Hosting.com Boosts Cloud Footprint, Security With NeoSpire Acquisition

The terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Denver-based Hosting.com said the acquisition expands its portfolio of services.

"The synergistic relationship between NeoSpire's managed hosting services, including managed security, application hosting, database administration, exchange hosting, SaaS hosting and collocation work well within the current and future direction of Hosting.com's strategic plans," Art Zeile, CEO of Hosting.com, said in a statement. "We're excited to bring their current customers into our portfolio and leverage NeoSpire's extensive security operations and expertise."

Founded in 1999, NeoSpire offers a host of security services and best practices to protect customers and via its security operations center in Dallas offers compliance and certification assistance to ensure customers adhere to government regulations.

The marriage of Hosting.com and NeoSpire gives NeoSpire customers access to Hosting.com's availability and recovery services, and its full suite of enterprise-class hosting offerings, including the recently released Cloud Replication offering that uses VMware vCenter Site Recovery manager 5 to deliver off-site data protection and disaster recovery.

Hosting.com now boasts more than 131,000 square feet of available co-location space in six different cities: Dallas, Denver, Irvine Calif., Louisville, Newark, Del. and San Francisco.

"We started NeoSpire with the vision of providing the best customer service in the managed hosting industry,” Mitch Gervis, CEO and co-founder of NeoSpire, said in a statement. "Hosting.com shares this commitment and will also bring an expanded product line to enhance our current offerings."
