ATLANTA – October 21, 2010 —Internap Network Services Corporation (NASDAQ:INAP, news, filings), a leading provider of end-to-end Internet business products and services,today announced that Jolokia Networks, an innovative hosting and virtualization provider, has selected Internap’s XIP™ with route-optimized Performance IP™, to improve Web performance for Jolokia’s worldwide customers. These customers include Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) companies, software developers, cloud-based providers and other organizations with high levels of bandwidth consumption.

For example, a customer in Scotland has seen its website performance nearly double in speed over previous levels,” said Mark Pace, chief technology officer at Jolokia Networks. “As a provider of both content delivery and hosting services, we serve a specialized customer base that requires an optimal Internet experience. The combination of Internap’s advanced IP routing capabilities and XIP gives us a competitive edge.”

Performance IP delivers traffic across the best path among numerous global carrier networks with patented Managed Internet Route Optimizer™ (MIRO) technology.
