Liquidweb Storm On Demand Expands To New Regions!
LANSING, Mich.â Storm On Demand (#-Link-Snipped-#), the cloud hosting arm of managed hosting provider Liquid Web (<a href="https://www.liquidweb.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Liquid Web - Managed Hosting & Custom Solutions</a>), now features two separate regions in an effort to offer Geographic Redundancy and eliminate latency. In the new regions, US Central (headquartered in Michigan) and US West (headquartered in Arizona), Storm will contain a number of individual zones amongst which users can host and distribute data.
Improved Performance:
The unveiling of Storm On Demandâs Western Region marks a significant announcement for user s seeking high performance cloud hosting with the option of Geographic Redundancy. Already achieving some of the loftiest benchmarks for performance in the cloud hosting industry (see: #-Link-Snipped-#), Storm On Demandâs highly connected network will now allow users to experience a significant performance upgrade on top of the hostâs already impressive marks. By improving upon its ability to deliver traffic from a physical location nearest its users, customers will see a notable lack of latency in the transfer of data.
Geographic Redundancy:
In addition to the performance upgrades detailed above, Storm On Demand users will now be able to use the hostâs separate regions to create Geographic Redundancy with a âhot standby site.â Similar to fail-over clustering, a hot standby site allows your operation to move to a fully functional standby system should your primary system fail. Although both Storm On Demand Regions are located in Disaster Neutral areas of the United States, this type of redundancy is ideal for when unexpected situations arise that canât be mitigated by simply employing local redundancy systems.
Liquid Web/Storm On Demand Founder and CEO, Matthew Hill, discusses the benefit of Storm On Demandâs expansion into multiple Regions:
--âOur US West Region allows us to fast track our ongoing efforts by physically moving your data closer to West Coast hubs. Western US based businesses and global companies with customers in the western united states can now leverage the Storm On Demand suite of infrastructure web services to build their businesses and run their applications in the Cloud.â
As Storm On Demandâs new Regions are implemented, users will be able to access nearly all of the features Storm On Demand has offered since its inception. The Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provider expects that the success of its new regions will provide the traction it requires to continue expanding into additional regions in the near the future.
