"Java/JVM based cloud offerings became a serious reality in 2012 with a host of new PAAS and IAAS offerings. Cloudbees, JElastic, Heroku, Joyent, Oracle are just five of the large number of offerings out there now."

"Jelastic обьединяет разработчиков хостинговых платформ, которым удалось произвести впечатление на инвесторов из российского фонда "Сколково"."

"2013 will be the year of Java/JVM in the cloud - lots of new PAAS/IAAS providers launched JVM/Java based offerings in 2012, but many of them were of Beta quality and too limited in functionality due to a lack of understanding as to how the JVM works well in virtualised environments. In 2013 many of the kinks will get ironed out and a rich ecosystem will start to form."

"Jelastic, украинская облачная хостинговая платформа для Java-приложений привлекла в А-раунде инвестиции венчурных фондов Almaz Capital Partners и Foresight Ventures в размере $2 млн ($1,5 млн и $0,5 млн соответственно)."

Jelastic also comes with all the other bells and whistles you might need: load balancing, auto-scaling, SSL, and what not."

"This post is a first look at a cloud deployment of a PHP application using a recently announced service – the Jelastic PHP Cloud. Jelastic is a cloud hosting company that has to this point focused on cloud hosting for Java - and uniquely as a software provider for other hosting/datacenter providers. This gives users a choice of hosts, with seven (at this writing) separate providers across the globe that run the "Jelastic Cloud" as an option for deploying web applications. The variety of Jelastic partners allows developers to deploy applications to different data centers around the globe with a consistent deployment environment - making it easy to go 'global' with applications and services."

"One of the most active international companies partnering with Skolkovo is Microsoft, who recently signed an agreement to double its presence in the innovation center by 2015. In other numbers shared by Beltukov, Skolkovo in 2012 spent some $97m on grants for startups, including those given to Java-hosting startup Jelastic and security specialist Group-IB."

They advertise vertical scalability on demand with scaling back when resources are not needed, zero lock-in - meaning the apps have no specific code, and paying for what you use. Jelastic is integrated with build systems such as Maven, Ant, Hudson and Jenkins. It also has an Eclipse plug-in."

"I meet the guys two years back at JavaOne. A very tiny booth and they were handing out business cards with trial codes on them. It has been a ride for them since then. Duke's Choice Award winner this year and more and more hosting providers as partners. Beside the Java EE offering (GlassFish 3) they also run jetty and Tomcat in the cloud. Find out more at jelastic.com."

"Руслан Синицкий из Житомира бросил вызов софтверным гигантам, обслуживающим разработчиков веб-приложений. За сущие копейки он избавляет своих клиентов от программистской рутины."

"Jelasticin kehittämä uuden sukupolven pilvialusta Java- ja PHP-sovelluksille tulee tarjolle Suomessa.

Президент фонда Runa Capital Сергей Белоусов, инвестор стартапа, верит, что стоимость Jelastic вырастет до 100 миллионов долларов."

"Bei Dimitri Tschichatschow von Runa Capital in Moskau ist das anders - sein Arbeitsalltag verläuft weniger glamourös. Will er etwa seine auf das Cloud-Computing spezialisierte Software - Beteiligung Jelastic inspizieren, so muss er sich von Moskau per Flieger in die staubige Metropole Kiew aufmachen und anschließend mehr als 150 Kilometer auf ukrainischen Landstraßen zurücklegen. Ziel ist die Provinzmetropole Schytomyr. Bedeutendste Sehenswürdigkeit ist hier das Kosmonautenmuseum. Serviert werden hier herzhafte Kartoffelklöße und Krautwickel, ganz so, wie es die ukrainische Landküche vermuten lässt. Jelastic Inc. ist ein Software-Start-Up in der osteuropäischen Provinz, gegründet 2010 von einem russisch- ukrainischen Programmierer duo, und es befindet sich auf dem gewünschten Wachstumskurs. "Weitab von den großen Metropolen gibt es hunderte versteckter Schätze", sagt Tschichatschow, "der regionale Markt von Start-Up-Firmen wartet doch nur darauf, entdeckt zu werden"."

"The life of a European venture capitalist is usually pretty civilized, punctuated by trips to the converted warehouses of London's trendy Silicon Roundabout neighborhood or Berlin's stately Prenzlauer Berg district, where entrepreneurs swap ideas in Vietnamese restaurants and faux-dive coffee shops. Dmitry Chikhachev of Moscow-based Runa Capital lives a less posh existence. Visiting cloud-computing software provider Jelastic, one of his investments, means a flight to Kiev, Ukraine's dusty capital, followed by a 100-mile drive on post-Soviet roads to the provincial town of Zhytomyr - a city best known for its museum of Cosmonaut memorabilia. There, Chikhachev subsists on Ukrainian staples like potato dumplings and cabbage rolls as he helps Jelastic, founded in 2010 by a Russian-Ukrainian programmer duo, expand its business."

