cPanel Expands to South America Via HostDime and Fast Update Service

(PRWeb) cPanel, a company that develops web hosting software and has a strong performance record in North America, will now expand its success and brand name to the South-American region via its Fast Update service with HostDime’s data center in Brazil. The recent growth in this area, backed by support from HostDime, represents one of the business decisions that will allow cPanel to support new and emerging markets.
HostDime’s director of business development, Usman Arshad, expressed his excitement about working with cPanel in South America.
“HostDime has had major growth in South America over the last four years, and we look forward to continuing the strong, unbreakable bond that we have with cPanel,” Arshad said.
cPanel’s Fast Update service is a feature offered by many of the company’s top partners. It is also one of the core building blocks to assist data centers in the South-American region with faster installations and updates.
Rather than having to find connections to mirror servers, cPanel Partner NOC’s are provided with a locally-housed server that can be used to provide updates to their cPanel/WHM and Enkompass servers. Not only does the Fast Update services use cPanel proprietary technology to find the closest mirror–but it also uses an internal algorithm to select the most suitable mirror for the fastest data transmission.
cPanel system administrator Adam Wien said he was pleased with the expansion because it would increase the speed of installs and updates by 400-percent.
“The Fast Update network of servers is also critical because it lowers transit costs for both, cPanel and its customers,” Wien added.
The faster installations and upgrades translate to fewer service interruptions for the partners’ clients. The faster install and upgrade times ultimately reduce bandwidth costs for data centers and allow providers and customers to reallocate their resources to other web hosting areas.
cPanel vice president of operations Aaron Phillips discussed cPanel’s commitment to providing world-wide services to Partner NOC’s.
“In addition to our expansions into South America, our ongoing efforts also include plans for Spanish-speaking technical support, product translations, and website efforts,” Phillips added.

HostDime to Offer CloudLinux on its VPS and Dedicated Servers

(The Hosting News) – Cloud Linux Inc., an innovative software company dedicated to serving the needs of hosting service providers, announces today that HostDime, a leading global Web Hosting organization, will begin to offer CloudLinux on all of its VPS and dedicated servers. HostDime is one of the largest providers of managed hosting services and has a global presence with six international offices and data centers in USA, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, UK, India, and Israel. With a reputation for expert customer service and quality products, HostDime selected CloudLinux to deliver improved performance, security and reliability to its customers.
“HostDime is very pleased to offer CloudLinux,” states Emmanuel Vivar, CEO of HostDime. “As a managed hosting provider we are always looking for quality products that will help us increase efficiency and stability as well as improve the overall performance from our servers. We deployed CloudLinux on our shared hosting servers, and we have seen immediate improvement in reliability. Now we want to offer the same solution to our dedicated server customers.”
CloudLinux’s core technology is Lightweight Virtual Environment™, a kernel-level technology that limits the amount of resources (CPU, concurrent processes) available to a group of processes. While similar to container type virtualization technology, LVE is completely transparent and lightweight. Once installed, the LVE works transparently to manage resources that the hosting provider sets for the accounts on a server. It controls the CPU resources to ensure that each account on a shared server is allocated enough resources to run efficiently without jeopardizing the other tenants on that server, making the server more stable and delivering better performance.
With LVE technology, CloudLinux can deliver performance, reliability and operational benefits for hosting providers including:
Increased uptime since no one account can slow down or take down an entire shared server
Better reliability and performance with a server that is running at peak operating capacity
Better control over CPU resources
Increased density so you can host more tenants on one server
Compatibility with all major control panels for easy management
“Cloud Linux understands the needs of hosting providers in delivering secure, reliable, high performance services to their clients,” states Igor Seletskiy, Cloud Linux Founder and CEO. “Our proven technology can help global providers like HostDime differentiate their services from their competition and deliver quality products to their customers.”
CloudLinux is priced to support all types of hosting providers and is available at a tiered retail monthly price based on the number of servers under management. The CloudLinux Partner Program offers discounts and more competitive pricing and a support model designed to meet the specific requirements of hosting companies as well as an opportunity to leverage the CloudLinux brand.
