Jelastic Inc., the company behind the next-generation Java hosting platform of the same name, launches its highly anticipated PHP hosting service in the fourth quarter of 2012. The unique benefit of PHP running on Jelastic is vertical scalability: no more need to overpay for large servers or suffer from insufficient resources. As the load grows, the application gets more resources automatically and immediately.

The Jelastic platform offers users a fundamentally different approach to cloud hosting, being simple enough for novices to create and deploy their projects in a few clicks, but at the same time requiring no code changes for scaling and providing enough power options for experienced programmers.

What are the key features of PHP on Jelastic?

The most innovative feature is the automated vertical scaling. Jelastic automatically increases or reduces the CPU and RAM for an application as it monitors application loads in real-time. This feature guarantees that users never overpay for unused resources; and it saves them time because there is no need for manual adjustments or architectural changes. As the application load goes up or down, resources are allocated immediately and automatically! It is also possible to specify resource caps to prevent unexpected or high bills.

In addition to the automated vertical scaling, applications hosted on Jelastic can be scaled horizontally. With just a couple of clicks the user can change the number of nodes from 1 to 8 (the actual upper limit is determined by the hoster).

Secondly, Jelastic is just easy: users don't have to do any installations or configurations, and a huge selection of software stacks is ready to go. At the same time the platform is highly efficient: each application or database server is a separate virtual machine, so that the user gets the necessary security and performance isolation. Users can use any networks ports that are needed, get public IP addresses, tune configuration files, reboot servers at any time and much more. Jelastic's beautiful graphical user interface ensures that anyone can get started with the platform in minutes.
