How is this going to be different than Fantastico that already comes with just about every CPanel hosting solution?

I don't know many hosts that don't allow 1-click install of tons of PHP apps already. I think Heroku mattered because of Ruby... right?



fantastico installs programs. i think the point of phpfog is to completely handle all aspects of the server and scaling it so that you can work on developing the application.


Fantastico really only works if it's part of the hosting solution. If you sign-up with any shared host offering CPanel, you'll probably have Fantastico, so basically, every CPanel host IS phpfog.

Sign-up, click to install WordPress, or whatever, and you're good to start customizing.


CPanel does not scale your websites nor does it help deploy changes.
