Ninefold's Cloud Booster program - which is aimed at helping startups get off the ground - has a new participant in the form of Melbourne and Sydney based Blue Chilli.

Venture technology agency Blue Chilli has joined the Ninefold Cloud Booster program. The first of its new business to take advantage of free cloud hosting for a year is Housi.com.

Housi, which expects to launch on May 1, aims to automate the rental housing process for tenants and estate agents.

"Every little helps when you're bootstrapping," said Roland Flanagan, CEO of Housl. "Housing is, as we all know, a very emotive business - so when your new online business is in this space and you're reliant on technology that needs to process a vast amount of information quickly, to help people find homes, it's great peace of mind to know you've got a fast, scalable and locally hosted platform in Ninefold."

"We'd heard that Ninefold scored well on speed, and given performance is central to our strategy in picking the best go-to-market ideas, we jumped at the opportunity to become a Ninefold Cloud Booster partner," said Sebastien Eckersley-Maslin, founder of Blue Chilli. "We're aiming to launch one new online business per month in 2012, so are grateful for the foundation support Ninefold provides our community."
