The Future Of Hosting - someone explain this to me....
 

http://www.mh-one.com/

They claim to be "the future of hosting", and I wouldn't really give it a second glance, except they have a big write up in Wired this month

someone please, explain to my drunk ass, why they are claiming to be "the future of hosting"....I can't really see anything all that great on the site, but I am also drunk as shit right now

They have a huge wrecking ball smashing everything, what more do you want?

From their website:

yep nothing else to talk about :thumbsup
sounds good to me :)

Sounds like they are using Virtuilization. The new VMware ESX allows this, growth on demand, you can take a series of ESX servers and cluster CPU power and allocate multiple CPU's to a Virtual Machine and cluster it over several machines.

Example.

Vmware ESX you can load it on say 10 servers making 20 processors total for capacity if they are dual processor systems.

Vm ESX can create a cluster and you can allocate say 15 CPU's to a customer for 15Ghz if each processor is 1ghz in size.

You can do the same with ram ect.

on the side note Vm ESX really is a great peice of software with esx motion just like a VPS server i.e virtuozzo theres zero downtime migration from one hostnode to another. High-availability with a failover that is less than a second

ESX Vm is great for companies that are consolidating servers, it allows them to utilize more CPU and resources better, its like shared hosting you have your peeks and low sof usage, while one company needs cpu power at night another needs it during the day. ITs all bout efficiancy. the adult community probably doesn't care for it but in large scale application hosting Virtualization is key in alot of factors.

And no VM ESX VPS's are not slow, they are amazingly fast compared to the old GS versions.

They believe the future of hosting, in layman's terms, is the W.H.O.P.P.E.R.

Didn't you see War Games in the 80s?

lame.. our Vserver hardware has been scalable for about a year now.

Woopty, I'm sure the wired write was fixed like most print articles.

I'm sure something big is coming but that's not it.

Big PR.. I would stay away
