It articulates that Microsoft’s Web App Gallery includes widely used blogging platforms, content management systems, photo galleries, tools, and forum software. And with a 1-click, or near 1-click, installation process for all included apps, users can quickly and easily install the applications of their choice and have them online and fully operational within a few short minutes.

The company avers that its Web App Gallery tool is included free on all new ASP.NET and ColdFusion 9 hosting plans, which are both hosted on Microsoft’s latest web platform, Windows Server 2008.

SingleHop Announces Turn-key Reseller Cloud Hosting Platform

admin — Sun, 04 Jul 2010 07:36:07 +0000

SingleHop, Inc., one of the fastest-growing providers of dedicated servers and complex web hosting solutions, announced the launch of the world’s first cloud hosting reseller system, which will be sold under their Tandem reseller brand.

The Chicago-based web hosting company has quickly achieved a dominant position in the dedicated and complex hosting business by offering innovative solutions for end-users and resellers. In 2008, SingleHop introduced LEAP, an advanced control panel, designed to give customers complete control over their infrastructure. Earlier this year, SingleHop launched the highly successful Tandem Reseller system, which offers resellers enhanced control, greater sales potential, and higher margins.

“Tandem revolutionized the reseller market,” said SingleHop President and CEO Zak Boca. “It was the first to offer the end-user a fully white-labeled control panel. Tandem also gained notoriety amongst web hosters by providing unlimited SSL certificates, among other exclusive offers.” Both systems, LEAP and Tandem, have also been extended to various additional platforms, including the iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry, Firefox toolbar, and various widgets, making SingleHop a leader in providing complementary tools that expand on the amount of control the end-user has.

With the launch of the Cascade Platform, SingleHop will again redefine the reseller experience by offering the world’s first turn-key cloud reseller system, available under the Tandem Reseller program, with all of the usual perks, including end-user control panels in over 15 languages. Cascade will allow resellers to seamlessly create and manage virtual machines via LEAP, and then have the ability to sell them with fully customized control panels for the end-user through Tandem.

“Adoption of cloud computing technologies by hosting providers has not yet hit a tipping point, because we feel hosting companies haven’t had the necessary components to easily bring a product to market,” Boca said. “We feel that our unique combination of technologies, LEAP, Tandem, and Cascade will change the landscape, and will further enable adoption of cloud computing in the hosting world.”

The cloud hosting reseller system will be launching July 17th around the time of the industry’s annual convention, HostingCon. SingleHop executives are scheduled to speak during two exclusive sessions, July 19th and 20th at 3 pm. Monday’s event is focused on “Reselling the Cloud,” while Tuesday’s is focused on mobile server and cloud management technologies. Entrance is limited to HostingCon participants and media.

Stabroek News website in the clear-GoogleStabroek News website in the clear-Google

admin — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 09:21:16 +0000

Internet search giant Google says that the Stabroek News website has not hosted malicious software over the last 90 days and that it “is not currently listed as suspicious.”

Google said that over the last 90 days the website www.stabroeknews.com “appeared to function as an intermediary for the infection of 1 site(s)” and that it was “listed for suspicious activity 1 time(s) over the past 90 days.” This had resulted in the internet search giant temporarily issuing a security advisory listing the Stabroek News website as “suspicious” for several hours on Saturday. However, full access to the website was restored at 9 pm on Saturday.

Stabroek News technical staffer Kester Clarke said that on Friday one of the newspaper company’s web servers was targeted by an unknown attacker. The attack was first observed at 11 pm, and the attacker was able to serve malicious software to visitors on the website on 7 of its pages. According to Clarke, at about 2:30 am on Saturday “the malicious software was removed from the server and the weakness plugged by our technical staff along with the assistance of our Web Host.” The problem, Clarke explained, was solved using an automated system. He said too that efforts are ongoing to prevent such problems from recurring.

By the time the problem was fixed, Clarke said that Google’s Search Advisory had already scanned the infected pages and had begun notifying users of Mozilla Firefox as well as visitors arriving through search engine results that the Stabroek News website might be harmful to their computer. However, during this time, persons using Internet Explorer had no difficulty in accessing the Stabroek News website, Clarke pointed out.

Google in their latest diagnostic test of the website said that the last time suspicious content was found was on Saturday. It said too that “of the 360 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 7 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent.” The last time Google visited the site was on Monday.

Clarke explained that the malicious software was linked back to the website dhfyjrud321.com which was established sometime on Friday. It is unclear whether this site was created locally, but Clarke said that this was a possibility.

An article appeared in last Sunday’s Guyana Chronicle captioned “Google warns against visiting Stabroek News website; paper sorting problem out with Google”. The article quoted one Michael Jebbs, a security adviser at Google Inc, as saying that “the company had launched an investigation into the operations of Stabroek News after receiving complaints from a U.S Internet Spyware watchdog and dozens of users in the United States alleging that Stabroek News has been installing spyware and malicious software onto the computers of visitors to their website.”

The Guyana Chronicle has to date not carried a follow-up story clarifying that the problem had been solved and was not attributable to SN.

Meanwhile, Clarke said that prior to Friday there had been two complaints from visitors to the Stabroek News website about them receiving spyware after visiting but that these were investigated and proven to be false. He said on both occasions, the spyware had come from other sites that the persons had visited.

SN Editor-in-Chief Anand Persaud said Guyana Publications Inc. will do whatever is necessary to further bolster the security of the website. He said the website is patronized by thousands every day both here and in the diaspora. He added that on a regular basis there are attempts to attack the website but these have been repulsed by the multi-layered security protecting the website and its servers. He said that since the Saturday incident website traffic has returned to normal.

admin — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 14:26:40 +0000

The new cloud hosting service is the ideal solution for business websites, thanks to its platform of multiple servers that operate as one. It provides unmatched reliability and redundant storage. Every website hosted on the cloud is virtually stored on several areas of the Sun Powered Cloud Storage. In case any of the hard drives fail, the others take over and no information is lost from the system.

The superior virtualization standard – KVM (kernel-based virtual machine) used on the platform guarantees dedicated share of server resources to each website hosted there. “The cloud platform is probably the best thing out there right now – it behaves like a dedicated server by guaranteeing your fair share of space, traffic, CPU, only at a cheaper cost. It is great for small and big sites that want to cut costs while at the same time get a reliable service,” says Nikolay Todorov, Chief Technical Officer of SiteGround.com.

SiteGround cloud hosting comes in several convenient packages with different resource configurations and includes a number of free extra services such as cPanel and 24/7 server monitoring.
