Company's fully-managed hybrid servers combine benefits of virtualization technology with the performance of a dedicated server at an affordable price.

TurnKey Internet, a provider of managed web hosting solutions for small and medium sized businesses, today announced that it has created a new line of hybrid servers using the latest advances in server hardware combined with industry-leading virtualization software Virtuozzo. The company says that these fully-managed hybrids offer the performance and reliability of its dedicated servers, with increased energy efficiency at an affordable price.

It explains that while a traditional dedicated web server is often under-utilized and idle between tasks, it still consumes a large amount of electricity. The optimized resources on its hybrid servers provide dedicated web server performance for up to 8 clients on one machine. The company states that this ensures peak operation while using less energy per client, allowing environmentally conscious businesses and individuals the opportunity to purchase a high-quality web hosting solution that saves them money while reducing their carbon footprint.

It further explains that all of its hybrid servers are backed by 24x7, fully-managed support previously only available on their dedicated line. With a choice of Windows or Linux, each hybrid server includes free cPanel or Plesk, bare metal off-site back-ups, a managed firewall, system administrative assistance, security monitoring and auditing and free server migration assistance.

"The hybrid server finds the perfect balance of price, performance and reliability and it's very environmentally friendly," said Adam Wills, President and CEO of TurnKey Internet. "Choosing a hybrid server over a dedicated server is like car-pooling, saving energy while still getting where you need to go."
