JaguarPC rolls out CloudLinux operating system

FULSHEAR, USA: JaguarPC has announced the implementation of the CloudLinux operating system (OS) to further improve server stability.

The deployment of new operating system specifically designed for use in shared hosting environments provides customers with peace of mind that their web presence is in good hands, said a press release.

"Across every element of JaguarPC's services, we are continually looking for ways to become even better," says Greg Landis, CEO at JaguarPC.

"One of our ongoing concerns is that some shared hosting customers might suffer if one of the other users, who shares their hardware, places too much demand on resources, through misuse or natural growth in popularity. We have investigated a number of different methods to protect our users from this problem, and CloudLinux came out with the best results," added Landis.

Also known as "web hosting," a shared hosting service is the standard choice for most startup businesses or individuals looking to establish themselves online.

CloudLinux OS is a variant of the popular Linux operating system that is specifically designed and built for the purposes of web hosting, with kernel-level functionality to control potential overuse of resources from occurring and impacting other accounts, added the release.

"With CloudLinux, every one of our shared hosting accounts has a definitive resource limit that can’t be stretched under any circumstances,” says Landis.

"This completely removes the possibility of unpredictable spikes in traffic or system usage causing problems for other accounts, regardless of how many different users share your hardware. Even better, our customers will only notice the changes we are rolling out because their server will be more stable. When it comes to usability and convenience, CloudLinux works just like CentOS or any of the other major Linux builds," says Landis.

"With CloudLinux, we have finally found an operating system that can give our shared hosting customers complete peace of mind that they won’t suffer the consequences of somebody else’s resource abuse. As we roll out CloudLinux OS across the network, we are confident that our customers will see the increased server stability for themselves," added Landis.
