By ApplianSys , September 25, 2005

City of College Station, Texas has appointed ApplianSys Limited to provide a robust DNS backbone to support its online residential services. The DNSBOX server appliance helps deliver exceptional reliability through its sophisticated twin ‘CompactFlash’ architecture. Not using hard disks means a primary point of hardware failure has been eliminated - the DNSBOX is built to me more reliable from the ground up.

“If any master or slave suffers a hardware failure, you can simply remove the flash cards from the failed unit, replace it with a spare hardware unit, insert the cards, reboot and it’s as good as new”, says Tom Spangenburg – CEO of BostonNetSource, ApplianSys’ US based Solution Partner. “Its ‘plug & play’ simplicity for DNS management”, he adds.

The City of College Station (www.cstx.gov) is a young municipality, with its beginnings in the founding of Texas A&M College, the third largest public university in the US. Incorporated in 1938, College Station is a home-rule city that operates under the Council-Manager form of government and serves a population of over 67,000 residents.
