GMO Cloud America Launches Cloud Servers For U.S. Market

Cloud Hosting Packages Discounted During Introductory Period


Newport Beach, CA - June 15, 2011 – Businesses are embracing the scalability and portability of cloud hosting and computing. To address this growing demand, GMO Cloud America, a full-service hosting and cloud computing solution provider and a subsidiary of GMO Cloud K.K., the number-one web hosting company in Japan, today announced the launch of its cloud hosting solutions for the U.S. market.


The company’s three pre-defined packages, GMO10, GMO20 and GMO30, are being offered at a significantly low introductory price for the first six months following launch. Its basic plan, GMO10, is offered at absolutely no charge during this period.


The company is recognized as a leader for delivering high-performance solutions in a cost-efficient manner along with some of the strongest controls available over cloud server resources such as CPU shares, RAM, HD and Port Speed. Using its signature subscription model, which offers far greater transparency than that which is currently available through most major cloud hosting providers, GMO Cloud America configures hosting resources independently and lets customers pay only for what they need.


“We are thrilled to extend our existing services into the U.S. market,” explained Ryo Tamura, President and CEO of GMO Cloud America Inc. “By offering the same solutions that propelled GMO Cloud K.K. to become Japan’s most sought-after name in cloud hosting, we can quickly address the needs of start-ups, small and mid-sized businesses, and large-scale enterprises.” The company’s solutions are already in use by leading-edge virtual solutions and recognized Fortune 500 companies.
