    Microsoft-IIS/5.1 sighted, Commerce Server released
    
   There was a first sighting of Microsoft-IIS/5.1 which is the web
   server for the Microsoft Whistler [1]release this month. The most
   significant deployment has been as part of a load balanced set of
   sites at [2]intel.com. However, Intel still mainly runs
   Microsoft-IIS/4.0 and the Whistler servers meet only a small
   percentage of the requests to intel.com.
   
   Also this month, [3]Microsoft Commerce Server was [4]released.
   Commerce Server's predecessor, SiteServer was widely adopted and is
   one of the key reasons for NT's widespread use as an ecommerce
   platform. Currently Microsoft-IIS runs just under half the sites
   performing encrypted transactions on the internet and is continuing to
   grow.
   
    DellHost launch in Europe, PSI at risk
    
   Currently, the dedicated server business is the most dynamic arena
   within the web services market, with market leaders such as [5]Verio,
   [6]Rackspace and [7]Interland typically increasing the number of
   machines they host by a factor of five over the last year. Arguably,
   the company that the market leaders fear most is Dell, which is an
   order of magnitude of bigger, and enjoys vertical integration
   economies through its position as a leading PC manufacturer. This
   month Dell launched in the [8]UK. Emphasising the geographical
   flexibility of the dedicated server market where customers rarely, if
   at all, visit their machines in person, dellhost.co.uk is located in
   Paris, while the machines are sold through a telesales center located
   in Ireland. Round trip times to dellhost.co.uk from networks in the UK
   are typically about 50% higher than response times from well known UK
   hosting locations, such as [9]Demon Internet though still very
   respectable at around 50ms.
   
   One company that may have overexpanded is [10]PSI. Although PSI is one
   of the largest ISPs in the world, its stock price has [11]fallen to a
   recent level of $1 from a high of $60, and it reportedly has debts of
   around [12]$2.5billion. PSI [13]customers are being courted with
   competitive offers by much of the rest of the industry.
   
    Baltimore & register.com form partnership to sell SSL certificates
    
   [14]Baltimore, who bought Certificate Authority [15]Cybertrust in
   January, have announced a [16]partnership to sell certificates to
   [17]register.com's 3 million domain name customers, and thereby
   challenge the [18]Verisign / [19]Network Solutions domination of the
   SSL market. Historically, Cybertrust's share of the internet SSL
   certificate market has been inconsequential, but partnering with the
   most successful of the new domain name registrars will undoubtedly
   make a considerable difference. In the first four months of this year
   register.com reached around 17% of new domain registrations from a
   standing start on January 1st. However, over two thirds of
   register.com's domains are parked and not in active use by their
   owners, and there is unlikely to be demand for SSL certificates from
   these domain owners in the short term.
