3Tera, innovator of grid and utility computing solutions for online services, released AppLogic 1.2, the industry’s first grid operating system for utility computing, allowing Web 2.0 and SaaS companies to effectively speed Web applications to market

September 18, 2006 – (TopHosts News Brief) – 3Tera, Inc. today announced the release of AppLogic 1.2, the industry’s first grid operating system designed to enable utility computing for transactional Web applications.

AppLogic enables hosting providers to offer the first true utility computing services by converting commodity servers into fully scalable shared grids that are easy to manage. The system allows existing software to be packaged into completely self-contained, portable applications that can easily be deployed and scaled to dozens of servers on demand on any AppLogic grid, anywhere in the world. As a result, open source developers, Web 2.0 and SaaS companies can rapidly deploy Web applications without owning and operating hardware infrastructure, and pay only for the resources they actually use.

“AppLogic allows hosting providers to move to a utility model by enabling them to host transactional and streaming Web applications on a grid. The applications become highly available and scalable for the first time, giving both hosting providers and developers a significant competitive advantage and dramatically simplifying operations,” Bert Armijo, vice president of Marketing, said in a PR Web release.
