GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Keep a small piece of cloud-computing history close with this square porcelain fridge magnet celebrating Linode. Founded in 2003, the company became a recognizable name among Linux users and developers through its virtual private server hosting and later cloud infrastructure services. Its journey from Galloway, New Jersey, to Philadelphia, followed by the 2022 acquisition announcement, makes a compelling corporate-history keepsake. A thoughtful choice for technology collectors, longtime Linode users, and anyone nostalgic for the independent hosting era.
Linode was founded in 2003 by Christopher Aker as a provider of Linux-based virtual private server hosting. Its name combines the words Linux and node. The company moved its headquarters to Galloway, New Jersey, in 2008, then relocated in 2018 to the historic Corn Exchange National Bank building in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Over time, Linode expanded its cloud infrastructure services to include virtual machines with options such as high memory, dedicated CPU resources, and direct GPU access, as well as network storage and backup services. In September 2013, it introduced Longview, a Linux system performance monitoring package. In late October 2019, Linode launched S3-compatible object storage, and on November 11, 2019, it announced its managed Kubernetes engine at CNCF KubeCon. On February 15, 2022, Akamai Technologies announced its intent to acquire Linode for $900 million. The acquisition brought Linode’s developer-focused cloud computing capabilities into Akamai’s broader platform and security business.
