plans are featured almost with everything a decent Unix® host
should have besides large disk space quota and high bandwidth
allowance : perl, php, ASP, python, MySQL, PostgreSQL,

First,
tell us a bit about yourself. How long have you been with
Z555, what are your responsibilities?
I have been with z555.com from the moment it was founded. I
am responsible for main company strategy as well as for
technical services strategy.
At the beginning, when we had a few clients to whom we started
to sell our ad serving software with ASP model. They always
could call me and say 'Serge I need a solution for a
problem'. Now we have thousands of clients and my
responsibility is to make them feel that they always can get a
PERSONAL support.

| What
is Z555's technical direction, such as its Web strategy and
hosting plans for penetrating new markets? We
are developing our own web hosting control panel now. Since
almost 30-50% of monthly dedicated hosting packages consists
of the control panel costs, developing our own control panel
will allow us to cut the cost of our dedicated servers and
make them even more affordable. Support for multiple
languages will allow to easily target local markets. The two
main markets we are looking at now are Ukrainian and
Russia.
