The internet is a complex, challenging environment, with ever changing demands and ever growing requirements, while services are constantly under threat from new and evolving security risks.

With cloud vendors came "Hosting 2.0", the ability to host a website across multiple regions, and scale up and down as required. This was a game changer for many businesses, allowing for a new level of redundancy and scalability - but also brought with it its own challenges, with the increasing headaches of managing that infrastructure, and a new type of vendor lock-in, where applications are being built specifically for certain cloud vendors just to ease the infrastructure hassle, forcing businesses to become increasingly locked-in to one specific ecosystem.

 

We're here to change all that.

 

MachinaZero, the next generation hosting platform we've partnered with, is a new breed of management system, built from the ground up to be cloud agnostic, to provide a secure, scalable, high performance hosting platform for your business.

MachinaZero containers can scale automatically across both regions and cloud vendors, including onto your own on-prem or hosted infrastructure, providing an unparallelled level of flexibility and control.

Containerization has already allowed many companies to achieve a far greater utilization of server resources than traditional virtual machines, but the complexities of Kubernetes and similar put such technologies out of reach for companies without a dedicated infrastructure team. MachinaZero abstracts that complexity away, while providing a level of isolation that is simply not possible with traditional hosting platforms.

And yet, the MachinaZero platform still offers a "traditional" and user friendly virtual machine interface often lacking from the big cloud vendors, including a web based shell (with full "root" access), detailed monitoring and reporting, powerful controls to backup and restore your instances from any point in time, and private VPN tunnels to gain direct network access to your instances.

Oh, and how about more complex tasks, like video compression or machine learning? Those are covered too! The MachinaZero GPU containers can fully share the GPU resources on each server without the need to allocate resources to each container, and the serverless CUDA API can dynamically queue tasks and scale out based on predefined rules, to maximize GPU utilization and leverage spot pricing on various cloud vendors, without ever missing a request.

 

Here at netbubbles, we aim to take this powerful platform and provide its services to the people who will benefit from it most - developers and small businesses. Our platform is completely automated, handling everything from DNS records and SSL certificates, to backups and server patching - providing both your application and database in a scalable, fault-tolerant way - all while offering the highest level of security, with fully encrypted layer 3 tunnels, virtual private clouds, access control lists, unprivileged containerization and request shaping.

If all that sounds complicated, don't worry! For most sites it's as simple as entering a domain name and providing a current backup or a link to your code. Or, If its a new site, we can deploy any of a wide range of frameworks and web applications to get you started and online in seconds. We'll take care of setting up nameservers, registering SSL certificates, configuring load balancers, scheduling backups, all the technical stuff you shouldn't have to worry about - so you can focus on what matters most, your business!

 

We'll be opening for beta signups in coming months, so be sure to stay tuned to our news page and socials for more updates!
