IBM said Thursday it is now offering over 30 new Web hosting packages aimed primarily at
the small-to-medium business market. The fully-managed programs provide pre-packaged,
ready-to-operate services for both e-commerce security and infrastructure, the company said.

"We're making these (packages) more to be off-the-shelf services," IBM program director of
application hosting services Paul Boulay told the E-Commerce Times. "You determine, based
on your customer engagements, what the requirements are for the packaged options."

Hey why send all the ecommerce business to IBM? There are other innovative companies out there that provide small and medium sized businesses with prepackaged e-business software with full ecommerce and catalogueing capabilities to rival IBM's new launch.