"Not so for Dmitry Chikhachev of Moscow-based Runa Capital, who lives a less posh existence. Visiting cloud-computing software provider Jelastic, one of his investments, means a flight to Kiev, Ukraine's dusty capital, followed by a 100-mile drive on post-Soviet roads to the provincial town of Zhytomyr - a city perhaps best known for its museum of Cosmonaut memorabilia. There, Chikhachev subsists on Ukrainian staples like potato dumplings and cabbage rolls as he helps Jelastic Inc., founded in 2010 by a Russian-Ukrainian programmer duo, expand its business. "There are hundreds of hidden gems far from big cities," says Chikhachev. "The regional market of startups is only starting to be tapped.""

"To test how this deployment process look like, I've decided to put my Wicket tutorial web application online. It consist of three pages and two tables in database so I think it shouldn't be a too complicated process to deploy it online. And as a Java hosting service I've chosen Jelastic, recent winner of 2012 Duke's Choice Awards announced during JavaOne conference this year. Duke's Choice Award is something like a Oscar in the Java world, so I thought that Jelastic might be a good choice to start with."

"At JavaOne in San Francisco, Oracle announced the winners of the Duke's Choice Awards. For those not familiar with the awards, they're pretty much the Java Oscars, recognizing "extreme innovation in the world of Java technology." The awards honor an incredibly diverse range of efforts, with previous awardees including robotics companies, Motorola phones, and the MLB's fantasy baseball draft application and scoreboard. "This year's Duke's Choice Awards winners are spear-heading a truly diverse and creative set of Java-based projects, and their efforts are invaluable to the Java community," said Peter Utzschneider, vice president product management, Oracle."

"As far as we can tell, this is the first PaaS that Dr. Gosling has given his endorsement. We reached out to him to confirm it, and sure enough, it turns out that he is a very happy Jelastic user and is very excited about what he can do with it and what he will be doing with it in the near future."

"We have tested our system on Jelastic platform. Deployment and configuration is fairly simple. Jelastic's price tag is small enough – check their website for pricing. Jelastic is running all around the globe - you can find a hosting provider with scalable Jelastic solution on any continent."

"We are delighted to announce we have just teamed up with the guys at Jelastic to provide Logentries support for Jelastic users …. and to be perfectly honest we think it's totally Jelastic! Our friends at Jelastic are also excited, so much so they’ve blogged about it too!"

"Today, Saturday, I had a while, made my homework and had my first contact with the platform. Who is behind Jelastic? That was my first question so I took a look to the Jelastic web site."

"Jelastic is Java Paas (Platform as a Service) cloud for Java Server hosting. We can easily create the server instances (Tomcat, Glassfish) and SQL Instances (MySQL, PostgreSQL) and deploy the Java Web applications."

"For you folks hearing about us for the first time, JRebel is Java's most popular redeploy killer productivity tool for Java developers that instantly updates the running application whenever changes are made to class structures, resource files and framework configuration files."

"In this post I'm gonna write about elasticsearch and a way to deploy it within a Java servlet container as a war file. Since I'm playing around with Jelastic, why not try to deploy it to the cloud? Once again, I haven't done anything distributed in Jelastic, I only deployed a single elasticsearch node. As far as I know the multicast discovery doesn't work on Jelastic, like in all cloud platforms, but I haven't tried yet running more than one instance together."

"It's been a while since I don't blog, about eight months have gone really fast in Amsterdam! Meanwhile I wrote a few articles on SearchWorkings.org, the community site for search professionals. In fact, as you may have noticed from my tweets I'm getting more and more involved in enterprise search and open source projects. In this post I'm gonna write about Jelastic, the next generation of Java hosting platforms."

"Uncompress the downloaded archive to any folder .. let's say a directory called Solr3_6 These are the contents of the downloaded archive.."

"I thought I'd try one of the cloud java hosting platforms out there and I must say I'm delighted I did. I wanted to start up a Jelastic instance and throw Railo on it and see how it worked out."

"This weekend I wanted to experiment with a cloud solution for Java. In the past I tried out Google App Engine, but although easy and fast, it forces you to use the Google API and has some limitations. This time, the criteria for the platform was running nearly anything in a web container. And I think I found the perfect match..."

"These days Platform as a Service (PaaS) is one of my interest areas and I like to play with different PaaS providers to see how easy or difficult it is to develop and deploy application on them. The best thing about most of the current new generation PaaS systems is that they don't require you to change your code or learn new programming paradigm. Google App Engine is thing of past and is losing ground in PaaS race. For last six months I have spend some of my spare time on OpenShift and Cloud Foundry and one thing I can say is that I love both of the platforms. Today I decided to spend some time on Jelastic — seeing how easy or difficult is to deploy a simple Spring MongoDB application on it."

