Data393 To Deliver Managed Hosting, IT Infrastructure For International Restaurant Supplier Galasource, Inc

Englewood, Colorado - March 7, 2007 - Data393, a managed hosting and IT infrastructure provider, announced today an agreement to deliver a full range of managed hosting and IT services to Denver-based Galasource, Inc., an international wholesale equipment and supplies dealer serving the hospitality industry.

Under the agreement, Data393 will provide Galasource with managed Windows and Linux servers which provide central management and high reliability hosting for Galasource’s e-commerce and corporate needs. Galasource’s website, http://www.galasource.com/, is one of the most heavily visited sites in the demanding food service equipment and supply industry.

“We’ve always been reliant on our websites for online sales and order processing, and we recently decided to entrust Data393 to manage our web hosting infrastructure while we focus on supporting our customers in the restaurant and hospitality industry,” said Jamal Pilger, CIO/CTO of Galasource. “Ensuring our websites are always available and performing well for our customers is critical. Data393 provides us with managed dedicated hosting, load balancing and enhanced security products like a virtual private network and SecureData data protection to make certain we are operating securely and effectively at any time during any situation.”

Galasource is taking advantage of Data393’s Virtual Private Network which encrypts data over a secured channel to prevent outside interception while giving authorized personnel safe access at multiple locations. Data393’s SecureData, a disk-based data protection service, provides Galasource with an ironclad data recovery strategy should there be a catastrophic event. Galasource is also strengthening and increasing the availability to its dedicated hosting environment by using Data393’s Managed Load Balancing, a service that distributes inbound website traffic among multiple servers to mitigate potential bottlenecks and to avoid reduced performance that can cripple e-commerce sites.

“Data393 is pleased to offer a one-stop shop for IT management for Galasource’s burgeoning restaurant supply business while making available the managed hosting solutions that drive e-commerce,” said Erik Porter, Data393’s co-founder and vice president of Sales. “With an investment of more than $30 million into our 24/7-staffed, multi-carrier data center, we are supporting Galasource with managed dedicated servers, load balancing and application management solutions that provide a resilient framework for the company’s critical e-commerce websites.”
