04 April, 2012 - London, UK - Zunicore, the public cloud division of global IT hosting company PEER 1 Hosting, announces today that it has registered 3700 businesses just four months after its official launch in November 2011.  Zunicore, a professional-grade cloud service, offers businesses an innovative public cloud with enterprise-level compute power and reliability, packaged for project-sized consumption.

Greg Rusu, General Manager of Zunicore, said: “We are growing at an unprecedented speed compared to some of our competitors. We launched the service in just 120 days and have very successfully sustained it through free sign-ups and rapid feature releases. We’re operating in a very competitive space and are constantly innovating to outshine our competitors.”

Douglas Cebik, Director of Business Development at Sorenson Media, a Zunicore customer, says: “With Zunicore we’re not locked into pre-set hardware configurations as with other cloud providers. We can define the most optimal CPU, memory and IO configurations for a given video encode job and even modify these configurations in real-time. This allows us to encode videos faster, and more cost effectively, without sacrificing our industry leading video quality."

Zunicore’s solution allows professional firms to instantly deploy a feature-rich and optimised cloud infrastructure and automatically scale computing resources to support their projects and programs within an easy-to-use interface. A fully user-controlled environment including customisable resource pools allows users to increase or decrease the size of their pool, or add virtual machines based on their business needs.
