Web hosting providers know the value of getting only the most robust, resilient and durable servers and network equipments to gain a sure-footed presence on the internet that its clients can use with the utmost confidence. Redundancy is basic if they want non-stop 24x7 operations. But this is expensive. While the hardware cost is going down, there’s only so much savings in that area and every technological wizardry helps to create progressively airtight cost effectiveness.

Web hosting providers know the value of getting only the most robust, resilient and durable servers and network equipments to gain a sure-footed presence on the internet that its clients can use with the utmost confidence. Redundancy is basic if they want non-stop 24x7 operations. But this is expensive. While the hardware cost is going down, there’s only so much savings in that area and every technological wizardry helps to create progressively airtight cost effectiveness. This is why virtualization has become the darling among IT departments and hosting providers. It enables hosted client computing with just the right processing power when they need it while allowing administrators the efficiencies and cost savings of a centralized hosting operation.
This is the market where the $100 million Washington-headquartered Parallels, Inc. has been shining since its launch in 2005. It is a software development enterprise that specializes in virtualization solutions for the Mac, Windows and Linux computing environments, both for client and server computing. Peter Bauert, its COO and CFO, has been in the forefront of marketing its products which currently consists of the desktop solutions like Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac, Parallels Desktop 4 for Windows and Linux, and centralized server solutions like Parallels Server for Mac and Parallels Plesk Control Panel and Parallels Automation
The maverick Peter Bauert knows what seamless partitioning can do to anyone’s productivity when toggling between two or more different platforms. Nothing less than desktop or laptop efficiency becomes a reality which the Parallels virtualization software enables. Stand alone or client desktops and laptops powered by the Parallels Desktop of Mac, for instance, allows users to have a virtualized Windows partition, allowing them to toggle between the native Mac OS X and the partitioned Windows when they have to work on apps uniquely run on either.
Peter Bauert covers the client server computing environment with its server virtualization solutions, web hosters using the Parallels Plesk Control Panel allows them to configure new web hosting clients on the fly, automating the subscription process all the way to billing. Its Parallel Automation solution adds remote cloud computing solutions that allow web hosters to offer the Microsoft Office 365.
