Iarna.com provides shared hosting and collocation services, with data centers in London and Toronto. Its customers include such companies as Volkswagen, Toshiba, Lucent and the London Fire Brigade.
"By acquiring Iarna.com, Hostway has taken an important step in our ongoing commitment to customer service,? says Lucas Roh, president, CEO and founder of Hostway. ?This will allow our customers to leverage our global resources while helping Hostway serve their specific needs in the comfort of their local setting. Like Hostway, Iarna.com is a fast-growing business that understands the value of excellent customer service. Iarna.com brings a talented team, proven experience and solid reputation to Hostway."
With Korean operations underway since 2000, as well as the acquisition of Iarna.com, Hostway says it will now be able to deliver the same level of services from Chicago, London and Seoul. Iarna.com will become known as Hostway UK, will retain its full staff and will benefit from larger capacity and additional research and development investment.
Hostway says Iarna.com customers will see immediate improvements, including an expanded range of products and services. Linux plans will be made available to all Iarna.com customers starting in April, as will the latest version of Hostway's award winning Web-based control panel SiteControl.
