Texas-based SoftLayer (news, site), a provider of on-demand virtual data center services, has just announced that it now offers Parallel’s (news, site) Plesk Panel as an option with its CloudLayer platform - -cloud package for storage, computing and content delivery.

With this new offering, SoftLayer says it has only got its customers interests at heart by offering them more control over their IT environments, but what they’re also doing is cutting an even bigger slice of that great big pie in the cloud.

Applications On Demand

For those of you who don’t know Plesk Panel, it’s designed to simplify the management and administration of websites by automating a large number of tasks as well as freeing up operational resources for hosters.

While Parallels doesn’t say which version of Plesk Panel will actually ship with SofLayer, their most recent offering in this range is version 9.0, which, they say, provides an easy way to automate business processes.

And by offering the Plesk Panel on the CloudLayer platform, SoftLayer has given customers access to a whole new set of on-demand applications and services.

In fact, SoftLayer says this new partnership will offer cloud-based computing in enterprise-grade and open source systems within five minutes.
