CFXHosting Develops a Virtual Private Server Hosting Solution for Macromedia Developers

 
May 29, 2003
Macromedia hosting partner CFXHosting has launched the world's only full-control Virtual Private Server hosting solution on a Windows platform designed specifically for the sophisticated Macromedia developer. The CFX-Advanced VPS plan partitions each client on a server into an isolated area. Clients are given full-control of their own operating system, gaining dedicated server control of their partitioned section of the server. Unlike traditional shared hosting environments in which many web sites fight for the server resources, each site remains independent of one another and is therefore not affected by the performance of other sites on the server. This unique hosting configuration is made possible by CFXHosting's proprietary software solution that allows multiples copies of operating systems to be run simultaneously on one server.

Clients receive root-level server access - via telnet or terminal server -- which is identical to that given in a dedicated hosting environment. In addition to IIS or Apache access, clients have control over their own operating system, including remote rebooting capabilities, the freedom to install customer applications, and the ability to host additional web sites and web applications in their partitioned area.

"The main advantage that the CFX-Advanced VPS plan gives developers is complete server isolation at a much lower cost than a dedicated server," said Mark Click, Sales Representative for CFXHosting. "Developers can be confident that their websites will not be affected by the performance of other sites on the server due to our server partitioning software. For example, one client can reboot his operating system and not affect the environment for any of the other clients on the same machine. This is of paramount importance for mission-critical websites that can't afford to have their site suffer due to the performance of another site on the server."

The Advanced VPS plan provides Macromedia developers with access to the ColdFusion Administrator, a feature that is unprecedented in the hosting industry. Developers are also given use of ColdFusion RDS and are allowed to host additional domains in their partitioned area. "CFXHosting has always prided itself on providing unrestricted ColdFusion hosting to developers," said Dan Philips, Technical Support Representative at CFXHosting. "Our Advanced VPS is perhaps the largest step towards this that CFXHosting has taken. Giving a developer access to the ColdFusion Administrator is like giving a car mechanic access under the hood. We are very excited to be among the first hosts to offer this."
