Primarily, our admin section (log in with username 'demo' and password 'demo') highlights our collection of easy to use web applications, affectionately dubbed 'Sprockets.' Poke around, have fun, and look at how everything works. These sprockets come ready to use out of the box, with no complicated setup on your side.

eMphasys is an ardent promoter and active participant in the OpenSource Technology movement. While we make use a variety of commercial technologies, we prefer to focus on standards-based software... Linux/UNIX, Apache, Perl, PHP/Zend, and mySQL... to drive our business systems. In the end, this translates to more reliable systems based on widely-accepted standards with a lower cost of entry.

eMphasys hosts web and email services at our Level 3 Communications co-location facility in Dallas. Qwest, BBN, and UUNet are our primary upstream Tier 1 providers. We run VALinux and Dell servers, often with RAID 5 disk systems and redundant power supplies. All are battery-backed and sitting on a switched 100-MB Cisco backplane, running UNIX and Linux.
