SLT introduces competitive 'hosting' services

Sri Lanka Telecom (SLT) has introduced three new hosting services on the SLT internet data centre for small and medium businesses and individuals.

The hosting packages with higher capacity will be the quickest and easiest way to get a website online with a powerful self-managed control panel. Better customer support with experienced staff, good uptime and unlimited monthly data transfers are features that customers will experience through these new hosting packages, a company official said.

The newly introduced hosting packages are 'Web Active', 'Web Live' and 'Web Ultima' which include 'Shared web hosting' features that supports Windows-based hosting and Linux-based hosting, supports multiple languages and adds flexibility to own developments, database hosting, Content Management Systems (CMS) to bring down development costs, free DNS hosting, web builders service, payment gateways and image gallery management system.

Chief Marketing Officer, SLT, Ajantha Seneviratne said, "Major changes are taking place in communication markets across all countries, which have profound effects in improving economic and social development. These include the improvement of Internet access, the development and sharing of local content, decreasing access prices for ICT users and the new opportunities.

"Such an evolution can have benefits for education and skills development, infrastructure, trade, including large businesses and small and medium enterprises, services and technological and human development," he said.

"We are serious about achieving national ICT targets and making a meaningful impact on minimising the digital divide and encouraging local content developers which will all have a positive impact on foreign currency and national GDPand encourage the digital lifestyle which will no doubt enrich the lives of people," Seneviratne said.

"The key benefit of having a domestic internet exchange service and hosting content locally is that domestic internet traffic, such as an internet subscriber reading a local online newspaper, would all be handled locally," he said

"This reduces the costs of the communication, reduces payment to global operators in foreign currency and increases speed for internet users. We are actually giving a better internet experience to all Sri Lankan citizens by encouraging local content development and hosting content locally," Seneviratne said.
