WebMedia Designs offers top quality consulting services with a personal touch. We have the talent, skill and drive to evaluate the options with you, and find the best solution to fit your needs. Listed below are some of our areas of expertise:

• We offer support for UNIX, Linux, Novell, Windows, MacOS and more.
• We can support many different types of computer hardware. From X86 to Alpha, IDE to SCSI, we can handle the job.
• We can build, host, maintain and promote your web site.

We are also fluent with many Commercial and Open Source software products in the UNIX / Linux environment. Many times the solution to your problems can be found in the Open Source community.
	Sun’s Solaris UNIX Operating System is the standard by which other UNIX OS’s are judged. Top notch performance, unmatched reliability, with hardware interoperability make Solaris a name to remember for your mission critical needs.
	Compaq’s Tru64 Operating System, formerly Digital Equipment Corporation [DEC] UNIX, is a very robust and secure UNIX Operating System. With a wide array of Open Source software options available, Enterprise level stability and scalability, Tru64 can answer many questions for you.
	SuSE Linux has been an outstanding Linux choice for a long time, and now with Novell’s acquisition of SuSE Linux, you combine Novell’s rock solid software, such as NetWare Services for Linux, their enterprise support ability, and more to end up with the elite of Linux choices. We use SuSE linux daily and couldn’t be happier.
	We have seen Linux take off in the computing industry. A scalable and reliable operating system in it’s own right, we used Red Hat’s distribution of Linux on many occasions. Red Hat has a fine product with an extremely diverse range of available applications.
	Linux Clusters anyone? We thought so! Using the openMosix kernel extensions, and utilizing Linux’s superb flexibility, we can and have built distributed computing clusters that perform wonderfully at a fraction of the cost of Mainframes. Dynamic and powerful, all on off the shelf hardware at great prices, what more could you want!?
	Novell. They made NetWare, possibly the best and most robust server operating system in existance. Now they have SuSE Linux and are poised to take the industry by storm.
	The mySQL database server is a very powerful and robust Open Source database server that operates superbly with Linux and PHP making a combination that allows for very powerful web sites. We use mySQL regularly and have never been let down.
	PHP has become one of our favorite web development languages. Very flexible, and very powerful, combine this with the mySQL database server and there is almost nothing you cannot do!
	Perl is the greatest thing to happen to command line scripting since sliced bread hit home. Not just for the UNIX / Linux environment, we use Perl on our Windows machines as well, it’s a very powerful tool.
	The apache web server, running on more web servers on the Internet than any other. Truly powerful, a time tested web server that is flexible, powerful, and reliable.
	Sendmail is still one of the most widely used and most accepted e-mail servers out there in the UNIX / Linux world. Powerful if not friendly, we can tame the e-mail beast for you.
	Another fine example of great software. The people a Qualcomm who bring you Eudora make our favorite pop3 server, Qpopper. Hard working and reliable, best of all, it’s free!

We are fluent with many different software applications in the Windows environment, some of these applications include:
	All versions of Microsoft’s Windows Operating System. This includes 9x, ME, NT, 2000, and XP. From the desktop to the enterprise server, we have it under control.
	Using Microsoft’s Visual Studio Development Suite, we can fine tune that project to fit your needs exactly. Web development, software development, it’s all there.
	We have experience with Microsoft’s robust database server, versions 7 and 2000, both in managing these servers and in developing applications and web sites that utilize these servers.
	All Versions of Microsoft’s Office Productivity Suite. From custom spreadsheet solutions and database designs, to eye catching presentations, we can help you get the most out of this software package.
	We can help you with using Microsoft’s FrontPage, and we can setup a FrontPage enabled web site making it easy for you to build, maintain, and manage your Internet presence.
	The folks at IpSwitch have, in our opinion, one of the best e-mail servers that you can get for Windows platforms. We have worked with this e-mail server for a long time and it has never let us down.
