Atlas has launched representing the 7th overall hosting platform and first platform under the new company, Hostineer. Atlas is built off RHEL 7.3 and features PHP 7.1. Atlas is the first platform launched from the second hypervisor, HV2, which uses faster disks (15k vs 10k) over HV1 in addition to a 1 GB RAID cache, 12 cores, and 144 GB RAM. Given the amount of hardware available, Atlas will be the first platform to dynamically scale up and scale down CPU and memory as needed to cope with changes in traffic allowing bursts up to 8 dedicated cores and 72 GB RAM reducing – if not eliminating – slowdowns due to changes in traffic. Resource coordination comes through the Cloud Resouce Scaling Protocol (“CRSP”) that constantly aggregates resource utilization between the multiple platforms on a hypervisor, then either allocates or asks neighboring platforms to donate based upon resource availability.
