ORGANIZATION: The Constitutional Walking Tour of Philadelphia
LINUXFORCE SERVICE: Web Site Hosting and Systems Management to provide web services and support.
DESCRIPTION: There's a revolutionary new way to see historic Philadelphia - The Constitutional Walking Tour of Philadelphia ("The Constitutional"). Follow in the Founding Fathers' footsteps with The Constitutional, a free and fun-filled activity for the entire family. The Constitutional takes visitors on a free self-guided walking journey through America's most historic square mile - the birthplace of our nation. The Constitutional lets visitors to Philadelphia step back in time to see where The Declaration of Independence and The United States Constitution were created. The 3-mile outdoor journey features more than 37 historical sites in the Independence Mall area, including the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall and the National Constitution Center.
BUSINESS CHALLENGE: Develop a comprehensive, easy to use and interactive Web site showcasing Philadelphia's historic treasures to the world. The Constitutional needed a hosting solution and systems administration service that was very affordable, always available, and extremely secure.
LINUXFORCE SOLUTION: LinuxForce's Web Hosting and systems administration based on the Debian GNU/Linux OS run The Constitutional website. The system is configured to meet The Constitutional's initial requirements and to scale to support future growth and development as one of the key players in the Independence Mall area ecosystem.
RESULTS: The Constitutional Walking Tour of Philadelphia Web site is successfully providing visitors with answers to their questions prior to their visits and with maps and site descriptions to them through Philadelphia's historic area around Independence Mall.
NOTABLE QUOTABLE:
"LinuxForce has been a cost effective and cost efficient outsourced
solution provider for The Constitutional. As The Constitutional is a
non-profit corporation, it is important to control costs. LinuxForce
enables us to keep costs down while maintaining a service that is always
available online to our customers. By engaging LinuxForce to host our
Web site and to perform the necessary system administration tasks, we
were able to devote our internal resources to building partnerships
with various constituents in the Independence Mall area including
the new National Constitution Center. LinuxForce is very customer
focused, and they make themselves available to us when we have a simple
question or complex application need, plus we no longer worry about The
Constitutional's Web site going down since they are always proactively
monitoring our systems."
- Jonathan Bari, Chairman, The Constitutional Foundation
