Cloud server provider Hostway announced on Tuesday its plans to add 18,000 square feet to its Tampa, Florida data center. This expansion is said to be part for their FlexCloud, cloud hosting expansion.  This will be their 12th data center in the world.

This announcement comes a day after Hostway launched Registry Services Corporation, the retail version of its domain registry back-end service.

According to the press release, Hostway’s expansion will house its FlexCloud Server services and provide lower latency connectivity for users in the US Eastern regions.

Hostway says its FlexCloud servers will be supported in its Austin and Tampa data centers. The Tampa facility will offer a disaster recovery and redundancy option for clients to protect data from single location failures, according to Hostway.

The company says its customers can manage two data center locations with a single control panel.

“Our Tampa data center provides our clients with the ability to easily provision secure cloud services in multiple locations for disaster recovery and redundancy,” Todd Benjamin, vice president of enterprise hosting for Hostway said in a statement. “This expansion is a part of our goal to introduce our secure and reliable FlexCloud Servers throughout North America and to further build our global presence.”
