Global Crossing has launched its Virtual Hosting Solution for Latin America.  Virtual Hosting benefits enterprises by allowing them to grow their businesses, optimize their resources, and improve efficiency, all while reducing expenditures. Together with other Global Crossing services, such as storage area network, backup, network monitoring, managed security, and operating systems and applications administration, Virtual Hosting allows enterprises to carry on key IT projects that enable dynamic growth with maximum flexibility, while reducing the capital expenditures related to physical servers, including the costs of power, space and cooling – as well as carbon emissions. Virtual Hosting solutions that have been active for more than two years for some customers in Argentina, Brazil and Colombia, are now available for the whole region, as part of the IT and Security solutions offered by Global Crossing’s 15 world-class Data Centers in the region. Virtual Hosting turns usually complex processes into simple ones such as Service Delivery, Service Assurance, Problem Management, Capacity Management, and Patch Management, reducing diagnosis and implementation timeframes, as well as decreasing risks.  Among its many applications, Virtual Hosting can be used to segregate development, testing and production environments; Intranets; files repositories and application servers; data base servers; and seamless e-commerce services.
