CloudLinux Founder and CEO, Igor Seletskiy will deliver his first public address at the popular hosting industry conference, the Parallels Summit, on February 23 in Miami, FL. Mr. Seletskiy will debut CloudLinux, the only Linux–based, commercially supported operating system (OS) optimized for shared hosting providers and datacenters. Mr. Seletskiy will address how hosting service providers can squeeze more efficiency from their infrastructure while simultaneously increase profit margins and new revenue opportunities.
In his address, Mr. Seletskiy will discuss how to strike the perfect balance between number of users per server and the load the server can carry, especially when resource hogs and load spikes remain a constant challenge. This challenge is compounded by the foggy visibility administrators have into servers, making it harder for providers to respond efficiently to ever-changing needs. The new CloudLinux OS solves these issues by leveraging its proprietary LVE™ technology.
“I created CloudLinux OS based my previous work developing the H-Sphere Control Panel. I could see the need to give providers a way to control the CPU and IO demands of individual users to achieve high level of server stability,” states Igor Seletskiy, CEO of Cloud Linux Inc. “This work is based on a lot of research that has been done over the years. We went deep into Linux kernel to achieve high level of resource isolation. We also wanted to be able to offer the OS with a professionally staffed, 24/7 support operation and at a low cost for providers. So on behalf of my team and after these many months of hard work, I am proud to be introducing this new technology here at the Parallel’s Summit.”
CloudLinux was founded by Igor Seletskiy who has a 13-year, successful track record of delivering innovative new products to the hosting industry, including: H-Sphere, the first multi-server, commercially available control panel; FreeVPS, a container-based virtualization product; CP+, a simple, single server control panel; WebShell, a web-based file manager and SiteStudio, a browser-based website building tool. CloudLinux builds on Mr. Seletskiy’s extensive understanding of the unique needs of hosting service providers and is now available for download at http://www.cloudlinux.com/download.html.

Managed Hosting Division leads award charge with a hatrick of service nominations whilst Netintelligence is recognised for its e-safety capabilities
The 2010 Award nominations for the annual UK Network Computing awards have been unveiled and iomart Group is delighted to have received finalist award nominations in four different categories.
iomart Hosting leads the way with three nominations in the two Network Project of the Year, Public Sector and Private Sector, categories and is recognised for its work in the overall Service Provider of the Year
iomart’s Netintelligence e-safety hosted service, which is being rolled out as part of the UK Government’s Home Access scheme, picked up a nomination as Service Management Product of the Year.
iomart Hosting’s Public Sector network project category nomination has been awarded for migrating the London School of Economics’ website infrastructure away from an in house facility and replacing it with a fully managed outsourced platform housed within the company’s own data centres.
The Private Sector network project nomination is given for iomart Hosting’s provision of a high availability disaster recovery solution for the Government clients of leading UK digital agency Cimex.
Both project award nominations were made following a review by an editorial judging panel. The eventual winners of the Service Provider of the Year and the Service Management Product of the Year will be selected by the readers of Network Computing.
Angus MacSween, CEO, iomart Group stated: “I am delighted with the Group’s four award nominations at this year’s Network Computing Awards, it is a remarkable achievement and one for which we can be rightly proud. I am especially pleased that we have been recognised for our work in both private and public sector categories as this clearly demonstrates that our commitment to high availability and 100% uptime is essential to any organisation regardless of the market in which they operate.”
The Network Computing Awards were launched to recognise the companies, the products and the services that have most impressed the readers and editorial staff of the UK’s longest established computer networking publication.
The winners will be revealed at a gala awards ceremony on the 4th March at Guoman Tower Hotel, London. The organisers expect the event to be attended by over 600 guests from vendors, distributors, information providers and the media.
The three Network Computing Award nominations cap a fine start to the new year for the Group’s managed hosting arm, iomart Hosting. Last week the company revealed that it was the sole European hosting company included within US based HostReview’s Annual Top 10 Readers Choice Awards, and that it had also finished the decade as “the most popular company” on the UK’s Dedicated Server Directory Top 25 list of major web hosting companies.
Other nominees in the Network Computing Awards include: Cisco, Dell, Juniper Networks, IBM, Avaya and Sun Micro.

CirtexHosting, a leader in Linux Web hosting, announced today it has dropped all bandwidth limits in a momentous overhaul of its entire hosting lineup, a significant move designed to broaden the company’s appeal and ensure it remains a leader in the industry. For the first time in the company’s history, it does not have a single hosting plan with a bandwidth limit.
Unlimited bandwidth Shared Web hosting, which is now offered in five plans, starts at $2.99 per month for 5000 MB of disk space, Colortex cPanel, and a wide variety of other value-added features. Prices were not raised in conjunction with the upgrades, and existing customers are automatically moved to the new, more generous equivalent plan configuration.
“With today’s announcement, we have transformed our entire array of hosting plans into a completely unlimited offering. From our vantage point, the days of fixed bandwidth limits for shared hosting are over, and this represents a major shift in strategy and methodology for our company, and a new era for the industry,” said CirtexHosting President John Xie.
Prior to today’s announcement, CirtexHosting also offered a premium array of unlimited bandwidth hosting plans, starting at $15.99 per month. With the overhaul, CirtexHosting dropped all disk space limits on these plans, which now offer both unlimited bandwidth and unlimited disk space.
CirtexHosting has also dropped the bandwidth limit on all Reseller hosting and Semi-dedicated hosting packages, without raising prices. Reseller hosting starts at $25.99 per month for 25GB of disk space, and Semi-dedicated hosting starts at $35.99 per month for 20GB of disk space. Semi-Dedicated hosting plans are housed on powerful servers that can deliver the level of system resources needed to sustain optimal performance for each individual account.
In December, CirtexHosting added PostgreSQL Hosting, enabling its customers to create and manage PostgreSQL databases through the cPanel control panel. The vast majority of shared Web hosts currently do not support PostgreSQL, instead supporting only the MySQL database platform.

The newest technology in the field of web hosting is cloud computing.
This innovative approach toward the hosting of web applications is promising real cost savings and improved flexibility for any business owner’s technology strategy.
The cloud computing architecture is scalable and it will adjust to the needs of the applications. If more resources are needed, they are assigned by the cloud platform, without the need for staff to re-configure the installation.
Today, corporate IT managers are beginning to research this opportunity. They are faced with a barrage of marketing claims, some of them hype, and some of them real.
To fill the educational need, the company Bestcloudcomputing was introduced yesterday. This website will provide educational help and direction to the best websites and news sources.
A cloud reduces the complexity of hosting because the server architecture simplifies the need for managing of individual serves and network devices. The system administrators and network managers of the hosted application can focus on the big picture, and not spend their time configuring specific servers and assigning them to network devices.
A spokesman for Bestcloudcomputing told us: “We are the first web based company that can reduce the complexity of learning about cloud computing.”
More information can soon be found at the new website http://www.bestcloudcomputing.com which will be launched in the coming weeks.
