Vivio Technologies Partners with Ksplice

VPS and Dedicated Server Hosting Provider Vivio Technologies has partnered with Security Software Vendor Ksplice in order to provide Linux Dedicated Server customers with the ability to apply kernel patches to their systems without needing to reboot.

Walla Walla, WA, February 11, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The ability to patch the Linux Kernel without rebooting is provided by Ksplice Uptrack software, which provides the unique ability to update the kernel that's running in the system's memory. This gives Ksplice Uptrack users the unprecedented ability to keep their servers patched, secure, and stable, while removing the need for downtime due to a server reboot. Typical kernel updates can still be applied via standard updating techniques, such as up2date, yum, etc. If a server is rebooted, the patches that have been applied via the file system then go into effect.

When asked about why Vivio chose to enter in to a partnership with Ksplice, Vivio Technologies CEO Jordan Michaels had this to say: “Partnering with Ksplice was an obvious choice for us. Vivio Technologies is always looking for new ways to improve our customers security and uptime experiences, and both of those are a clear benefit of using the Ksplice Uptrack software. What's more, Ksplice is extremely affordable at just $3.95 per month per server. With such obvious benefits and no discernible negatives, we couldn't help but offer this opportunity to our Dedicated Server and VPS customers.”

Vivio Technologies currently offers the Ksplice Uptrack software with it's Dedicated Server Hosting Accounts, and has further plans to include Ksplice with it's XEN-Based VPS Hosting Accounts within the coming months.
