Layered Technologies, a leading provider of reliable, affordable, and scalable on-demand, self-managed utility hosting services, recently announces DynaVol, a grid-based scalable and flexible data management solution. Whether storing data or serving static content, DynaVol offers a highly-available, reliable and secure environment for data management needs.
With clients in over 120 countries, Layered Technologies' custom technology solutions allow both large and small customers to rapidly deploy on-demand hosting and utility computing services, providing all the controls of colocation without the start up costs, capital investments, long term contracts and associated challenges. By partnering with Layered Technologies, companies are able to achieve ROI quickly via reduced capital investment, total cost of ownership (TCO), labor reduction, training, and floor space. Layered Technologies can have a company up and running in days versus months.
"DynaVol gives our customers peace of mind," said Michael Platner, CEO of Layered Technologies. "Data is securely stored and served off-site in our world-class, top tier data centers and is part of our fully redundant backup network. DynaVol's functionality is simple and robust, ensuring our customers' data is always available when they need it – as well as scalable, as needed."
DynaVol is a web-based storage solution that offers a reliable and secure environment for either storing data or serving static content. DynaVol safeguards valuable data at on-site and off-site locations using a highly-available data storage model that utilizes the transparent data mirroring of Layered Technologies grid hosting infrastructure. All data is mirrored to a different server at a different location as backup, with nearly instant automated backup recovery. All data is stored on a network RAID1 pair.
With DynaVol all data is stored in "virtualized containers," allowing for complete user control of the storage environment, including the ability to upload, download, store and serve data from one convenient location to another. The DynaVol package is housed in a virtual private server (VPS) environment, enabling access to the supported protocols and services using either built-in VPN server support or public IP-based access systems.
"DynaVol is a perfect solution for those that need to store and serve static content," said Todd Abrams, COO and President of Layered Technologies, "As well as for system administrators and developers that need an easy to use and flexible data storage solution that will support all of their in-house systems."
Pricing for DynaVol packages starts at $14.99 per month (with a Layered Technologies' server) and includes free allocations of data storage and bandwidth. Additional bandwidth is available at discounted rates to support customers' specific bandwidth needs. For additional information on Layered Technologies, please visit www.layeredtechnologies.com.
