In the past, we have had many requests on whether we offered general hosting beyond Git, Mercurial and Subversion repositories. Other than Direct File Hosting, we did not offer anything outside of repositories.

Well, all of that changes now with a new service called Mobius Hosting which offers general web hosting (PHP, Perl, Python, RoR with MySQL), email hosting (IMAP, POP, SMTP access) and DNS hosting.

In a nutshell, Mobius Hosting is a web and email hosting service based on cPanel. However, the major difference compared to other cPanel hosting providers out there is that it includes our support, and the infrastructure has been built experience from building and scaling XP-Dev.com. So, you can expect some good amount of performance, reliability and security. Infrastructure for Mobius Hosting has been built from the ground up, and resides entirely separate from XP-Dev.com.

Another thing that has been done for Mobius Hosting is to make it cost effective. Just like XP-Dev.com, pricing plans start from just $5/month.

In a lot of ways, Mobius Hosting is a natural extension of what we offer here on XP-Dev.com. Do give a shout if you have any questions or queries, or just drop a comment below!
