Media Temple Upgrades Hosting Platform for Faster Speed
Web hosting and cloud services provider Media Temple has released upgrades to the GRID, the company's hosting platform, to provide customers with a faster experience.
The company said the upgrade will enable customers to leverage an experience up to six times faster and provide a reliable place to host their websites.
Additionally, the company upgraded the platform in the following ways:
- PHP FastCGI has been deployed, enabling PHP-based websites to load faster.
- PageSpeed has been implemented, significantly improving page load times.
- PHP has been upgraded to 5.5. Managed backup and restoration is now available via CloudTech, with customers being able to opt for a one-time full site restoration or scheduled backups.
- CloudFare – including their latest product, RailGun, is now fully integrated and directly available from customers’ account centers.
- The company’s shared database server, SmartPool, has increased capacity and speed with Solid State Drives (SSDs) maintaining performance regardless of the resources used by other customers.
Media Temple co-founder and CEO Demian Sellfors said in a prepared statement that Media Temple's focus is on providing high performance to customers.
"We are constantly improving and upgrading our products any way we can," he added.
The company recently launched CloudTech Premium Support, offering customer service and client support by certified CloudTech engineers at the application code level.
