Hivext Technologies has announced free beta availability of Jelastic, which
runs any Java application in the cloud without code changes.
Java applications can be uploaded in minutes without changes to code or
programming language and with no need to write for specific APIs (application
programming interfaces). Application developers can choose which stack
components they want and need, and their application will run and can scale
easily on the Jelastic platform.
In addition, the company announced its first hosting partners – ServInt, in
the U.S., and Host Europe, for Europe – that will offer Jelastic to Java
developers.
“Application developers can leverage existing Java skills on the Jelastic
platform, which is the world’s first cloud platform to host and auto-scale
any Java application," said Ruslan Synytsky, CEO, Hivext Technologies. “Our
mission is very simple: ... (more)

the cloud, removing the lag time caused whenever files are updated and
uploaded from a personal computer. Jelastic can take application source code
directly from version control repositories, via either the Git or SVN
protocol.

Commentary by Maximilian Ahrens, CTO, Zimory
There has been a lightning storm bringing parts of Amazon down (see here).
The question is: how can you avoid this - without building untenable
worldwide distributed software. The answer is simple: multiple sites that are
seamlessly connected (um, “real” cloud computing). If you have two sites
available, the probability of lightning striking both sites at the same time
is rather low. But the challenge is the seamless connectivity. You can have
two compute sites, but starting up the workloads that were running on the
site that was shut d... (more)
