Krypt Enhances the Cloud with vSphere 5
Just weeks after VMWorld 2011, our team of engineers have finished upgrading our Cloud infrastructure to support the lastest vSphere 5 by VMware. Krypt is excited to bring our customers the latest in cutting edge technology from the industry leaders. All this translates into more features, larger and faster servers, and more reliability for your Krypt Cloud servers and Private Cloud infrastructure.
Some important features for vSphere 5 include:
VMware vSphere 5 Features and BenefitsEnhancements and new features in VMware vSphere 5 will deliver better application performance and availability for all business-critical applications and introduce advanced automation capabilities to free IT from manual processes and be more responsive to the needs of the business, including:
- 4X larger VMs scale to support any application. With VMware vSphere 5, VMware will make it easier for customers to achieve 100 percent virtualization. VMware vSphere 5 will be capable of running virtual machines (VMs) that are four times more powerful than VMware vSphere 4, supporting up to 1 terabyte of memory and up to 32 virtual CPUs. These VMs will be able to process in excess of 1 million I/O operations per second, which will far surpass current requirements of even the most resource-intensive applications. For example, VMware vSphere 5 will be able to support a database that processes more than two billion transactions per day.
- Updates to vSphere High Availability (HA) offer the best protection against unplanned downtime. VMware vSphere 5 will feature a new HA architecture that is not only easier to set up (customers can get their applications set up with HA in minutes), but is more scalable and offers superior availability guarantees.
- Intelligent Policy Management: three new automation advancements will deliver cloud agility. VMware vSphere 5 will introduce three new features that automate datacenter resource management to help IT respond to the business faster while reducing operating expenses. These features will deliver intelligent policy management: a “set it and forget it” approach to datacenter resource management. Customers will define the policy and establish the operating parameters, and VMware vSphere 5 will do the rest. VMware vSphere 5 intelligent policy management features will include:
- Auto-Deploy will enable IT to automatically deploy servers “on the fly” and will be able to reduce the time it takes to deploy a datacenter with 40 servers from 20 hours to 10 minutes. Once the servers are up and running, Auto-Deploy will also automate the patching process, making it possible to instantly apply patches to many servers at once.
- Profile-Driven Storage will reduce the number of steps required to select storage resources by grouping storage according to user-defined policies (i.e. gold, silver, bronze). During the provisioning process, customers will simply click to specify which level of service the VM requires, and VMware vSphere will automatically use the storage resources that best align with that level of service.
- Storage DRS will extend the automated load balancing capabilities VMware first introduced in 2006 with Distributed Resource Scheduler™ to include storage characteristics. Once a customer has set the storage policy of a VM, Storage DRS will automatically manage the placement and balancing of the VM across storage resources.
By automating the ongoing resource allocations, Storage DRS will eliminate the need for IT to monitor or intervene, while ensuring the VM maintains the service level defined by its policy

Copy of the Official VMware Press Release:
VMware vCloud® Powered Program Gains Traction with Service Provider Ecosystem, Delivering Customers a Broad Array of Public Clouds Compatible with VMware Platform
More than 30 VMware Service Provider Partners deliver VMware vCloud® Powered Services Based on VMware vSphere®, vCloud DirectorTM and the vCloud API
PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 17, 2011 — VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), the global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, today announced that more than 30 service provider partners offer services that have met VMware criteria as “VMware vCloud® Powered” services. The VMware vCloud Powered program requires VMware Service Provider Program (VSPP) partners to offer services based on VMware vSphere® and vCloud DirectorTM while exposing the vCloud API and supporting the Open Virtualization Format (OVF). VMware vCloud Powered services offer on-demand access to virtual infrastructure from a public cloud, are built on a secure and robust platform, and enable application and API portability between a customer’s internal datacenter and the VMware vCloud Powered service of their choice.
Since its launch in February 2011, the VMware vCloud Powered program has gained more than 30 partners offering these services. Providers of vCloud Powered services are based in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Finland, Japan and Australia, offering Infrastructure as a Service to cater to a variety of use cases ranging from compute resources for pre-production environments to seasonal and transient workloads to disaster recovery in the cloud. The interest by partners suggests that public and hybrid clouds are not only a strategic imperative in organizations today, but also that customers across the globe are increasingly considering, evaluating and consuming compute services in the cloud.
VMware vCloud Powered services enable service provider customers to seamlessly move workloads from their VMware vSphere-based virtualized or private cloud environments to the VMware vCloud Powered service and back again. This application portability is key to providing customers with the agility they are looking for – applications do not need re-writes and the broadest set of legacy and existing applications can be supported.
“We are delighted to see such enthusiasm within our service provider ecosystem to offer VMware vCloud® Powered services,” said Dan Chu, vice president, cloud infrastructure and services, VMware. “Built on the foundation of VMware’s leading virtualization and cloud infrastructure technologies, VMware vCloud Powered services help assure customers that their workloads are secure and easily moved across their hybrid cloud environments – enabling customers to be more efficient and respond better to business demands on IT resources.”

Introducing My.Krypt.com. Our New Customer Panel.
Krypt’s web team has been working hard on a new project, focused on making it easier for users to manage their servers, invoices, and support tickets. After many hours we are proud to announce our hard work. My.Krypt.com will pave the way for new features and experiences for our customers when managing their hosting requirements.
In version one of My.Krypt.com, we focused on simplifying the interface for primary tasks when managing your server.
The Dashboard

The My.Krypt.com dashboard is aimed at giving you a quick overview of all your servers, support tickets and invoices. Users can get a good amount of information about all of their services with Krypt, without even having to leave the first page.
Server Details

We made sure to carefully layout vital information related to servers, so it’s easy to find what you need the minute the page loads up. You are able to see the status of the server, if it has unpaid invoices, it’s ip address and more.
Further more, we made sure to make it easy for users to submit tickets and get in touch with support related to the server.
Invoice Details

Managing your invoices has never been easier with this system. We made sure to pull the information that most users look for and place it right at the top of the page. Paying an invoice is as simple as selecting whatever payment method you wish to use, and hitting pay. It couldn’t be easier.
Support

We wanted our ticketing system to be as simple and straight forward for users as much as possible, and we feel we have done that with My.Krypt’s new support system. With our old system, we found users were having difficultly getting the right help right away due to the ticket being thrown into the wrong department. That’s why we have simplified our departments, and made them large clickable buttons. Once a user selects the department, they can actually search for a server the ticket is related too, compared to our older system of scrolling through a dropdown menu.

Once the ticket has been submitted, you can see all the details for the ticket as plain as day. The top of the ticket lists out all information that may be important to you, such as ticket status, ticket id, queue and estimated reply time.
