Cirrus Hosting Accelerates Cloud Storage Platform

Cirrus Hosting (Cirrus Tech Ltd.), a Canadian provider of VPS hosting, cloud hosting, and dedicated server hosting, announced the introduction of high-performance SSD storage to its OnApp-based cloud infrastructure platform.

Its enterprise cloud platform is a fast and easy way to deploy on-demand elastic infrastructure tailored to the needs of enterprise clients. With the addition of cloud SSD storage, clients can expect faster performance and lower latency.

SSDs are orders of magnitude faster than the spinning disk technology used by many cloud providers. Seek, read, and write speeds are accelerated compared to traditional drives, allowing common cloud tasks to be carried out more quickly: database responsiveness is improved, data throughput is substantially enhanced, and the storage medium no longer acts as a bottleneck to data processing.

SSD-based storage makes a difference to the responsiveness of cloud-based applications, websites, and e-commerce stores, helping developers deliver an optimal experience to users.

“The introduction of SSD storage will cement Cirrus Hosting’s standing as one of the most versatile, performant, and enterprise-friendly infrastructure hosting environments in Canada,” commented Cirrus president and CEO Ali Mirdamadi. “By keeping at the leading edge of technological innovation, we aim to ensure that our clients always have access to the fastest and most powerful infrastructure on the market.”

Cirrus Hosting’s cloud platform provides performance, stable, and reliable infrastructure-as-a-service to businesses with stringent service requirements. Built to offer HA hardware-independent infrastructure for availability, the enterprise cloud platform allows businesses to leverage powerful, load-balanced servers and server clusters in Canadian data centers at a fraction of the price of equivalent physical hardware.
