“Cobalt Networks, Inc., a developer of server appliances today
introduced the RaQ 3i, Cobalt’s third-generation server appliance.
The RaQ 3i offers a full suite of Internet services with remote
administration capabilities, prepackaged in a single rack-unit
height, industry standard design. The RaQ 3i expands Cobalt’s RaQ
server appliance product line by providing a larger, more powerful
platform and broader availability of partner applications. The
array of solutions available for the RaQ 3i will make it an ideal
appliance platform for high-traffic Web portals, e-commerce, and
application hosting.
RaQ 3i customers and developers can build
on leading edge Web and Internet technologies from industry leaders
including Intershop, Oracle, OpenMarket, Miva, RSA, Sane Solutions,

“The new Cobalt RaQ 3i delivers a compelling server appliance
platform for Intershop commerce products,” said Ed Callan, Vice

provide the core web publishing, email, and file transfer services
