[xwiki-users] interesting opportunity?

One of my main concerns with XWiki has been the difficulty in getting a reasonably priced Java hosting service. Ideally, I want a service provider that gives me the web server stack, but spares me the admin headache. This may be just what I need: http://www.cloudfoundry.com/ "Cloud Foundry provides automated, outsourced data center management for Java applications. It eliminates the expense and distraction of building and operating your own data center for your production applications and QA environments. And, with no long term contracts, you simply use Cloud Foundry for as long as you need. " "With just a few clicks of the mouse, you deploy your application to a load-balanced cluster running on Amazon EC2. Cloud Foundry monitors and manages your applications and automatically handles auto-scaling and failover. We insulate you from the messy details of using the cloud and leave you free to focus on your business." "Cloud Foundry supports the Apache, Tomcat and MySQL stack. It configures MySQL for master/slave replication and uses Apache to load balance across one or more Tomcat servers." ___________________________ Yishay Mor, Researcher, London Knowledge Lab http://www.lkl.ac.uk/people/mor.html http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=yishaym%40gmail.com +44-20-78378888 x5737
