Press Release Summary: Canadian Web Host, Cirrus Tech, aims to inform its clients of
the benefits of Dedicated Servers with Virtualization Technology.

Press Release Body: Toronto, ON - April 15, 2008 Cirrus Tech prides itself on being
at the forefront of the Canadian web hosting industry and offering clients
innovative hosting solutions. Cirrus has long been offering Linux and Windows
Virtual Private Server (Virtual Dedicated Servers) hosting plans to its clients. But
with a growing number of VPS clients upgrading to dedicated servers, Cirrus Tech has
officially announced the availability of virtualization technology on its dedicated
server hosting plans.

For a minimal monthly charge, clients can enjoy the benefits of the same
virtualization technology used in Cirrus' Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting plans
in a standalone dedicated server. Although a VPS has dedicated resources and is
isolated within the server, it still exists in a physical server that hosts other
VPS instances. A dedicated server with virtualization utilizes all the resources
available in the dedicated server with a layer of virtualization for added benefits.

Benefits of a Dedicated Server with Virtualization Technology

The major advantage of a dedicated server with virtualization technology that cannot
be realized on a dedicated server without it is fast scaling time. By saving your
server instance in an image file that can be uploaded to another server with more
resources, upgrading time is significantly reduced. Virtualization eliminates the
need to manually recreate an instance of a server, which can be a time consuming
process. This is especially useful for clients on a VPS hosting plan that wants to
upgrade to a dedicated server.

For example, say a website that is hosted on a VPS is experiencing a huge spike in
traffic and requires the resources of a dedicated server ASAP. By upgrading to a
dedicated server with virtualization technology, it's a matter of uploading the
saved VPS instance onto the new dedicated server and some minimal configuration. By
offering virtualization technology in its dedicated server hosting plans, Cirrus
Tech hopes to help VPS clients make the transition to a dedicated server quickly and
with minimal hassle.

Cirrus Tech uses industry leading virtualization software, Virtuozzo by Parallels
for its VPS and dedicated server with virtualization technology hosting solutions.
