Hostway has launched its cloud computing infrastructure FlexCloud, adding cloud computing functionality to all its hosting packages. The new service includes automated allocation of CPU, memory, storage and bandwidth for individual websites. The company states that the first to benefit will be its North American customers' websites, which will be hosted on the new cloud computing infrastructure. All new customers' websites will also be placed on FlexCloud. It further states that FlexCloud includes automated allocation of CPU, memory, storage and bandwidth for individual websites.
While Hostway did not specify the technology behind its new cloud computing infrastructure, Hostway uses VMware's server virtualization technology for its virtual dedicated servers, suggesting that Hostway may have incorporated the VMware platform into this offering.
