WorldLingo builds global ASP business on TurboLinux and Dell Poweredge Servers.
SAN FRANCISCO, October 23, 2000 - TurboLinux®, Inc., the high-performance Linux company, today announced that WorldLingo, the leader in foreign-language e-mail translation, is using TurboLinux Cluster Server 6 and Dell Poweredge Servers as the clustering infrastructure for its booming new Web business.
WorldLingo, with offices in four countries, currently runs its business on three clusters, all using Dell PowerEdge 2450 servers running TurboLinux Cluster Server 6. One cluster hosts WorldLingo's Apache Web servers, another is running the company's application servers and the third is home to the servers that do the actual translations.

"WorldLingo is a great example of a company which needed a flexible, high-availability solution at an affordable price," said Rok Sosic, CTO for TurboLinux. "TurboLinux Cluster Server 6 is a robust, secure and highly available solution that continues to power a growing number of highly trafficked dot-coms."
