ClusterCS Review

Scenario #1:

Mike is the IT manager of a company that developed a website which provides booking throughout hotels in different European countries. The amount of data collected from the website needs to be stored on 3 dedicated servers. Mike acquired a 4th server in order to build a cluster. His plan is to create a MySQL cluster, and the 4th server is meant for load balancing in order to reduce strain from the other servers. Luckily Mike has already been using ClusterCS for managing his servers and he knows that using ClusterCS, the process of creating, managing and role assigning necessary for building a MySQL Cluster, will take just a few minutes, all that is required from him to do being just a few clicks in the panel. ClusterCS optimizes the whole process avoiding time consuming setups using command line/shell.

Scenario #2:

Ben has a very successful E-commerce website, he is selling personalized items for all tastes. He spent a lot of resources to create a very interactive and responsive website. He will experience the first Black Friday and Cyber Monday ever since he went live with it. He usually has organic traffic with a few loops of bigger traffic at predictable times, however he doesn`t know what to expect for Black Friday and also Cyber Monday, Fortunately he found out about ClusterCS and he is using it to manage his servers. Ben decided to use ClusterCS because of its unique traffic optimization feature. ClusterCS uses modern technologies to serve traffic in the best way possible in order to ensure high availability and clean caching. It also ensures a better page load offering all the website visitors a better experience while surfing Ben`s website. Ben can also add new servers or virtual machines to the system and have them up and running in a few minutes in case the traffic increase beyond any expectations.

Scenario #3:

John recently changed hosting for his news-magazine website. He needed a better infrastructure to ensure that his website is always online because he has been recently encountering many website downs, getting him in the uncomfortable situation of not being able to continue his business properly. He is not a very technical person, he is a journalist and he cannot make all the optimizations that are needed to be done, in order for his website to be always online and working, from the command line. He has searched a control panel capable of doing all of these processes automatically and also having a good support team in the background that will assist him to this process. He got in touch with ClusterCS and he got assigned a SysAdmin that will walk him through all that is needed. He added his server on ClusterCS, and also his domain, he was amazed that it only took few clicks and just 20 minutes of his time. By using ClusterCS monitoring graphs and advanced mysql reports, not-optimized website queries have been discovered quickly and resolved, which removed all the unnecessary strain on the server while generating the website pages. ClusterCS will monitor and restart services once they stop and will maintains logs with recent events that caught you by surprise. You can even see detailed MySQL queries that may have been problematic at that time. John is really happy with how responsive his website has become and also he is extremely satisfied of having a dedicated SysAdmin to assist him.
