Elastra’s offering also supports clustered, scalable relational databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL and EnterpriseDB. Delivered on Amazon Web Services’ enterprise-grade cloud computing environment, Elastra Cloud Server On Demand 1.1 removes the manual processes and complexity of managing application infrastructure and middleware in the cloud, all without the need for scripting. “In this economic environment, Enterprise IT, ISVs and application development teams will be further-pressed to meet business objectives more quickly and with fewer resources,” said Nate Smith, vice president of product development, Elastra. “Elastra Cloud Server On Demand 1.1 enables application development and IT staff to focus on business-differentiating activities rather than mundane configuration management and reactive operational tasks. Our architectural approach provides cloud portability so customers can design and manage their private cloud environments.” Elastra Cloud Server On Demand 1.1 provides pre-configured clustered Apache Tomcat architecture designs and access to native Tomcat administration tools, allowing customers to deploy and manage their applications in the cloud using the industry-standard application infrastructure software and tools they are already trained to use.

Elastra Cloud Server On Demand 1.1 delivers a complete, scalable, pay-for-use application infrastructure environment. With Elastra Professional Services, users can tailor the offering to meet individual project needs. “Elastra delivers its offering on Amazon’s industry leading public cloud, giving customers peace-of-mind that their applications are running on the most robust, secure and scalable enterprise-grade solution,” added Smith. “Using Elastra Cloud Server On Demand, customers can achieve the benefits of cloud computing without previous experience or specialized knowledge of Amazon’s platform, with both minimal risk and seamless cloud portability.” Product Availability Elastra Cloud Server On Demand 1.1 is currently available.
