2008-09-16
Hosting.com, the first name in global hosting solutions and services, today
announced its participation in the VMware (NYSE: VMW), vCloud Initiative.
CloudNine, Hosting.com?s cloud computing solution, will be showcased at VMworld
2008, which is expected to draw more than 14,000 attendees. Hosting.com will be
an original member of the VMware vCloud partner ecosystem, and will work with
VMware to create standard APIs and services for VMware vCloud partners, allowing
organizations to seamlessly extend their traditional IT infrastructures into the
cloud.
Darren King, CEO of Hosting.com, noted, ?The VMware vCloud Initiative can
revolutionize the hosting industry just as the virtual private server did in the
early 2000?s. The VMware Infrastructure suite allows Hosting.com to provide a
secure, scalable utility solution -- CloudNine -- to provision, support and
consult with clients at a level previously unavailable in the hosting industry.?
Hosting.com utilizes VMware virtualization in its data centers throughout North
America, and the VMware platform is a critical component of CloudNine. Through
its participation in the VMware vCloud Initiative, Hosting.com will provide
cloud computing services and benefits to businesses of all sizes. For more

?The VMware vCloud Initiative introduces an entirely new model for IT where

VMware platform to increase business agility and reduce costs by transitioning
to the cloud,? said William Shelton, Director of Emerging Products and Solutions
at VMware. ?Through our relationship with Hosting.com, VMware technologies and
CloudNine solutions are enabling our joint customers to realize the benefits of
cloud computing in an automated, flexible and secure cloud environment.?
Hosting.com deployed a complete, standards-based architecture to create
CloudNine. Hosting.com worked strategically with manufacturers such as Radware,
HP, Cisco, Fortinet, and others to ensure the security, reliability and
