UtilityServe Launches Hosting Service
August 21, 2006 — (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Utility computing hosting provider UtilityServe (utilityserve.com), a new division of Web host ServePath (servepath.com) claimed last week at the LinuxWorld Conference & Expo that it has released the first true utility computing service.
Based on a new grid operating system, UtilityServe enables customers to use browsers to build, deploy, manage and scale Web applications on demand, and pay only for the computing resources they need. By eliminating the resource and cost barriers associated with owning and maintaining hardware infrastructure, UtilityServe says it enables customers to focus on providing applications and growing their businesses.
“UtilityServe offers many advantages over the state-of-the-art in colocation and dedicated servers,” says John Keagy, president of UtilityServe. “As the newest division of ServePath, one of the original pioneers in another revolutionary server outsourcing movement, dedicated servers, UtilityServe is positioned to once again advance the industry with dramatic further improvements in scalability, flexibility, and improved costs.”
The UtilityServe hosting service enables IT managers, open source enablers, software-as-a-Service and Web 2.0 start-ups to easily run and scale existing Web applications, add and remove resources, and pay only for the memory resources they use to run applications. The service is available in three packages starting at $99.00 per month.
