The new PowerVPS cloud server offerings, called Fuse, Force, and Ignite, are designed to help small businesses save money, achieve scale, and grow without ever having to reconfigure any IT infrastructure. All cloud servers are hosted within world-class Equinix IBX and CoreSite data centers, the same world-class facilities used by Fortune 100 enterprises and leading Internet companies.

Persons looking for a hosting provider for their blog, small business website, or new idea, can use on-demand automated tools in the PowerVPS Control Panel for simple push-button setup of services. Setup on web-based applications like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Mambo, and osCommerce can be enabled by customers without any scripting knowledge or uploading of files. Additional service categories available in the Control Panel include eCommerce, Wikis, CRM, Polls and Surveys. Updates to installed services are automated seamlessly, enabling PowerVPS customers to enjoy the latest and greatest available services at all times.

Fuse, Force, and Ignite cloud servers are a complete managed solution including the operating system, core services management, system and security monitoring, and data backups. These cloud services are an ideal choice for companies that want to stick to their core business capabilities and leave technology management and support to professional hosting providers.
