Network Redux is pleased to announce that we have agreed to sponsor open source project, PHP Fusion!

PHP Fusion is an open source content management system written in php.  By storing users site content in a mySQL database and providing a comprehensive administrative system, PHP Fusion has quickly become the number one resource for open source CMS.  Maarten Kossen explains, “We have grown a lot over the past few years, and we currently have on average 20,000 downloads a month. We have 80 crew members, both developers and non-developers, and quite an active community.”

At it’s core, http://php-fusion.co.uk/news.php is a development and support site for PHP Fusion. Featuring news, forums, search, photo galleries and much more, PHP Fusion has grown from a single site in 2002 to 19 support sites in 2009.  As they outgrew their resources they began to look for a new host. PHP-Fusion approached us looking for hosting that would allow their multiple sites to run smoothly and have room to grow. Because of the weight and traffic it was agreed that a cloud solution would best suit their needs.  “We’re honored to have been chosen by the PHP-Fusion project for their hosting and development requirements.  It is quite humbling to help open source software developers power their hosting needs using the open source technologies which encompass the Redux Cloud,” stated Network Redux founder Thomas Brenneke.

The cloud solution offers root access and allows users to scale up and down at anytime by providing on demand servers and storage.  Fully managed, nightly backups, and 24/7/365 monitoring of external and internal Node health are just a few features that come baked in with the CR+ package.
