Features of Engine Yard Managed IaaS PaaS

Enterprise-Grade Security

Engine Yard Managed combines our battle-tested ‘stack’ that is continually updated to ensure all security updates are implemented in a timely manner with enterprise-grade hardware including VLAN segmentation, fully configurable Cisco firewalls, two-factor authentication, IDS/IPS services, log aggregation and event correlation.

Monitoring & Alerting

Engine Yard Managed tracks essential resource utilization for your application and alerts you when additional capacity is needed, or if an application is behaving poorly. Storage, CPU and memory utilization levels are compared to pre-configured thresholds, and email alerts provide timely warnings.

Auditable & Compliant Infrastructure

The infrastructure behind Engine Yard Managed is fully auditable against all requirements of SAS70 Level II as a service provider. It has been successfully audited on a yearly basis at all US facilities and is compliant with NIST, CERT, FIPS, FISMA, NERC, GLBA, FDCC, COBIT, SOX and other certifications.

Extreme Scalability

Some of the world’s largest Rails sites run on Engine Yard Managed. When it comes to scaling, we’ve done it all so we know what works and what doesn’t. Scale with confidence by relying on the experts at Engine Yard to manage any computing capacity you require.

URL Availability Monitoring

Enterprise applications require services to be available at all times. Because of this, Engine Yard Managed monitors all your essential services, including configurable application URLs, and alerts you and your Engine Yard support team if there is any unexpected downtime.

Customizable Hardware Environment

Many applications have unique hardware requirements that may fall outside the scope of what an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) vendor can provide. The Engine Yard Managed is highly flexible and can easily incorporate the specific hardware or appliances that your application requires to succeed.

Replicated Database Tier

As your application scales, so should your database. With Engine Yard Managed, adding a database read replica is as simple as submitting a request. Scale your app by adding more read-only replicas, which can be used to perform complex analytics, and maintain high availability without sacrificing performance.

Utility Tier

Most enterprise web applications require specialized components outside of the application and database tier. With Engine Yard Managed, you can easily create a utility instance tier to host components and services such as cronjobs, job queues, and full text searching. Simply add new servers for repeatable deploys of custom applications or to offload complex processing to dedicated servers.
