Edge Hosting Unveils Fourth Generation of Advanced CloudPlus™ [...]

📅 July 28, 2015 - Edge Hosting, a national provider of secure, scalable and dependable managed hosting services, today unveiled the fourth generation of their CloudPlus™ infrastructure, CloudPlus4, for public cloud, private cloud and hybrid hosting configuration environments.

“As cloud adoption continues rapid acceleration, it's more important than ever for cloud solutions to deliver more than cores and gigs. The cloud must deliver the customer outcomes,” said Vlad Friedman, Founder and CEO at Edge Hosting. “When designing our fourth generation cloud, we threw out the book, leveraged 17 years of mission critical hosting experience and built CloudPlus™ to eliminate the barriers that exist between cloud and physical hosting solutions.”

CloudPlus™ combines Cisco UCS blade infrastructure, high performance SSD storage, Cisco Nexus networking with VMware and bundles solutions for DevOps automation, comprehensive monitoring, and security tools generally only available to three letter clandestine agencies or fortune 500s.

With a new data breach announced on a weekly basis, Edge opted to include comprehensive security in its base offering including firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention for all customers. Having the right base, allows for an easy upgrade to critical workloads to comply with the strict regulations of HIPAA, PCI, FedRAMP, SSAE 16 SOC 2 Type II, and EU Safe harbor.

Edge Hosting's goal is to help customers leverage their infrastructure, experience and people to help them Stay up, and Sleep More™. The forth generation of CloudPlus™ includes the following key features:

Workload portability between dedicated, physical, public and private cloud. Spin up any type of server and seamlessly transition it to another computing platform based on your needs.
Auto-scaling your servers based on real time utilization. Scale up, down or out.
Flexible storage performance tiers and backup options include file-based backups.
Disaster recovery
Deep visibility into capacity planning, performance, and security
A 24/7/365 U.S. based technical support team that ensures uptime to the application, not just the infrastructure.

“Our latest cloud offering is only the beginning of what we have in store,” said Mike Altman, COO at Edge Hosting. “We're listening to the marketplace and delivering cloud solutions that align with the needs of any business for whom the cost of downtime exceeds the cost of uptime.

The strength of Edge Hosting's CloudPlus™ environment was further confirmed after being one of the very first providers to achieve FedRAMP certification awarded by the Federal Government to secure confidential data.

Edge Hosting's philosophy is to provide the most secure, scalable and dependable managed hosting experience to customers. This approach is the main reason why so many businesses migrate to Edge Hosting for their cloud and dedicated managed hosting needs.
