Clustering and managed hosting solutions providers join forces to ensure availability, scalability and simplicity into open source technologies.

Emic Networks, a provider of application clustering solutions, today announced a partnership with Canada Web Hosting, a provider of premium managed hosting solutions in Toronto and Vancouver.

Through this partnership, Emic will help Canada Web Hosting provide enterprise class managed hosting solutions to its customer base of small-to medium-sized businesses. With Emic's m/cluster solution for MySQL databases, Canada Web Hosting will provide customers with fully managed clustering solutions for their MySQL databases at cost of other clustered database offerings in the marketplace, claims the company.

"Emic's m/cluster technology has opened the door to small and medium sized businesses which require highly available database services to support their mission critical applications," said Brian Shepard, President of Canada Web Hosting. "We are confident that, with Emic, we have again strengthened our ability to deliver only the highest quality of managed hosting services to our clients."

"Canada Web Hosting is an ideal partner for Emic. We share their philosophy that enterprise-class solutions should not be limited to large enterprises, but instead available to businesses of all sizes," said Emic CEO, Eero Teerikorpi. "Both companies are dedicated to delivering greater availability, scalability and simplicity into open source technologies such as MySQL, and we look forward to our joint work in support of this mission."