"Hivext Technologies wird seine Cloud-Plattform Jelastic im März offiziell in Nordamerika und Europa in Betrieb nehmen. Damit endet die Betaphase des Dienstes und auch die ersten Preise stehen fest. Gegenüber vergleichbaren Cloud-Diensten sollen sich die Gebühren mit Jelastic nicht nach Größe der eingesetzten Rechner richten, sondern es werde nach verbrauchten Ressourcen gerechnet. Hivext Technologies spricht hier von sogenannten "Cloudlets", die jeweils 128 MByte RAM und eine zu einem 200 MHz-Prozessor äquivalente Rechenleistung aufweisen."

"McLean, Va., February 16, 2012 — ServInt, a pioneering provider of managed hosting for enterprises worldwide, today announced the pricing methodology behind Jelastic, its soon-to-be-released, cloud-based Java development platform."

"Well, January is gone and February is here. They say time flies when you are having fun. So much is going on here at Jelastic but there are a few things that you want to make sure that you keep in mind."

"I have been watching the Jelastic Cloud for almost a month and finally I gave it a try last week. The team behind Jelastic did all the ground works for us to get up and Running with Railo in their environment. I have configured Railo and created a sample job search application railoweb.akbarsait.com and hosted it in their Cloud in just 10 minutes time."

"JRuby + Jelastic = sweet option for developers? The Jelastic Java server hosting platform for developers continues to expand. On the back of a refined Platform as a Service (PaaS) function at the end of last year, Jelastic now supports Java Virtual Machine-based applications written in languages including Scala, Groovy, and now the JRuby Java implementation of the Ruby language."

"For Java developers working on the nascent Jelastic Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), it now requires just a mouse click to activate new automated high availability (HA) features for their applications, the company announced. With that click, the Jelastic platform clusters each app server with another app server running on a separate virtual machine (VM), and replicates the sessions between them, explained the company's founder and CEO Ruslan Synytsky."

"Jelastic, creators of a PaaS (platform-as-a-service) infrastructure for Java application development has added new features to ensure automated high availability of Java apps. Jelastic lets devs run any Java app in the cloud without code changes and or rewrites for APIs, and offers a full range of support for creating, deploying, scaling and managing apps."

"Jelastic has been a popular multi-container PaaS solution for Java developments offering support for GlassFish among other container choices. It now fully supports the GlassFish 3.1.x clustering DAS-based architecture with horizontal scaling and session replication, both of which leverage Jelastic's NGINX-based load-balancing service."

"GlassFish is an open-source application server that can run any Java EE application, providing enterprise level reliability and performance with full clustering and has wide functionality range. Up until now, GlassFish could be used as a separate server within Jelastic, but now you have the option for high-availability for GlassFish, allowing for full instance and cluster replication."

"Do you want your new Liferay 6.1 GA1, with all these new functionalities: english and spanish, in the cloud? Follow these simple steps to achieve it, even if you want to use the new Setup Wizard."

"Here are some details on how the high availability features that we added few days ago work. This boils down to properly setting up session replication between Tomcat, GlassFish and Jetty web servers in Jelastic and configuring load balancer redirecting requests to them. Session replication then keeps copying session data between server instances thus providing high reliability, scalability, and perfect failover capabilities."

"Amazon's dedicated servers are a little bit expensive for me, at least for now. I used Amazon Micro Instances for testing purposes. They are working well for small projects like mine. However, for the production, I needed a high performance machine and I found Jelastic (thanks Emrah). It's really fantastic. It has an intuitive web front end, high performance machines, real time scaling and best of all it's free for beta testing period. I put a load balancer front, 4 Tomcat7 application servers behind it and lastly I added my MySQL DB at the end of the stack. Perfect config for now."

"You've created the next amazing blockbuster Java application and now need to find a server to run it, looking for a service which would be cost-effective, elastic, compatible with your application and tools, and not trying to lock you in."

"Good news for Java developers! Now you can build applications in Jelastic cloud instead of building them locally and uploading WAR archives. What are my benefits you may ask? First of all, it is faster and takes less traffic and here is why: package files can be quite large and need reupload every time your application changes Jelastic can take only the code changes from version control repository and rebuild your application in the cloud. Second, you get the efficiency of the cloud and can use your computer without any extra load."

"Jelastic has ramped up its Java server hosting platform for developers with a newly refined Platform‑as‑a‑Service (PaaS) function. Updating its central offering as it has, Jelastic now allows programmers to build and run a Java application in the cloud instead of from a personal computer. Using Jelastic's platform, developers can swap test and production environments to fine tune their work. There is also the option to clone an exact copy to test or prepare an application for production deployment."

"Ever thought of hosting your apps in ap App Server on the cloud? How about a cloud database so that you can put "data accessibility" feature on you app? I welcome you to Jelastic!"

"Hivext Technologies announced this week that its Java-based Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) Jelastic will be supporting the Nginx Web server."
