DYNAMIC NET INC. PARTNERS WITH CLOUD LINUX INC. TO DELIVER INCREASED STABILITY AND PERFORMANCE ACROSS ITS HOSTING INFRASTRUCTURE

Posted by vanessa on June 30th, 2010

Princeton, NJ, June 30, 2010CloudLinux Inc., an innovative software company dedicated to serving the needs of hosting service providers, announces today that Dynamic Net, Inc., a full service hosting services provider, will integrate CloudLinux across its hosting infrastructure. Dynamic Net Inc. offers a full suite of hosting services including domain name registration, Cloud Linuxshared hosting, Virtual Private Servers (VPS), dedicated hosting, as well as managed and unmanaged dedicated servers and co-location. Selected for its new innovative Lightweight Virtual Environment™(LVE) technology, Dynamic Net Inc. will deploy CloudLinux to increase its ability to deliver stability, reliability and a higher level of customer service to its customers.

“Dynamic Net is focused on providing superior service to our customers, both large and small,” states Dynamic Net Inc.,Chief Steward Peter Abraham. “By forging alliances and partnerships with companies such as Cloud Linux, we are able toDynamicNetdeliver the most innovative and highest performance solutions for our customers.”

CloudLinux’s core technology is Lightweight Virtual Environment™ a kernel-level technology that limits the amount of resources (CPU, I/O, memory) available to a group of processes. While similar to container type virtualization technology, LVE is completely transparent and lightweight. Once installed, the LVE works transparently to manage resources that the hosting provider sets for the accounts on a server. It controls the CPU resources to ensure that each account on a shared server is allocated enough resources to run efficiently without jeopardizing the other tenants on that server, making the server more stable and delivering better performance.

With LVE, CloudLinux can deliver performance, reliability and operational benefits for hosting providers including:

  • Increased density and capability per server without increasing risk

  • More efficient and stable servers

  • Reduced impact of unpredictable events like load spikes that can take down or slow down a server

  • Reduced operational costs related to hardware, electricity, datacenter space and management costs

  • Better utilization of existing infrastructure

Dynamic Net delivers fully managed services along with facility and non-facility based managed services. With such a diverse customer base, they need to provide customers with:

  • Increased uptime so that no one account can slow down or take down an entire shared server
  • Better reliability and performance with a server that is running at peak operating capacity
  • Compatibility with all major control panels for easy management
  • Protection from hackers and poorly written scripts that drain resources, cause outages and impact productivity

“Dynamic Net will be able to take advantage of the unique solution that CloudLinux provides, ensuring competitive advantages over other hosting providers,” states Igor Seletskiy, Cloud Linux Founder and CEO. ”With our proven technology, service providers achieve higher performance and increased stability which equates to ultimately providing a higher level of service and support to their clients.”

With LVE, hosting providers like Dynamic Net now have the tools to control the CPU and IO demands of individual tenants, so that a single site cannot slow or take down a whole server and provide customers with the easy management and solid solutions they need to stay ahead in business.

CloudLinux is priced to support all types of hosting providers. For shared hosting providers, CloudLinux is available at a tiered retail monthly price based on the number of servers under management. The CloudLinux Partner Program offers discounts and more competitive pricing and a support model designed to meet the specific requirements of hosting companies as well as an opportunity to leverage the CloudLinux brand.

Cartika Increases Density by 5X while Improving Uptime and Performance With CloudLinux

Posted by vanessa on June 3rd, 2010

New Case Study Reveals the Benefits Behind CloudLinux

Princeton, NJ, June 3, 2010Cloud Linux Inc., an innovative software company dedicated to serving the needs of hosting Cloud Linuxservice providers, today announces that Cartika, an industry innovator in cloud hosting services has increased density on its shared hosting servers by 5X using CloudLinux. During a recent server upgrade project, Cartika deployed CloudLinux to help improve the density of its shared hosting infrastructure. After deployment, not only did Cartika increase density and consolidate servers on a ratio of 5 to 1, but were also able to improve uptime and performance. Cloud Linux has released a case study, which chronicles the project and progress achieved during Cartika’s project.

The results of Cartika’s upgrade project further prove the value of the stability and control CloudLinux can give hosting service providers over the server environment for more efficient and profitable operations. CloudLinux invented the Lightweight Virtual Environment™ a kernel-level technology that limits the amount of resources (CPU, I/O, memory) available to a specific process or customer. LVE isolates specific hardware resources in a lightweight container and prevents one tenant on a shared server from affecting others – especially due to a sudden peak load from a single tenant.

“CloudLinux has not only helped us improve the density out of our existing infrastructure, but also helped us realize significantcost savings in other ways,” states Andrew Rouchotas, CEO of Cartika.. “There were significant benefits that helped us save real costs in electricity and cooling but also savings in staff time that allowed us to focus our efforts on revenue generating activities and growing our business.”

By deploying CloudLinux, Cartika maximized its hardware consolidation efforts and improved server density and stability. CloudLinux increased the number of accounts hosted on one server and improved the consolidation efforts – so that now no one account can take down the entire server. Server stability also improved by allowing Cartika to set resource limits on their shared hosting customers without sacrificing uptime or performance. In addition, the Cartika hardware upgrade gave their customers more processing power.

“We are proud to see the real value that CloudLinux is able to deliver to hosting providers, as it shows the benefits of having full control over the hosting environment,” said Igor Seletskiy, Cloud Linux Inc. Founder and CEO.

The results of Cartika’s deployment of CloudLinux were:

  • Increased density by 5X while improving uptime and processing power

  • Reduced overall hardware footprint

  • Improved ROI so they could leverage new hardware available for shared hosting

  • Reduced risks of unpredictable events taking down an entire server

  • Empowered front line technicians to diagnose and solve problems
