Web Hosting For Dummies® Now Available

For Dummies® announces Web Hosting For Dummies (Wiley, 978-1-118-54057-2, May 2013, US $24.99), a complete guide for bloggers, small business owners, and web designers and developers that want to either make the leap from a hosted to self-hosted service, or unlock the powerful web hosting tools they have been paying for but never utilized. In a straightforward and fun language that has defined the For Dummies® series for over 20 years, author Peter Pollock reveals the ins and outs of self-hosting a website and all of the functionality that most users never access.

For many new users, there’s a layer of complexity that prevents them from moving to a dedicated web hosting service or using the existing service to its fullest. “All of the different names, ‘Web hosting’, ‘website hosting’, ‘self hosting,’ or ‘blog hosting,’ can be confusing at first. However, they all mean that you have complete control of how your website is made available to the world,” said Pollock.

Inside Web Hosting For Dummies, Pollock uses simple, easy-to-understand language, to break down all the functions of web hosting for self-hosted users, from setting up new e-mail accounts to backing up and securing a website, analyzing server logs, choosing a platform to install and more. Coverage also includes clear explanations of more complex topics such as working with FTP clients, backing up and securing sites, understanding domains and DNS and using built-in databases.

Web Hosting For Dummies helps readers take charge of their own web hosting and having fun in the process. The book is now available for purchase online and at retailers nationwide in both print and all e-book formats. For a full list of retailers, visit http://www.dummies.com/buy/9781118540572.

Nebula launches enterprise cloud computer

Nebula®, the cloud systems company, today announced the general availability of Nebula One™, the world’s first enterprise cloud computer.

Nebula One was built from the ground up to power the next generation of big data, web, and mobile applications – while addressing enterprise security and management requirements and avoiding vendor lock-in.

Nebula One is a turnkey private cloud system that provides compute, network and storage services through a simple self-service interface and popular APIs, using industry-standard servers from vendors such as HP, IBM, and Dell.

“The Nebula One delivers on Nebula’s mission to democratize cloud computing by bringing the simplicity, agility, and operational efficiency of the world’s largest Internet companies to all enterprises at a fraction of the cost of public cloud services,” said Chris C. Kemp, co-founder and CEO of Nebula.

Previous cloud solutions often required users to put in hours of work to provision and maintain their computing environment. The Nebula One private cloud system frees the organization to focus on applications instead of infrastructure.

Market-leading enterprises have been testing early versions of Nebula’s product for the past year. In many industries, advances in infrastructure are driving the need for a new generation of computing technology that is an order of magnitude more efficient than what’s available today. With the Nebula One,the ability to deploy pre-certified servers from vendors that customers already trust replaces the need for expensive, specialized computing infrastructure.

PARC has selected Nebula to power their private cloud infrastructure. “PARC researchers can now use and reuse the readily-available compute resources they need from the Nebula One cloud, provisioning in minutes what once took days to manually provision or months to procure,” said Walt Johnson, Vice President, Intelligent Systems Lab, PARC.

The Product

At the core of the Nebula One cloud system is the Nebula Cloud Controller™, a hardware appliance that turns racks of certified industry-standard servers into a scalable on-premise infrastructure-as-a-service cloud system. Nebula One runs Cosmos, Nebula’s distributed enterprise cloud operating system, which builds on OpenStack to provide a rich self-service user experience and compatibility with Amazon Web Services and OpenStack APIs.

While a single-rack deployment is enough for many medium-sized businesses, the Nebula One system can scale to multi-rack deployments to meet the needs of large enterprises.

The Nebula One is available for purchase today. For more information, and to learn more about purchasing a Nebula One system, visit www.nebula.com

CopperEgg.com Announces Server Monitoring Service

CopperEgg Corp., the real-time analytics company announced. RevealCloud Pro(tm), their unified server monitoring service, gives IT and development teams a consistent and unified view of all servers under management, physical and virtual, both in the cloud and in the data center.

An infrastructure-aware, SaaS-based server monitoring solution, RevealCloud Pro enables clients to accelerate and ensure the delivery of services and applications deployed in the public cloud, across public and private clouds, and in hybrid environments or physical environments (hosted or on-premise). It provides real-time, in-depth insight into all the components participating in application service delivery, which is critical for monitoring changing loads as well as identifying, isolating and addressing performance issues before service quality is impacted. RevealCloud Pro supports server monitoring in Windows, Linux, Mac OSX and FreeBSD environments.

