Ireland's leading Outsourced IT Services and Internet Hosting Provider, Hosting365, has joined the Zeus Service Provider License Agreement (SPLA) to enable them to provide a superior on-demand traffic management solution to its customers in the Cloud with a monthly usage fee.

 

 

In an environment where business requirements are constantly changing to keep up with and take advantage of the latest web technology, there is a growing demand for Service Providers to deliver application acceleration and delivery solutions that go beyond the capabilities of many existing hardware based products.

 

 

The partnership with Zeus, which is the only software-based application traffic management company,  will enable Hosting365  by offering a comprehensive layer-7 load balancing and application acceleration solution, The Zeus Extensible Traffic Manager (ZXTM) to meet the needs of its customers

 

 

The software can be deployed on industry standard hardware, virtual machines and any Cloud platform, and enables users to visualize and manipulate the flow of traffic to their web-enabled applications, thus ensuring a consistently robust web infrastructure. Coupled with the ability to deploy new online services very quickly, Zeus helps provide the competitive advantage businesses need, by making their online services faster, more reliable, more secure and easier to manage.

 

 

From its own 25,000 square feet, state of the art data centre in Park West, Dublin, Hosting365 offers its Cloud hosting solutions as Platform as a Service, enabling customers to pay for services as and when they use them. Thus, as the Zeus SPLA program is a monthly, subscription-based model with minimal up-front costs, it seamlessly integrates with Hosting 365's business model, by providing on-demand IT services.

 

 

Kevin O'Connor, (pictured above) Channel Manager, Hosting365, comments: "We partnered with Zeus, so we can have the benefit of providing a traffic management solution in the Cloud, coupled with utilizing a unique SPLA model which enables us to lease the ZXTM software. Flexibility for us is also key. 

 

O'Connor continues, "The Cloud is a highly cost-effective platform for the majority of companies, as they can scale their hardware requirements to match demand. Our customers have full control over their infrastructure usage maintaining a handle on costs at all times, as well as significantly reducing their IT web expenditure."

 

 

Cambridge, UK based Zeus claims to hold strategic partnerships with global companies such as Dell, HP, IBM, Intel,Oracle, Sun, Qualcomm and VMware, and powers over one million website infrastructures across the world including, BT, Comic Relief, Domino's Pizza, ITV, PLAY.COM, STA Travel and Virgin Media.

 

 

Their VP of Sales, Steve Webb, said, "With Hosting365's specialist knowledge in outsourced IT and infrastructure hosting and as Ireland's only Cloud Computing provider, we are delighted to have them on board our SPLA program."


"As more companies choose to outsource their IT services on a highly cost-effective monthly-usage model, Zeus can help Hosting 365 meet their customers' needs for secure, reliable and scalable loading balancing and traffic management services. This will help ensure their online presence is continuously available 24 hours a day, even during high traffic peaks."

 

 

Hosting365 was named as Ireland's seventh fastest growing technology company in the Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 50.
