SubHub Chooses Leading Drupal Cloud and Hybrid Hosting Provider Voxel as New Hosting Partner

Popular Drupal 7 Powered Web CMS Improves Uptime and Increases Performance with Voxel’s Cloud-Based Infrastructure

Cardiff, United Kingdom, 21 September 2011 - SubHub, the leader in enabling individuals and organizations to publish and make money from their content online, today announced that it has chosen Voxel, a leader in managed cloud and hybrid hosting, to provide the hosting infrastructure for its new Drupal 7-based platform.

SubHub, based in Cardiff, United Kingdom, has provided a managed subscription website platform since 2006. Its new Drupal 7-powered platform launched in November 2010 now hosts thousands of websites worldwide.
To support its rapid growth, SubHub needed a provider that could guarantee 100 percent network uptime, easily deal with traffic spikes and who really understood the hosting building blocks of the Drupal 7 technology on which the SubHub platform is based. Voxel fit the bill.

“SubHub’s mission is to enable anyone to profit from their passion, publishing and making money from their content on the web,” said Evan Rudowski, CEO of SubHub. “To do this we need a hosting partner that is highly reliable, responsive and proactive. They need to be able to handle a constantly growing user-base and large spikes in traffic. And our partner needs to provide 24 x7 x 365 support so that our customers can depend on us to always have their websites up and running. Voxel checks every box.”

“We’re pleased to be the hosting provider behind SubHub’s powerful Drupal 7 web CMS,” said Raul Martynek, CEO of Voxel.  “Voxel already powers some of the largest and most heavily trafficked Drupal websites on the Internet today, and we are happy to partner with SubHub to provide our hosting services to even more websites.  We look forward to working with SubHub long into the future.”

The new SubHub hosting infrastructure consists of two load balanced web servers built on dedicated VoxCLOUD instances and two VoxSERVER physical database servers with high performance SSD drives and additional NFS storage. SubHub will be able to manage all hosting services through Voxel’s Hosting API (hAPI).  hAPI allows SubHub to deploy, manage and monitor all Voxel services through a web browser, desktop application or from a mobile device.
