EveryCity Partners with Zeus Technology
London, United Kingdom, September 07, 2011 --(PR.com)-- EveryCity, the managed hosting provider, today announced a partnership with Zeus Technology, the leading provider of award winning application traffic management software. With Zeus load balancing technology, EveryCity is offering an economic, multi-tiered solution to rapid growth and unpredictable bursts of traffic. It will allow online companies to manage their growth whilst paying only for the computing resources they consume.
In addition to shared Zeus load balancing, EveryCity now offers dedicated Zeus virtual appliances at very cost effective rates. To accommodate rapid scaling, customers can turn on extra features via a new licence key. Clients will be able to start off on the shared Zeus ZXTM product, but will be able to move onto a dedicated pair of Zeus Simple Load Balancers (SLB), in order to manage the weight of traffic as well as providing resilience as they grow.
“The flexibility and versatility of Zeus solutions means that EveryCity customers can get exactly the load balancing features they need as their business needs change. The combination of Zeus technology and EveryCity’s commitment to great service is a win-win for its customers.” (Kosten Metreweli, Chief Marketing Officer, Zeus)
The managed component of the EveryCity offer plays a significant part in dealing with unpredictable growth:
“People talk about cloud computing as being ‘elastic.’ In truth, it is more plastic in most cases. It will stretch to varying degrees, but typically this is not something that happens automatically; with most providers, your cloud platform still needs to be scaled up and down manually when dealing with unpredictable traffic.” (Jon Slater, New Business Director, EveryCity)
To manage spikes in traffic, clients of EveryCity are now able to seamlessly upgrade to dedicated virtual Zeus TM load balancers, which will automatically scale servers up and down on demand. Appropriate capacity is made available to the client at a very cost-effective "resource reservation" rate. Zeus then automatically boots up servers within seconds as they are required and the customer only pays for the resources consumed, following the utility-based cloud model. Zeus also takes care of scaling the platform back down once the peaks in traffic have subsided.
