(The Hosting News) – Infinitely Virtual has now released Ubuntu 9.10 preloaded on all Virtual Dedicated Server products–an upgrade from Infinitely Virtual’s previous use of Ubuntu 8.10. The Ubuntu operating system is free and contains all of the applications one may need– web browser, office suite, media apps, instant messaging and more, and is an open-source alternative to Windows and Microsoft Office. Some of the new Ubuntu 9.10 features include: a faster, more streamlined interface; tools which ease the creation and deployment of apps for Ubuntu; full commercial support from Canonical; and the introduction of the personal cloud in which users can store and share files and contacts easily with Ubuntu One.

Ubuntu 9.10 also offers its Server Edition, which provides the performance and security of Linux for the enterprise servers. Ubuntu Server Edition easily integrates with a user’s existing networks while providing a low total cost of ownership. The Server Edition goes further to offer multiple life cycle scenarios for users to choose from, and is supported by free life maintenance.

The addition of Ubuntu 9.10 preloaded on all Virtual Dedicated Server products takes Infinitely Virtual farther in its mission of delivering reliable and energy efficient virtual technology services to clients at the industry’s lowest prices.

Houston, Texas – (The Hosting News) – July 15, 2009 – The Cloud Servers API beta solution has premiered at web hosting provider, Rackspace Hosting, as part of the company’s Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offering.

The service provides inexpensive compute capacity that can be instantly sized allowing businesses to pay only for
what it uses – as needed. Through the open, standards-based API, Rackspace Cloud customers can now manage their cloud infrastructure with greater control and flexibility. The API, for example, enables elastic scenarios as users can write code that programmatically detects load and scales the number of server instances up and down.

The Rackspace Cloud solicited feedback and conducted intensive testing with its partners and cloud developers to help ensure that the community shaped the API. With today’s announcement, users now have control panel and programmatic access to the company’s cloud infrastructure services.

Michael Mayo, iPhone application developer noted, ”It’s been a great experience to collaborate with the Rackspace Cloud team on the development of the Cloud Servers API. Working together with the Rackspace team enabled me to develop my application much more quickly. I’m very pleased with the open feedback process as it makes my work a lot easier.”

The Cloud Servers API will introduce four new features including:

- Server Metadata – Supply server-specific metadata when an instance is created that can be accessed via the API.

- Server Data Injection – Specify files when instance is created that will be injected into the server file system before startup. This is useful, for example, when inserting SSH keys, setting configuration files, or storing data that you want to retrieve from within the Cloud Server itself.

- Host Identification – The Cloud Servers provisioning algorithm has an anti-affinity property that attempts to spread out customer VMs across hosts. Under certain situations, Cloud Servers from the same customer may be placed on the same host. Host identification allows you to programmatically detect this condition and take appropriate action.

- Shared IP Groups – While Rackspace has always supported shared IPs, it’s been made simpler with the creation of Shared IP Groups and the ability to enable high availability configurations.

Rackspace Cloud customers will be able to manage their Cloud Servers or Cloud Files accounts anytime, anywhere on their iPhones thanks to an application built off the APIs by developer Michael Mayo. The application is expected to be available in the App Store within a month.

With the API, developers can create applications for the Rackspace Cloud which can automatically access compute power as required. The Cloud Servers API also allows developers to work with partners on pre-built applications.

David Day, CTO, Zeus Technology offered, ”After testing, it is apparent the Cloud Servers API was created to meet the needs of the community. The REST API has a complete feature set and is easy to use. We are excited to be building on such a robust platform.”

Emil Sayegh, General Manager, The Rackspace Cloud added, ”With the launch of our API, we’re looking forward to working with our partners and the developer community to create a powerful cloud ecosystem which we believe will generate new tools and applications to make cloud hosting even easier and more efficient. We see programmatic control as essential for igniting an ecosystem around the Rackspace Cloud. It’s a key tool for generating the next big thing in cloud because it gives developers the power and control to bring their great ideas to fruition.”

The Cloud Servers API is implemented using a RESTful web service interface. Aiming to build a cohesive approach to all products in the Rackspace Cloud suite, Cloud Servers shares a common token authentication system that allows seamless access between products and services.

Launched earlier this year, Cloud Servers is a compute service that provides server capacity in the cloud to businesses of all sizes and leverages key technology developed by Slicehost, LLC, a Rackspace wholly-owned subsidiary. Until today, interactions with Cloud Servers only occurred via the Rackspace Cloud Control Panel (GUI) and now programmatically via the Cloud Servers API.

The Rackspace Cloud provides on-demand scalable website, application and storage hosting backed by Fanatical Support. Through its suite of cloud solutions, Cloud Sites, Cloud Files and Cloud Servers, The Rackspace Cloud enables astute developers and IT managers to minimize the hassles, upfront investments and high costs associated with dedicated hardware, while offering the ability to easily scale hosting resources.

As the leader and specialist in hosting services, Rackspace Hosting is changing the way businesses worldwide buy IT. Rackspace delivers computing-as-a-service, integrating the industry’s best technologies into a flexible service offering, making computing more reliable and affordable. A trusted partner to companies of all sizes, Rackspace enables IT departments to be more effective. Rackspace is distinguished by its award-winning Fanatical Support, furthering the company’s mission to be one of the world’s greatest service companies. Rackspace is recognized as one of FORTUNE Magazine’s 100 Best companies to work for in the US, ranking number 43 on the list. Rackspace’s portfolio of hosted IT services includes Managed Hosting, Cloud Hosting, and Email and Apps.

Ann Arbor, Michigan – (The Hosting News) – July 1, 2009 – Web hosting service provider and Magento hosting solutions company, NEXCESS.NET has indicated that since the launch of its new Magento SIP hosting plans, which debuted in May, they have become their fastest-selling hosting plan.

Chris Wells, CEO of Nexcess remarked, ”We’ve been really gratified with the feedback. We were sure we’d put together a winning package geared specifically towards clients who were interested in running Magento-based online stores and were happy to see that we’d hit the mark. The popularity of the plans has necessitated adding new SIP servers faster than anticipated. We actually had to scramble a bit at first to keep up with the demand – but we keep plenty of extra hardware at our data center both for SIPs and all our other hosting plans, so there were no fulfillment problems.”

Mr. Wells added, ”Magento is a complex piece of software, and we’ve put a lot of effort into figuring out how to make it run optimally. A lot of our competitors try to run Magento as if it were just another piece of web software. It clearly needs a specialized environment to provide the performance level e-commerce sites require. Customers can really tell a difference when they move to a SIP from a generic one-size-fits-all solution.”

The Magento SIP (Secure Isolated Platform) plans consist of carefully chosen software and hardware which have been extensively tested and optimized to run the Magento e-commerce software as securely and efficiently as possible. The plans have proved popular because they include everything needed to get a Magento web store up and running smoothly, according to Wells.

Nexcess will be expanding their Magento SIP plans in the near future to include the recently released Enterprise edition of the Magento software, and will also offer SIP plans that use load-balanced clusters for very high traffic hosting scenarios.

Mr. Wells concluded, ”We were the first Magento Enterprise hosting partner, and can offer customized hosting packages using the Enterprise software. We’ll be updating our offerings to include Magento Enterprise Edition SIPs very soon.”

NEXCESS.NET is an Ann Arbor, Mich. based company specializing in web hosting solutions, offering a range of services from shared hosting to complex multi-server configurations. NEXCESS.NET provides custom hosting solutions for traffic heavy and high profile websites of all genres. NEXCESS.NET owns and operates its private data center in Dearborn, Michigan and currently services thousands of clients worldwide.
