CloudLinux Running on Over 5,000 Servers

September 24th, 2011 Web Hosting

According to reports, CloudLinux, the producer of CloudLinux OS, has recently proclaimed that it is running on over 5,000 servers around the globe, witnessing 100 percent rise in the number within six months period. CloudLinux, by separating every user’s account in Lightweight Virtual Environment (LVE), enables the system managers to limit CPU memory and the coexisting connections, being provided to every server occupant. LVE is wonderful in securing the users from “terrible neighbor effect”, where a tenant can affect the server speed terribly. So, this seems to be the best solution for shared hosting.

According to the CEO of CloudLinux, Igor Seletskiy, “We are now beginning to see the exponential growth in CloudLinux OS adoption that we expected once the OS gains acceptance.” Seletskiy continued, “Shared hosters, data centers – and others – that need a commercially-supported, cost-effective means of providing a secure, dense, server environment are increasingly turning to CloudLinux to maximize efficiencies.” Over 500 web hosting service providers run CloudLinux OS on their servers and the figure seems to be rising with every passing day. In addition, more than 100 collective datacenters bundle CloudLinux with VPS and dedicated servers.

Owing to these measures, those who are having shared web hosting can rest assured of the stability and server density, turning it beneficial for their business. CloudLinux also provides MySQL Governor, allowing complete control over the MySQL resources accessible to the users. Likewise, it is, in near future, going to release CageFS, a virtualized file system for shared web hosters. CageFS ensures that the files are not been accessible to anyone additional than the title-holder. Moreover, CloudLinux proclaims to grant the users with quick and the best ever updates. Interested parties can download CloudLinux OS or signup for a 1 month trial by visiting www.cloudlinux.com.
