Direct Order Link plugin & few updates from HostBill dev team

What we’ve recently been up to? It’s been a while since the last post here, in case you haven’t noticed yet we’re posting updates and plugins more often on our second blog – extras.hostbillapp.com. So whats new in HostBill?

  1. HostBill 3.0 has been released few days ago, featuring major domain management updates
  2. We’ve introduced OnApp:LoadBalancers integration as the only billing system on the market!
  3. Security has been significantly improved + we’ve added built-in security manager.
  4. Languages are no longer kept in database, you can easily manage them through Admin: Language manager
  5. I could go on like this for a long time…

…but why not develop something now? OK!

OnApp + HostBill integration – introducing Load Balancers module

We’ve been working a lot lately on polishing our OnApp integration, and as a result new module has been created.
OnApp Load Balancers module allows you to offer Load Balancing Clusters and Virtual Machine Autoscaling with your HostBill. Your customers will gain full control over their load balancers, allowing them to assign existing accounts in HostBill as cluster nodes with few mouse clicks.
