Jelastic, a cloud platform for hosting applications that can be deployed on bare metal hardware or any IaaS, has announced a strategic partnership with Box, a domain registrar and service provider based in Israel. The partnership with Jelastic would help Box to become a leading Israeli cloud hosting provider.
“When searching cloud solutions for my clients, I looked specifically for a platform that can allow my clients to manage their servers in a pleasant, convenient, fast, and cost-effective way while meeting the demands of the market,” said Shlomi Kakon, CEO of Box.co.il. “Jelastic technology grabbed my attention because of the option to offer my clients quick setup and full scalability to manage their servers in Israel while receiving real-time support from local experts in the local language (Hebrew). This provides our customers a full circle of support that is unparalleled in the industry. Bringing the highly respected Jelastic technology to Israel gives my customers a competitive advantage in cloud development and application not just to meet market demands, but to exceed them.”
Box, powered by Jelastic, would supply a comprehensive pack of features among which:
- Automation of DevOps processes
- Vertical and horizontal auto-scaling
- Smart traffic distribution
- Fast deployment of applications and Docker containers
- “Next generation” infrastructure equipped with SSD storage
- Multiple data center locations
Currently, Jelastic is running as public, private and hybrid cloud on top of more than 50 data centers worldwide. The platform provides certified containers for Java, PHP, Ruby, Node.js, Python and .NET and the ability to use custom Docker containers. Jelastic would offer agile deployment models without coding to proprietary APIs, flexible automatic scaling for “stateless and stateful” applications, collaboration, access control, monitoring, backup and disaster recovery, built-in billing and business analytics tools, while driving down TCO with high density and hardware utilization.
