Overview:
Deploying a cloud server is easy with GoGrid. Simply select a server image and a server size (based on RAM) and you’ll be up and running in minutes.  Their server images use standard Windows or Linux Operating Systems with full root/administrator access, giving us the freedom to configure your cloud server however we’d like.

Features:
GoGrid is the only cloud operator to provide a true hybrid hosting infrastructure, which lets you build server networks that combine the elasticity of cloud computing with the control of physical servers via a web-based control panel.  GoGrid Dedicated Servers are available on your cloud VLAN and can be load-balanced the same as cloud servers and can connect to your GoGrid Cloud Storage.

With GoGrid, you can deploy Linux (and/or Windows) cloud servers instantly with just the click of a mouse and you’ll only pay for the deployed RAM and data transfer that you actually use. GoGrid is the only cloud provider that gives you the flexibility to choose between Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2003.

Summary:Cloud Hosting and Hybrid  Hosting Network Diagram
From Windows Server 2008 with SQL Server to Linux RedHat with PHP, Apache and MySQL we offer a wide variety of standard OS installs and common software packages and give you full root / administrator access.  One really nice thing is that GoGrid has partnered with dozens of companies to provide us with a full suite of server images created and mainted by their partner community. Some of their partner server images come prebundled with popular software and applications, others provide development and testing solutions, or disaster recovery and backup solutions, or cloud management solutions, and some provide solutions for cloud server security & monitoring.

    They will try to salvage a dead instance, but you should have a backup and the means to restore it on a new machine ready, in the end, it is much easier than the alternative.

    I do agree with the ranking of gogrid. They are definitely one of the top 5 providers of Cloud Hosting in the industry today. My list would look like this:

    1) Gigenetcloud.com
    2) Rackspacecloud.com
    3) Wiredtree.com
    4) Gogrid.com
    5) SymetrIQ

    Gogrid is definitely worth it.

    GoGrid, which is based on a per-hour RAM-based usage billing model, is a new approach to rapid vertical and horizontal server scalability. GoGrid customers can migrate their server infrastructure within ServePath’s managed and hosted server network to gain the kind of flexibility, economies and security that so many companies cannot otherwise achieve, says the company.

    With seven years of server and colocation experience, ServePath says it delivers the ideal environment for GoGrid’s innovative servers as a service product. Powered by an AJAX-based Web GUI, GoGrid enables customers to deploy new Web and database servers, add and configure load balancers and monitor memory and transfer charges in real-time.

    Combined with its grid and Xen-based virtualized infrastructure, GoGrid delivers true on-demand scalability with its high-performance hosting services, says the company. The flexible and cost-effective solution is designed for start-ups, development sites, Web 2.0 and e-commerce companies.

    Customers can customize the number of servers deployed on their GoGrid with pre-packaged data transfer plans and RAM-based utility billing. This separation of RAM and data transfer plans enables GoGrid customers to choose the best combination of hosting services in terms of cost-effectiveness and scalability.

    I was pretty happy with the service I recieved, but really wanted to go with Rackspace…it is just soooo expensive. I found a better solution though by moving to

    http://www.coverthosting.com

    I started out running my site using linux, but just switched to windows right from my Control Panel! It is great, the price is even better, and the support is superb.

    GoGrid will be missed though but not too much
