      <title>Rails Business Hosting Encourages Weekend Getaways</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Wow, it&amp;#8217;s only been two weeks since the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class="caps"&gt;PLANET ARGON&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; team &lt;a href="http://www.robbyonrails.com/articles/2006/05/11/rails-business-hosting-gets-a-holiday"&gt;announced&lt;/a&gt; our new suite of &lt;strong&gt;Rails Business Hosting&lt;/strong&gt; plans and the response has been great! Some of our existing customers are taking advantage of this and upgrading their accounts and moving to the new &lt;em&gt;exclusive resort of Rails hosting&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;A few people have asked some important questions about our new &lt;strong&gt;Rails Business Hosting&lt;/strong&gt; plans.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Can I use it as a reseller account?
	&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;No, this suite of plans is targeted towards businesses who need a more isolated environment for hosting their new web application running on Ruby on Rails! This would violate our 10-15 customers per server arrangement.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;/ul&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;How is this better than my own &lt;span class="caps"&gt;VPS&lt;/span&gt;?
	&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;We&amp;#8217;ll admit, a &lt;span class="caps"&gt;VPS&lt;/span&gt; is a nice option and would be a competitor to our new plans. However, one key difference is that &lt;strong&gt;we manage the server&lt;/strong&gt; for you. Not all developers are also Unix system administrators. We&amp;#8217;ve been hosting Rails applications for well over a year and understand the complexities that surround deployment and hosting them and leverage this experience when we architect our hosting environments.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;/ul&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;Do you have documentation for your new plans?
	&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Yes! We&amp;#8217;re modeling our environment to be very similar to our standard rails hosting plans, so the information being collected on the &lt;a href="http://docs.planetargon.com"&gt;&lt;span class="caps"&gt;PLANET ARGON&lt;/span&gt; Documentation Project&lt;/a&gt; is accurate. This also makes it easy for you to move from one of your current accounts to the new service as only a few variables will change.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;/ul&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;How many of you have taken a long vacation and not needed to worry about your servers and applications staying up? We&amp;#8217;re hoping to help you take that cruise, those three weeks on a tropical island, or the rafting trip your friends keep talking about.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;We&amp;#8217;re here so you don&amp;#8217;t have to be!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
