Delivers hosting solutions while trimming off a portion of energy usage.

Hostivia, a shared and reseller linux web hosting provider, today announced the launch of a new 'Green' Initiative to minimize the company's negative impact on the environment and offer web hosting customers an environmentally friendly alternative.

The company states that this new initiative is focused on improving energy usage in the datacenter. Namely, all future server deployments will utilize components from Intel, Supermicro, and Seagate that are designed to decrease power consumption without sacrificing performance. New server configurations will ultimately consume 30-40% less power than older systems.

"Going green is about more than just corporate responsibility, it's also good business. As we researched 'Green' hardware configurations, we learned we can deliver more powerful and reliable hosting solutions while trimming off a huge portion of our energy usage," said Rob Tyree, Hostivia CTO. "We reduce our negative impact on the environment, save costs, and meet an important ethical standard—this is a real win-win situation for our company and our community."
