Web Host CentriLogic Offers First Canada-based Cloud Service

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Web hosting provider CentriLogic (www.centrilogic.com) announced on Wednesday it has launched what it says is the first international, multi-infrastructure cloud computing service (www.centrilogic.com/cloud) based in Canada.

The new enterprise-class cloud provides a secure and scalable on-demand computing infrastructure enabling organizations.

It enhances CentriLogic’s suite of hosting and managed services including colocation, private and managed hosting, data management, security, network and professional services.

Using resources housed initially in CentriLogic’s Mississauga, Ontario data center, which opened last April, the new multi-infrastructure cloud supports organizations that need to collect and process data while addressing cross-border regulatory concerns.

“Today’s enterprise customers require the power, flexibility and availability of an on-demand cloud computing infrastructure,” says Robert Offley, CEO of CentriLogic. “With the adoption of cloud computing and SaaS, organizations are becoming concerned about regulatory compliance issues based on the geographical location of their data and applications. CentriLogic has responded by providing the first distributed cloud computing service based in Canada, so that customers have the choice of location while benefitting from a scalable and secure computing infrastructure. By deploying the Enomaly Elastic Computing Platform, we are able to construct and manage multiple, geography-specific clouds across our data center facilities and networks in Canada and the US.”

CentriLogic’s new cloud service lets customers access and manage any number of virtual servers operating on Microsoft Windows or Linux through a web-based dashboard, as well as automatically scale up and down their use of cloud servers through a web-based API.

Built on the Enomaly Elastic Computing Platform, the new cloud can be used to host websites, power internal business applications, and provide burst capacity to meet peak loads for existing systems.

The company’s US-based cloud is currently being offered to select customers and will be publicly launched this summer.
