April 9, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Layered Technologies (layeredtech.com) and grid and utility computing services provider 3Tera (3tera.com) announced on Thursday the launch of virtual private data centers, a new utility computing service for software-as-a-service and Web 2.0 companies.

Powered by 3Tera's AppLogic grid operating system and operated by Layered Tech's new TheGridLayer division, VPD eliminate the need for colocation, private racks and managed services by enabling subscribers to assemble, deploy and manage Internet-scale infrastructure and applications using only a browser and basic IT skills. It enables companies to gain the ability to deploy existing applications without modifying code, scale applications from a fraction of a server to dozens of servers in minutes and add or remove servers and storage without disrupting applications.

"We've partnered closely with Layered Technologies because they share our vision of utility computing," says Vlad Miloushev, president and CEO of 3Tera. "VPD combine Layered's world-class expertise in running over 12,000 servers with our cutting-edge grid technology to fundamentally change the way people build and operate Internet-scale infrastructure. Developers can now focus on building applications instead of configuring hardware, installing software, moving data or modifying code. With the VPD, all they need in order to have complete control of their applications is a browser and basic IT skills."

TheGridLayer VPD is available immediately in bronze, silver and gold versions and pricing starts at $999 per month for a four-node Bronze system,

Layered Technologies also recently announced it has renewed its partnership with online gaming company Cyber Evolution for the 2007 online gaming season.
