ADS Introduces Mantis Hosting to Take Sting Out of Virtual Server Deployments

by Robert Dempsey on March 27, 2008

New Virtual Hosting Solution Designed Specifically for Rails Applications Delivers 99.9% Uptime

WINTER PARK, FL (March 27, 2008)…Web development innovator Atlantic Dominion Solutions (ADS) today announced the introduction of a fully managed hosting solution designed specifically for Ruby on Rails deployments – ADS Mantis Hosting. Intended to provide the reliable stability and support lacking from some other virtual hosting options, the service provides complete hosting capabilities for Rails applications on virtual servers that ADS customizes to meet the unique needs of each application.

“We were hearing from a lot of people that they were frustrated by the instability of their virtual hosting service,” said ADS Project Director, Robert Dempsey. “It doesn’t matter how great your web app is if it’s down. So we set out to solve the problem ourselves, by delivering the flexibility and scalability of virtual hosting without the uncertainty around downtime, and with the added benefit of full support and management. I think ADS Mantis Hosting is well equipped to achieve that objective.”

To help reach that goal, ADS partnered with Rails Machine for its high-quality hardware and network infrastructure. The combination of fully managed hosting from ADS and a reliable Rails Machine platform allows ADS Mantis Hosting to deliver 99.9% uptime and guarantee system resources are available whenever the application needs them.

“Partnering with Rails Machine allowed us to give our clients the reliability of rock-solid, proven hosting,” said Dempsey. “Their solutions are extremely efficient and provide the consistent uptime and stability needed to ensure peak performance for our clients’ Rails apps.”

Rails Machine’s CTO Dan Benjamin echoed Dempsey’s enthusiasm and saw the partnership as a great opportunity to collaborate with other forward-thinking developers to come up with solutions that benefit everyone using Ruby on Rails.

“We’re excited about partnering with a leading development company like ADS,” said Dan Benjamin, Rails Machine CTO. “ADS Mantis Hosting really takes advantage of our infrastructure to deliver our common goal – to make Ruby on Rails faster and easier to deploy.”

Ultimately, Dempsey sees ADS Mantis Hosting allowing organizations to maintain sophisticated web applications without any significant commitment of time and resources, allowing them to focus solely on their core business.

“The scalability offered by virtual hosting is obviously fantastic,” said Dempsey. “But at the end of the day what’s most important is performance and reliability, and it can be hard to find internal resources to dedicate to monitoring and managing your application. With ADS Mantis Hosting, our clients can have us do all the work for them and not waste a second worrying about the status of their web app.”

ADS Mantis Hosting is available for all Ruby on Rails deployments. For more information about ADS Mantis Hosting, visit http://www.techcfl.com/ads-mantis-hosting.
