Notability and verifiability issues, written like an advert no doubt by someone with a conflict of interest. Nominating after failed speedy by another editor: "This article is written like an advertisement. The sources referenced are from press releases and promotional material for the company, not independent, verifiable sources. The company itself is not noteworthy, the only noteworthy fact is that the founder is a socialite from NYC and the son of the NYC department of city planning, Amanda Burden. His social status and mother by themselves do not make this a noteworthy company. The voice of the article is written as promotional material and would require a full rewrite to remove bias."

Delete "They specialize in highly-available solutions" Spam, Wikipedia is not a means of promotion. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:32, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Article was created and developed by an editor who didn't do much else. Seems to have a lot of references, but of questionable quality. If notability can be established through a good quality source, then it may just need some clean-up and style improvements. MakeSense64 (talk) 14:50, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
delete this is clearly spam. first 20 google hits are to either company's promotional material or to other, unrelated topics, so seems to fail notability. article does nothing to establish it. Alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 16:56, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete. Unambiguous advertising: They expanded their managed hosting competency to become a pure-play complex managed hosting firm, targeting clients with high-availability system requirements. During that time, the firm launched its Managed Database Services in order to attract and support SaaS and eCommerce clients requiring secure, compliant, and transaction intensive database performance. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:54, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Why do some of you hate these companies so much? Without them, your beloved WP and most of the rest of Internet content would not exist. The editors that quote portions of the article here are misguided if they think that problems with prose or style are reasons for deletion. Better to look at the quality of the sources like MakeSense did; there's 28 sources to judge. Don't think I'm defending this article because I'm not... I'm just not voting --DeVerm (talk) 17:04, 30 July 2011 (UTC).[reply]
