SingleHop's Cascade Cloud Program Launches CloudLinux

CHICAGO, April 15 /PRNewswire/ -- SingleHop, a leading Chicago-based dedicated server and managed web hosting provider, today announced the first product launch under their Cascade cloud hosting services program: the CloudLinux operating system.

Launched in February 2010, the CloudLinux operating system is designed to increase server density by improving stability and reliability using isolation technology to create Lightweight Virtual Environments (LVEs). The use of LVEs improves server density and performance. CloudLinux is easily interchangeable with Centos or Red Hat Enterprise Linux; Cloud Linux founder Igor Seletskiy says that the switch can be made "within five minutes."

"CloudLinux is a new market offering, but one that will offer exceptional performance and extended control abilities in a cloud-like system," says SingleHop VP of Sales and Marketing Dan Ushman. "For our clients, it ensures greater stability and efficiency, optimized performance, and better security of their servers. We're excited to offer CloudLinux as the first of our Cascade cloud system offerings."

CloudLinux will be available for free with any server above $179.00 per month. For more information about Cloud Linux and SingleHop's Cloud Computing Cascade program, please visit http://www.SingleHop.com.
