Since 1998 Solarspeed.net
offers software installations on server appliances like the Sun
Cobalt. Since several years we also deliver the same
services for CentOS
+ BlueQuartz server appliances. They are the open source
successor of the original Cobalt RaQs and offer a much more secure and more
modern hosting platform than the original RaQs.
In the fall of 2006 we started - together with NuOnce Networks, Inc. - the development of Aventurin{e}, which is a Linux Virtualization Appliance.
Aventurin{e} allows you - with the same ease as on a Cobalt RaQ or BlueQuartz server - to create and manage virtual private servers. These virtual private servers can even run different Linux distributions. So on one Aventurin{e} master node you can run multiple different Linux distributions side by side. This makes it ideal for ISPs or companies with their own IT infrastructure, as you can utilize your existing hardware in the most efficient fashion.
We offer Aventurin{e} as downloadable ISO image, but also sell servers (and even clusters!) with Aventurin{e} pre-installed.
We also offer server migrations,
Linux consulting and troubleshooting related to these appliances and we manufacture
custom tailored CentOS
+ BlueQuartzserver
appliances in house.
We have put together a lot
of software packages designed with the unique demands in mind
which anyone who operates such a server appliance might have. Aside from commercially
bundled software we also offer free downloads of ready to run
PKG or RPM files.
Our hardware and software
is designed to ensure a trouble free, relieable and secure operation of your
server
appliance
- may that be an old Sun Cobalt RaQ, Qube,
XTR, RaQ550 or a new Centos
+ BlueQuartz server. We also help out to troubleshoot specific
issues which one might have with a server appliance and help with server migrations,
installation of third party software or check servers for compromises and
root
kits.
