ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 27, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Interliant, Inc. (OTCBB:INIT), a leading provider of managed infrastructure solutions, announced today at Lotusphere 2003 the availability of two new hosting and consulting services for organizations migrating to Lotus Notes(r)/Domino 6 (ND6), the latest release of IBM's messaging and collaboration server software. The services -- Interliant Managed Messaging for Domino 6 and Interliant Domino 6 Migration Services -- are designed help Notes and Domino users move to ND6 and manage their Domino 6 infrastructure more cost-effectively, reliably, and securely.
"Interliant's Domino 6 solutions are more than just a hosting offering," said Francis J. Alfano, Interliant's president and CEO. "We are now offering a set of packaged services that help an organization plan their migration strategy, execute the transition, eliminate migration service disruptions, and lower the cost of managing their Domino 6 infrastructure."
Alfano added, "Because Lotus Domino is such a critical part of an organization's IT infrastructure, we've designed these services to make both migration and daily operations as reliable and simple as possible. Interliant has ten years of Domino experience, and in recent months we've invested heavily in Domino 6, both in our hosting operations and in our professional services organization, where we are well on the way to our goal of certifying 100% of our Domino consultants on ND6."
Interliant Managed Messaging for Domino 6 is a comprehensive outsourced Domino infrastructure solution. Its features include:
-- Lotus-certified engineering and operations management,
-- customizable monitoring and automatic remediation,
-- 24 x 7 staffed system administration and customer support,
-- daily data backup, off site tape storage, and on-demand
restoration,
-- anti-virus, anti-spam, and content filtering,
-- sophisticated firewall security, and
-- comprehensive industry-benchmark service level agreements.
The service can be configured with a customer's Domino servers in Interliant's data centers, or with the servers located at a customer facility but remotely managed by Interliant.
Interliant Domino 6 Migration Services take organizations through the entire process of moving to ND6 from earlier Domino releases or legacy platforms. Delivered by Interliant's Lotus-certified consultants, the services include:
-- discovery and requirements analysis to gather technical and
business requirements and develop architecture recommendations,
-- implementation planning including server and client configuration
and coexistence planning for mixed-platform environments,
-- pre-migration testing of servers, directories, and templates,
-- migration to Domino 6 servers,
-- Notes client upgrades through a user-driven process, and
-- upgrading and developing applications to take advantage of the new
features of Domino 6.
Interliant's Domino 6 hosting and Domino 6 Migration services are available now.
