Oakley Capital has acquired Plesk in a deal valued at $105 million, making Plesk a completely independent company from Parallels.

According to a statement by Plesk on Friday, it plans to move beyond traditional web hosting into the hyperscale cloud – offering support for WordPress management, Docker and microservices, as well as simplified cloud management.

Can Plesk just make up their mind what they want to do, who they want to be?

Having seen their plans at WHD.global a couple months ago it seems like they want to move away from small hosters and focus on the really big players, companies like GoDaddy, 123-reg, etc.

Plesk is very obtuse, they need to take a retreat to some remote mountain to re-design the entire scheme they are using and the one thing they have to do is to switch from PostFix to Exim I mean PostFix is a great CORPORATE email server but for web hosting is just not that great, corporate environment do not change much, however, web hosting is always changing.

I think Plesk made out with the better end of that deal. I can't even recall when the last time a customer asked for that to be loaded.
