Hi, I'm developing a content management sytem for a large (8,000 user) intranet. My client will be building on additional applications as the intranet evolves. I am looking for a hosting solution that can provide backup and recovery, server configuration, and performance optimization (to inlcude potentially distributing the application over multiple boxes). I found a number of providers on zope.org (http://www.zope.org/Resources/ZSP) that specialize in hosting (as opposed to companies that focus primarily on development and provide hosting as an additional service). They are: New Information Paradigms (http://www.nipltd.net/), IMeme (http://imeme.net), and Bay Mountain (http://www.baymountain.com/services/managedHosting). An additional requirement is 24x7 help desk support for end-users. The support provider would need to learn and become comfortable with the specific application I am developing as well as other apps that would be added in the future. The only one that seemed to fit this description is http://www.connexusinc.com/Services/services.html. I'm wondering whether anyone can point me in the direction of additional candidates for this evaluation, or if anyone has had experience with any of these vendors. Many thanks!
