[Thehostingnews] Web Hosting Utility Firm, Layered Technologies, Updates with 3Tera Grid OS
Plano, Texas - (The Hosting News) - October 9, 2007 - Dedicated server products, scalable on-demand, and self-managed utility hosting services firm, Layered Technologies, Inc., has deployed 3Tera's updated AppLogic 2.1, designed to enable the most current grid-based private servers and web hosting services.
Layered Technologies has implemented the latest version of the easy-to-manage grid infrastructure to provide their customers with affordable, flexible and easy to manage Web hosting without the hassle of managing the infrastructure.
With clients in over 120 countries, Layered Technologies' custom technology solutions allow both large and small customers to rapidly deploy on-demand hosting and utility computing services, providing all the controls of colocation without the start up costs, capital investments, long term contracts and associated challenges. By partnering with Layered Technologies, companies are able to achieve ROI quickly via reduced capital investment, total cost of ownership (TCO), labor reduction, training, and floor space. Layered Technologies can have a company up and running in days versus months.
Michael Platner, CEO of Layered Technologies explained, ''We pride ourselves in offering the latest and greatest technology to our clients to enable them to compete in their industry and grow their business. AppLogic 2.1 allows for greater scalability and control of the infrastructure, assuring users of their ability to grow.''
The AppLogic grid operating system is the first commercial platform designed specifically to enable true utility computing. The system converts commodity servers into scalable grids on which users can visually deploy, operate and scale transactional Web applications without any modification of code. At the heart of the system is 3Tera's disposable infrastructure technology that packages applications with the definition of the infrastructure required to run them into self-contained and portable entities, able to run on any grid anywhere in the world. As a result, applications become completely separated from the hardware infrastructure traditionally needed to run them, allowing users to remotely manage their applications through a Web browser and provision resources as needed.
The new 2.1 release of the AppLogic grid operating system adds comprehensive application monitoring and support for multiple CPUs per appliance. SaaS and Web 2.0 companies can benefit from greater scalability, improved resource utilization, unprecedented visibility and control over application performance.
In addition to AppLogic 2.1, Layered Technologies is announcing new pricing for the Virtual Private Servers (VPS). Layered Technologies' VPS enables your site or application to no longer be tied to an individual hardware server, rather it is spread across many nodes, allowing users to take advantage of true grid-cluster computing. The VPS runs in a Virtual Private Datacenter managed by Layered Technologies, allowing for universal high availability and the ability to increase CPU, memory and storage as needed. Pricing for the VPS Silver Layer starts at $49 per month and a $19 set up charge.
Base System configuration includes:
20% of the Node's CPU resources
40 GB disk space
256 MB RAM allocation
Bandwidth: 1500 GB transfer
IP Addresses: 4
High Availability
Enterprise Grade
Pricing for the VPS Gold Layer starts at $59 per month and a $19 set up charge. Base System configuration includes:
20 % of the Node's CPU resources
80 GB disk space
512 MB RAM Allocation
Bandwidth: 2500 GB Transfer
IP Addresses: 4
High Availability
Enterprise Grade

Based in Frisco Texas, Layered Technologies, Inc. is one of the five largest global providers of on-demand hosting and utility computing solutions, providing dedicated, partially managed server hosting solutions, primarily for the small and medium-sized enterprise (''SME'') market. The firm provides customers with technology, infrastructure and support services designed to enable them to operate servers at secure Tier III/IV data centers, while saving capital and operating costs typically associated with purchasing and maintaining servers at co-location facilities. Layered Technologies servers and associated network facilities are used by customers to host a variety of Internet-enabled applications, including content and e-commerce web sites, software as a service (''SaaS'') offerings, online multiplayer games, shared web site hosting services, and streaming multimedia content distribution and delivery, among other applications.
