Cloudways Introduces Industry’s First Managed Cloud Hosting for Containers
September 16, 2016
Cloudways now provides fast, affordable, and scalable container cloud hosting. The cloud platform provisions Kyup containers that come with auto-scalability along with quick-to-scale RAM, robust SSD storage, and dedicated IP address.
Cloudways and Kyup container based hosting make a terrific duo where developers and designers can launch automatically scaling cloud servers within minutes.
Auto-scalability is a crucial element for modern web apps. It lets developers enjoy a stress-free scaling process without human intervention. Abrupt traffic spikes increase computing resources for efficient traffic handling. Additionally, manual scaling of the RAM, Storage, and CPU sizes completes within seconds right from the Cloudways Platform.
"In a month or two, the online retail industry will be heading into a period of huge discounts and quick sales. With Kyup’s containers deployed on top of the Cloudways Platform, online stores will be able to eliminate any possible downtime during the holiday season sales," said Aaqib Gadit, Co-Founder at Cloudways.
"Other businesses can also benefit from Managed Kyup Hosting by Cloudways. Corporate websites, popular news websites, and blogs with viral content can consider Kyup containers for deployment. This way, they do not worry about downtime due to high influx of visitors," he added.
For an introduction, Cloudways Cloud Platform lets its users launch containers within minutes. The platform is built on the ethos of customer ease and choice. Inside the platform, web developers can install one of the 15 provided installers for development. Moreover, users can tweak the hosting stack by picking their preferred version of PHP and database software.
All apps are deployed on Cloudways ThunderStack, a hosting recipe made with the latest web-server and caching technologies. On Cloudways Container Platform, websites run 300% faster than deployment on other cloud platforms.
The platform comes with a unique feature called CloudwaysBot. Whenever a container scales, the bot informs the website owner by generating notifications within the Platform and through push messages on email, Slack, or HipChat.
