Hats off to Jelastic’s leading team
We all know the famous expression: “birds of a feather flock together”. This saying is perfect to describe the amazing group of people whose work made Jelastic the best Java and PHP PaaS in the world (in our opinion!). We wanted to show you who’s behind Jelastic so that you can see for yourself how it became the awesome platform you enjoy today.
Here’s a look at the headline acts:
Cloud hosting experts
Mark Zbikowski – Designer of MS-DOS
Mark Zbikowski, veteran Microsoft architect and developer, designed the DOS executable file format and was one of the key developers of Windows NTFS and Windows 2000/XP/Vista. However you feel about the Windows OS, there’s no denying the significant impact Mark’s prior innovations made. He began his career at Microsoft in 1981, working on DOS 1.0 as a designer, coder and liaison with IBM. His impressive career has also included significant involvement in OS/2, Cairo’s Object File System (OFS), and the NT File System (NTFS). Mark’s recent addition to the Jelastic team adds unrivalled technical expertise.

New website & services
Our new website, community and this blog have all gone live today, replacing our previous website which has served us well for almost six years. A big THANK YOU to everyone who has worked on this project over the last 10 months – great work!
As is often the case with projects like this every step has taken twice as much time as expected, but we really wanted to make sure we’ve incorporated all of the feedback we’ve gathered from our loyal customers and staff over the past six years and are very happy with the end result.
Please check out our fabulous new website and range of services and let us know what you think!
This is an important step because it allows us to showcase our services and product features fully, which we’ve never really done before, but it’s also important to our customers because we’ve radically reinvented our range of services – we’re now offering what we think are the most competitive and complete Managed Hosting Services around with some great new enhancements!
Here are some of the highlights:
- New range of Cloud VPS and Cloud VPS Extreme products featuring Plesk Panel 10
- New range of Dedicated Server and Complex Hosting products for customers with more bespoke or specialist requirements including high-availability, clustering and load-balancing
- New range of load-balancing, SSL certificates, trust marks and a wider range of domain names
- Introduction of our new ‘Care Pack‘ concept where we bundle a range of exciting new features and an SLA-backed service guarantee across our entire Cloud VPS, Cloud VPS Extreme and Dedicated hosting ranges – this includes some significant free enhancements which we are also rolling out to all existing VPS customers!
- Global coverage with our existing UK and USA and new Singapore managed hosting!
We’ll be posting much more in the coming days and weeks about our new range of services and in-depth discussions about some of the exciting new features and what the changes mean to you.
We’re working very hard to bring even more to you in the near future.
Watch out for the beta launch of a really exciting new service at the beginning of next month!
