The Cloud Comes Down to Earth: Aestiva AnnouncesHosting Services for Building Corporate Apps

TORRANCE, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Aestiva Software - creator of the HTML/OS programming language for
web-browser-based corporate software applications - announced today a new
generation of hosting called "Cloud Hosting." The new generation is built around
the HTML/OS rapid-application-development environment. Unlike current hosting
services, Cloud Hosting is suited to custom applications. Aestiva says HTML/OS
is the world`s easiest to use language for creating browser-based multi-user
software making it ideal for this new generation of hosting.

Aestiva hopes Cloud Hosting will reduce software application development costs
by as much as 90 percent, bringing custom development costs "down to earth."
Also, unlike Cloud Computing offerings, this new generation of Cloud Hosting is
based on the HTML/OS standard. Applications developed on a Cloud Hosting service
can be moved in house or to another provider.

The service is also ideal for corporate managers who want to set up a
development site or build and test applications quickly without having to engage
their internal IT department`s resources, says the company.

"A goal of Aestiva`s Cloud Hosting partner program is to dramatically simplify
the process of building and deploying corporate web-browser-based applications,"
says David Silverberg, President of Aestiva.

The first Cloud Hosting services are set to come on-line in the next thirty
days.
