Reliable, Scalable, Supported Website Hosting
Rackspace Cloud Sites is a versatile platform for hosting blogs like gdgt—and your website.
Rackspace helps gdgt tell the world about the latest Apple® news and products by keeping gdgt's site up and running, even when their traffic is through the roof. During the last major Apple announcement—the release of the new iPad®—gdgt served over 55 million requests in the course of two hours. That's well over 100,000 concurrent connections—no easy feat.
What's more, during the keynote other media outlets covering Apple crashed under the massive load—leaving an ever-larger audience to seek out gdgt for the newest from Apple.