In today’s high-intensity internet environment, even a temporary application hiccup or delay can cause users to desert the site, causing lost revenue and/or productivity. Server and cloud monitoring using RevealCloud Pro provides split-second performance monitoring of the operating and service metrics for critical application processes and hardware. This enables IT and development teams to accelerate time to market during the development phase, optimize deployments as they learn customer usage patterns, and identify early warning signs of service degradation.

“Almost everyone has servers in multiple locations these days and in multiple security contexts,” said Headspring chief operating officer Jeffrey Palermo. “With RevealCloud Pro we can quickly and easily set up monitoring for servers in disparate locations and instantly get reporting on health in a single dashboard. This greatly reduces our risk because it alerts us to a problem and even a potential problem with a server the moment it happens so we can address it before it impacts our internal team or a customer.”

“As more organizations build and manage business-critical applications within or across clouds, virtual machines and physical servers, it has become critical to have a real-time, scalable, multi-platform solution in place to monitor all aspects of service delivery quality. Server monitoring and application performance management in real-time with high-resolution (seconds, not minutes!) is only one aspect of managing service delivery, but it is foundational,” said CopperEgg CEO Scott Johnson. “RevealCloud Pro is quickly gaining traction with our customers deploying and managing services from the public cloud as well as physical data centers. With the addition of Windows server monitoring, RevealCloud Pro now offers a unified view of all servers in-cloud and on-premise, which has been frequently requested by our customers deploying hybrid solutions.”

Core Benefits of CopperEgg Server Monitoring

Monitoring of servers across different environments, including cloud, virtual and physical servers, enabling administrators to compare and benchmark performance with ease.
Installation in seconds with no configuration required. Users just copy and paste a single command into their systems to get immediate server monitoring.
Monitoring of server performance with 10X greater resolution than legacy server monitoring solutions, resulting in:
1) Detection of short-duration performance-degrading spikes (CPU and memory utilization, network I/O, storage capacity, CPU wait index, and blocked processes), undetectable using Legacy monitoring solutions.
2) Historical insight – provides drilldown, tracking and analysis capabilities of every aspect of system performance over custom periods up to 30 days to uncover trends and gain valuable insight into the determinants of service quality.
3) Resource optimization – provides more accurate auditing and accounting of resource utilization related to cloud and service vendor service-level agreements.

Immediate alerts – custom settings allow users to set thresholds for alerts and direct them to individuals or groups as applicable for instant insight into the health of a system.
A tailored viewing of servers has a top systems view so users can see the whole infrastructure in a sortable top level view or can tag and group systems as needed for optimal monitoring.
Enables server monitoring from any browser including PC, Mac, iPad, iPhone, Android or other mobile device.
Pay-for-consumption customers can currently sign up for $15 of free server monitoring credit with CopperEgg’s RevealCloud Pro.

Website Hosting Plans Site Relaunched

The Website Hosting Plans website has been re-launched with extra content offered in a easier to use format. This now provides everything people new to the subject need to know of about web hosting.

Website Hosting Plans recently re-launched their website which gives assistance, to consumers and businesses, to find the best website hosting company for them. The site had become too extensive for its earlier layout and has recently been enhanced so that information is available in a user friendly format such that that someone new to web hosting can rapidly grasp what they need to know. A great deal of the information is produced by in house authority, Andy Nataghi, with the support of selected third party articles. The website is aimed at non-technical people and provides information and guidance without getting too much into the technical details.

Andy said “Deciding on a Web Hosting Package is not simple. There are numerous companies providing comparable services but some are superior to the rest. It is important to make the right choice at the outset as the last thing that you want to have to do is change companies later”.

There are a considerable amount of web hosting vendors and selecting between them can be difficult, especially as the basic service is the same. It is only subsequent to signing up that a customer is able to find out how good the service really is and whether or not the technical support is satisfactory.

This is hard enough for individuals but is crucial to get this correct for business owners particularly if they are selling from their website. No one wishes their website to be unavailable for long intervals or their pages to load slowly.

Matters on which extensive information is available includes:

* Kinds of Web Hosting – Which people require Windows and which should go for Linux.
* Form of Product – Different levels of service from basic shared hosting to cloud hosting including particular services for eCommerce sites.
* Hosting Expressions – A look at the advertising and marketing along with technical terminology frequently seen, e.g. what is the real meaning of “unlimited”?
* Registering a Domain Name – Is it best to make use of the hosting provider?
* Choosing a Website Hosting Company – How to go about finding the best service.
* Starting a Website – Explaining how easily this can be achieved through use of a tool such as WordPress (with the right hosting company).
About Us: Website Hosting Plans is a website produced and maintained by Andy Nataghi and is dedicated to providing information on web hosting and reviews of web hosting companies.
