Vexxhost has launched Cloud Sites, a new cPanel-powered service
Cloud hosting provider Vexxhost announced on Thursday it has launched Cloud Sites, a new cPanel-powered service that delivers “highly redundant, ultra-fast, and instantly scalable cloud hosting.”
The move comes a few months after Vexxhost launched its cloud reseller API and modules, which includes a WHMCS module that allows any company to offer cloud servers in a white-label environments.
Vexxhost’s new Cloud Sites service is a cPanel cloud hosting solution that runs individual accounts in isolated virtual containers.
The service offers allocated hardware resources, including RAM, CPU, and disk space, which improves the overall performance of customers’ websites and applications.
“Cloud Sites combines the power and reliability of cloud hosting with the convenience of a managed service,” said Mohammed Naser, CEO at Vexxhost. “Customers can sign up for an affordable Cloud Sites plan to maximize website performance, choosing a service with the cloud cycles required. Our optimized platform then has an immediate, measurable impact on page loading and application processing times. Meanwhile, our expert team takes care of server configuration and management, allowing customers to focus on their businesses, instead of working with their hosting plan. This is the first time technology like this has been available as part of a web hosting plan.”
The service’s scalable redundant storage is able to “heal” itself in the event of failure, assuring customers that their website will always remain online.
Cloud Sites’ entire infrastructure is designed for optimal performance, equipped with web servers that can handle up to 20 times more connections than standard web hosting accounts, high availability file storage, and a static content offloading system .
Vexxhost is also including website performance tool CloudFlare Railgun for free to Cloud Sites customers.
The Cloud Sites service includes more than 200 web applications, an automated script installer, $200 in marketing credits, and 24-hour monitoring and support.
Customers can select from tiered cloud hosting plans and also receive free expert migration to get their cloud site online.
