Manage Across Regions

ServerTemplates™ work across Rackspace US and UK, meaning fewer configurations to manage.

Organize Your Instances

Using deployments to group servers together — for example, development, test, and production — keep large environments organized.

Launch & Scale in Context

With dynamic inputs and modular RightScripts™ and Chef recipes, your Rackspace instances are immediately functional — for instance, registering with a load-balancing pool or beginning database backups to Cloud Files.

Stage Entire Environments

RightScale gives you a way to stage Rackspace instances before launch or after termination, persisting configuration and monitoring data and enabling one-click disaster recovery and testing environments.

Rackspace-Ready Configurations

With a range of load balancer, app server, cache server, and database ServerTemplates, the MultiCloud Marketplace™ can get you up and running quickly.

Link to Public & Private Clouds

Create a cohesive hybrid cloud environment for backup, disaster recovery, geographic diversification, performance enhancement, or cost optimization.
