SWsoft, a server automation and software virtualization firm, today announced that Solar VPS LLC, a provider of Virtual Private Servers, is offering SWsoft Plesk control panel software with its hosting plans.

According to the company, it is also using the SWsoft HSP complete hosting automation solution to manage its hosting platforms and SWsoft Virtuozzo virtualization software to power its Windows and Linux Virtual Private Servers. Plesk and Virtuozzo are integrated, providing benefits to Solar VPS and its customers. Virtuozzo VPSs running Plesk provide full dedicated-server functionality, resource management, OS virtualization, and automated management.

"With Virtuozzo, we completely replaced five servers with just one, saving us money, space, management and licensing. That success prompted us to explore other SWsoft products, including Plesk and HSPcomplete," said Ross Brouse, President, Solar VPS.
