ZoneGun Blog

In the beginning there was a blog and here it is. Little to everyones knowledge behind the scenes here at ZoneGun HQ which looks very similar to our parent companies HQ the developers, sysadmins and cleaners are all going at their keyboards like madmen stopping only to gulp down cans of cola.  It would seem however that the cleaners are not most ideal coders/sysadmins and that while clean dishes and keyboards are great they don’t seem to make any difference to everyone else who are more focused on SSH windows and various editors, APIs and so on.

It’s a new day and while navigating Tower Bridge on my bike this morning I realised that while it was not a particularly sunny day or that it promised to be good in anyway whatsoever I seemed very happy. Very happy indeed.  So happy in fact that I was singing, while white van man gave me a few odd looks and the rest of the cycling elite (of which there are plenty in London) whizzed by, I in my suit trousers, cycled slowly on singing.

I am happy because I know that very soon a project which we have been talking about here and announced at FOWA (Future Of Web Apps) for the uninitiated, will be launching very very soon. We have put a slight twist on it, initially we set-out to create a platform for just Rails users and then as time went on decided, realised and decided again that everyone could benefit from our little project.  So in little under two weeks we will be launching ZoneGun to the world.

ZoneGun is a scalable hosting service which accommodates all, from storage through to compute all the boxes have been ticked.  There is to be both un-managed and managed options meaning that even the less keen on SSH windows can get involved.
