ForLinux is an Amazon Web Services Solutions provider

June 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Amazon Web Services offers a cost effective and rapidly scalable alternative to traditional hosting infrastructures  whilst the pay-as-you-use costing model makes it a very affordable option for businesses.
There are particular advantages to using this style of hosting infrastructure when creating test environments or temporary hosting solutions. The ability to rapidly scale operations within the Amazon Cloud also makes it an attractive option for solutions where the required capacity is unknown or traffic patterns are likely to be uneven.

Steve Nice, Technical Director at ForLinux, says “We are delighted to have been recognised for our ability to set up and support companies wishing to utilise the Amazon infrastructure.  At ForLinux we firmly believe in offering our customers flexibility and choice, as such we felt it important to extend our support services to include AWS.  Depending on the requirements of our clients we are able to offer unbiased advice as to which type of infrastructure is most suitable to support their business needs.  Over the last few months we have seen a marked increase in the number of companies that are utilising a combination of hosting environments to support the specific needs of individual projects or applications.”
