Compuware has launched a dedicated service for cloud computing users.  Their cloud technology (known as Cloudsleuth) will help “assess response times from various cloud providers.”

“We’re going to be adding features between now and the official launch,” said Richard Stone, Compuware’s solutions manager for cloud computing.  Stone said that one of the key aspects of the site was to demonstrate that the Internet was not some sort of flat terrain, with the same level of accessibility for everyone.”The Internet is not flat, and you don’t get the same sort of experience everywhere you go.

Apparently it helps to determine load speed and location “It’s not quite real-time, it takes a couple of minutes to re-load,” he said, “but it’s near enough. But it also provides location-based reports from where you actually are.”

Later Stone added that the site will be free, adding that Compuware will not be collecting any identifiable personal information. “We want to encourage people to sign up – the whole purpose of the community is that the community builds it.”

“Ubuntu Web Server on Cloud Hosting is cheaper and more manageable  vs Dedicated Server Hosting, at least in my opinion from previous experience” stated Joe Hobot about his recent discovery of cloud servers.  Later he stated that “Anyway, my topic was Ubuntu Web Server and Cloud Computing…ah..Yes! I love Linux been Linux user for almost 10 years now. Fast forwarding the story, I bought Cloud Hosting Service which was $10 per month and 1.5c per Hour for fully built server. You can install any kind of Linux Distribution: Red Hat, Ubuntu, CentOS, Suse etc… and Windows Server was 3c per hour.”  Ubuntu cloud hosting is the way to go!

Your monthly cost for a cloud server is$10 for membership, and about $10 for server, that’s $20 to have fully installed cloud server, you manage it, and has no restrictions.

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

Managed hosting provider Peak 10 announced on Wednesday that its Cloud Plus services have seen huge growth.  Cloud Plus is available in both enterprise and private versions, with Enterprise Cloud Plus delivering services per virtual machine from multiple hosted clusters.

Their Enterprise Cloud Plus used to deliver public cloud like services in a Hosted model. Services are delivered per VM and take advantage of the multi-tenant model with resource pooling, dynamic load sharing, redundant infrastructure, and more.

“We have been offering fully hosted services for years on both physical and virtual platforms, shared and dedicated,” says Monty Blight, the vice president of managed services at Peak 10. “The cloud was a natural evolution of that service and has been widely accepted by our customers and has seen rapid growth.”

The Web host says  “broad experience, early entry into the field, and beta work with key cloud vendors makes it a resource for organizations looking to move into the cloud.”
