Data center operator and managed services provider Hosted Solutions (hostedsolutions.com) signed a multi-year collocation agreement with next generation technology company Useful Technology (linxter.com) on September 13, 2007.

Useful Technology has developed the first hyperconnective software for applications that enables businesses and developers to network any IP asset using a common communications infrastructure to expand market opportunities, increase adaptability to market shifts and eliminate the need to predict communication changes.

Hosted Solutions’ Boston data center will provide a reliable collocation facility in which Useful Technology's core applications will reside. The Hi-Touch collocation agreement takes advantage of Hosted Solutions' carrier grade facility and redundant multi-provider network architecture. Hosted Solutions has developed great relationships within the software as a service market by providing SaaS companies with cost effective, functional services.

"Useful Technology needed a local partner who could meet their current and long-term needs," said Rich Lee, CEO of Hosted Solutions. "Reliability is critical to any online business. We provided them with a flexible technology solution that guarantees network availability and can expand with their fast growing business."
