LeaseWeb Expands its Cloud Infrastructure to the U.S.
MANASSAS, Virginia, November 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
LeaseWeb, a leading global infrastructure provider, announced today that it has
launched its Cloud product in the U.S. The launch is part of LeaseWeb's wider strategy to
rapidly expand its global IaaS footprint.
Designed for maximum redundancy and with CloudStack technology at the core, the
LeaseWeb Cloud enables customers to spin up cloud servers at the push of a button, backed
by a premier customer portal to provision and manage network, compute and storage
resources.
LeaseWeb entered the U.S. market in January 2011 with a new headquarters and data
center. The highly-anticipated geographic expansion enabled LeaseWeb to deliver its
reputation as a global provider of infrastructure services to the United States and,
subsequently, continue its trend of success that originated in Europe. Robert van der
Meulen, Cloud Manager at LeaseWeb, says, "Our customer base is growing fast and our pace
of innovation has been incredible, with our Cloud platform selling thousands of cloud
instances since our launch."
William Schrader, CEO of LeaseWeb USA, "We have witnessed exceptional growth since we
opened our U.S. data center. Last year we successfully launched our leading platform in
the U.S. that let our customers deploy physical servers instantly, while providing them
with the ability to fully customize their service. I am excited that our customers can now
also easily spin up new cloud instances in our U.S. data center. Our historical success
underpins this latest development as we take our first step into the U.S. cloud market."
