand-picked application meets specific requirements that his customers share. I think that's what it takes to win in SaaS/SES - of which hosting is just a small percent. In other words, the key is customer segmentation.
Stop your monitoring systems cry "wolf wolf"Wed, 26 Mar 2008 23:13:05 -0400
Ever found it frustrating that your monitoring system alerts you in the middle of the night with a false service down alert? Ever found it difficult to trust the monitoring system alerts because of the network issues in your NOC? The solution to you, is distributed monitoring.
The main aim of distributed monitoring is to produce the exact result of server service checks with the help of distributed, central monitoring servers and to avoid incorrect information.
