MONTREAL, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- VEXXHOST Inc., a leading Canadian cloud computing provider, has announced a massive revamp in its public cloud offerings during the Open Infrastructure Summit 2020.

New AMD Servers in Montreal Region

Upgraded Storage from SSD to NVMe

The company has upgraded storage from SSD to NVMe, offering the fastest hard drive in the market to its public cloud users, also featuring faster parallel read and write capabilities.

"Using Ceph, we made the switch from SSD to NVMe possible without any downtime," says Mohammed Naser, CEO of VEXXHOST. "The only change our users felt was in terms of better performance and speed after the switch," he added.

New Aggressive Pricing

Another exciting change for the clients of VEXXHOST is its new aggressive pricing strategy. 

"We wanted to make sure that cloud solutions are more accessible to users, especially considering the current Covid-19 pandemic situation," says CEO Naser. "Many companies are facing challenges and we would like to make things easier for them," he added.

According to VEXXHOST's new introductory pricing model, the hourly rate for a standard 2 core, 8 GB offering is just $0.055, compared to the market rate, which is $0.086, a difference of 36%. Higher core/memory offerings will also carry proportionate price reduction.
