The computing cloud just got bigger

I’ve already written about cloud computing and some of the reasons why I think it is a game changer, forever altering how we look and utilize web hosting (for the better). It looks like Rackspace believes the same, as evidenced by their annoucement yesterday that Mosso, a Rackspace subsidiary, will now offer cloud computing similar to Amazon Web Services. Specific product offering and pricing can be viewed by clicking on the image below:

It’s encouraging to see more players, especially industry leaders, jumping into this space along with Amazon. The result will be increased innovation, competition, and a more mature cloud computing offering. All of which benefit their customers. As the Mosso slogan says, it’s time to “Code, load and go.”
