Today we are proud to announce an official partnership with Rackspace® Hosting (NYSE: RAX) as the primary CMS for their Marketplace. Our hosted website builder & CMS makes it easy for Rackspace small business and nonprofit customers to design, deploy and grow beautiful and powerful websites. Gutensite's user-friendly technology and dedicated expert support helps clients make websites that accomplish real world conversion goals, which become a valuable part of their organization’s business strategy.
By leveraging Rackspace’s OpenStack®-based technologies, Gutensite makes it easy for those who already love Rackspace to build an amazing website on top of Rackspace’s hybrid cloud. Rackspace Cloud Servers ensure easy scaling when traffic and load increases as an organization grows.
“Gutensite is built with open source server software, databases and programming languages, and we chose Rackspace in part because of their shared commitment to OpenStack, the open source cloud computing platform for public and private clouds,” says co-founder & CEO Chadwick Meyer. “This commitment to open source principles and no restrictive contracts, reflects our shared values for making sure clients are empowered with the best solutions available and remain loyal only because of our superior product quality, service and support.”
Every individual Gutensite runs on a Rackspace Cloud Server. Clients can start in a simple, affordable multi-tenant environment or migrate to their own dedicated Cloud Server, which could be a cluster of load-balanced servers or any other custom configuration required. Scalability and customization is available for every client. And by providing hosting for each website, Gutensite ensures that the CMS continues to evolve to meet client’s needs over time and server infrastructure continues to perform at maximum efficiency.
“Selecting the most appropriate content management system for your project can be tricky,” said John Engates, Rackspace CTO. “By aligning efforts with Gutensite, we can offer a hybrid cloud solution, while Gutensite takes care of a site’s CMS needs so business owners can spend more time focusing on their bottom lines.”
We are honored to be part of this fantastic community and look forward to our ability to help more small businesses and nonprofits create websites that become integral parts of their success.
