Internap Managed Server Services Improve Time-to-Market for CDN Customers

Expansion of CDN Solutions Suite Enhances Market Share Through Server Hardware Maintenance and Management

ATLANTA, GA - October 02, 2007

Internap Network Services Corporation (NASDAQ:INAP), a global provider of end-to-end Internet business solutions, today announced the launch of its managed server services, a new addition to the companys suite of content delivery network (CDN) solutions. The managed servers enable CDN customers to further rely on Internaps expertise for their Web-based businesses while ensuring faster time to market.

As an addition to the companys robust CDN solutions, customers can lease servers on a contracted, month-to-month basis, resulting in lower initial capital expenditure than purchasing servers directly. In addition to Internaps robust technical expertise and resources, the company also provides comprehensive server set up and remote hands application installation support. The servers integrate with the CDN to support rich streaming media applications for the Web. Internap provides complete maintenance and management of the servers and also installs the Microsoft Windows Server and Red Hat Linux operating systems upon which customers applications are layered.

Internaps managed servers feature redundancy and load balancing in combination with the CDN and MediaConsole® reporting tool. Dedicated firewalls are also available for the servers, which are supported through Internaps award-winning network operations center (NOC). The scalability of the service allows customers to grow exponentially to field their growing businesses.
