Welcome back to Microsoft Hosting University!

You may have noticed some changes to our site, and we hope you and your team enjoy them. Let’s take a moment to outline some of the new portal features.

First and foremost, our redesign of Microsoft Hosting University is not simply cosmetic. In this new version of Hosting University we have made a big commitment to putting the hosting partner first, and designed all functionality on the premise of helping a hoster grow their business.

From a technical specifications standpoint, the new Microsoft Hosting University is built on ASP .NET, utilizes Orchard Project content management system, and delivers a bulk of content and presentation layers in HTML 5. What’s more, Hosting University is physically hosted in a Microsoft Dynamic Data Center environment and relies on Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V alongside SQL Server and System Center to manage the physical and virtual IT infrastructure.

Right from the home page you will notice dramatic differences from our previous iteration. Based on audience feedback and global internet trends, we have made a strong commitment to video. Regularly, we will publish hosting and cloud computing videos for your educational (and sometimes entertainment) consumption. The trend in online video is here for the duration and Hosting University is prepared to deliver.

Navigationally, users will also appreciate the simplicity of getting single-click access to our most frequently visited pages including Products, Licensing, and Marketing. For those audiences seeking to expand their knowledge-bases, we have published a Training page where users can consume materials on a number of Windows hosting infrastructure topics and beyond. What’s more, the team at Hosting University has also published a What’s New page where power-users can consume the latest contents, view a calendar of worldwide hosting events, and read the latest announcements and news items published by Microsoft Hosting University.

On the whole, these changes represent a dramatic shift in design as well as content delivery, and hopefully provide you and your team with the necessary tools designed to help grow your hosting business.
