Re:Rackspace acquire Slicehost by mdasen on Wednesday October 22, 2008 @03:58PM (#340485)
It seems that Rackspace is going to turn Slicehost into "Mosso Cloud Servers": http://cloud.rackspace.com/cloudservers.jsp

If you read "Included with Every Cloud Server" it reads just like the Slicehost homepage including this gem: "Slicehost management portal for reboots and software installs".

I'm wondering whether Rackspace will keep around the Slicehost brand (ala HP/Compaq) or just put everything under the Mosso brand. I am excited for the possibility of an S3-like storage system under the same roof as Slicehost. Maybe Amazon will start thinking of making lower-powered EC2 instances to compete with Mosso?
