Match Made in Mosso
Only The Hosting Cloud by Mosso uses TrueHybrid technology to seamlessly combine Linux and Windows technologies--even on the same website.
Combination Theory
On your Mosso account, you can have PHP, ASP, HTML, Python, and Perl pages all peacefully sharing the same directory.
TrueHybrid is the best server technologies from both sides of the fence, fused together in a way that just has to be seen to be believed. The Hosting Cloud makes it possible to upload both ASP (popular in the Windows camp) and PHP files (popular among Linuxheads) to your website--gasp!--right in the same folder. In a rare display of cooperation, both types of pages work flawlessly, side by side, on the same website.
Native Habitats
Here's the best part: it's not just that both files work. It's that both files work natively and automatically. Sure, it's possible for Linux and Windows servers to sort of act like each other through clunky and unreliable emulation, but we have strong feelings about that: it's a hack and it's cheating. The fact is, any technology always works best in its native environment. And providing multiple, native environments is one area where the enterprise cluster powering The Hosting Cloud really shines. No matter what technologies you use to build your site--ASP.net, Ruby on Rails, PHP, Perl, Python or a combination of all of them--rest assured that your site will have impressive, reliable, and native performance.
An Impressive Balancing Act
So how does it all happen? Right behind our firewalls (which keep your files ultra secure), we've employed quite possibly the most advanced load-balancing technologies ever. Going a step beyond traditional approaches, Mosso actually checks the type of each file, sending files to the native clusters where they will perform the best. So every Windows-based page is served from a cluster built and optimized especially for Windows, and every Linux-based page is served from a cluster built and optimized especially for Linux.
