Plat&s;Home Co., Ltd. is an IT company located in Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan. Its main businesses are private brand servers, storage solutions, appliance servers, MicroServers (palm-sized Linux servers) and related products and software. It is also a leader in open source computing in Japan, and has been a reseller of FreeBSD and Linux distributions as well as developing its own Linux distribution SSD/Linux (specialized for use with the Plat&s;Home MicroServers). The company started in 1993 as a reseller for computer hardware as well as Linux and FreeBSD distributions, and later BeOS. To broaden the scope beyond just bringing foreign technology to Japan, Plat&s;Home introduced the first server line under its own brand in 1996 and has since specialized in appliance servers and storage solutions. In 2000, Plat&s;Home delved into a new market by introducing the OpenBlockS, the first model of its palm-sized high-durability MicroServer line. In the same year the company went public at the Tokyo Stock Exchange Mothers market. In 2005 the Plat&s;Home head office moved into Akihabara Daibiru, the new beacon of the Tokyo Akihabara district. With the move, Plat&s;Home became a part of Akihabara Crossfield, an initiative for academic-industrial partnership. As the first fruit of the cooperation, Plat&s;Home has become "First Partner" for SoftEther, developer of the VPN software PacketiX VPN.
