Today Aptana announced Aptana Cloud Connect for Eclipse (v1.0), a free plugin for Eclipse-based IDEs that connects projects in Eclipse to Cloud hosting and related application life-cycle services.

If you are creating Web applications using Java, PHP or Rails, the Aptana Cloud Connect plugin for Eclipse lets you get all the benefits of scalable, on-demand Cloud hosting, with the ease of full IDE integration.

Aptana Cloud Connect (v1.0) lets you:

Instantly create Java, PHP, MySQL, and Ruby on Rails servers atop Cloud hosting infrastructure
Scale your web and database servers in the Cloud up or down anytime
Deploy your local Java (.war), PHP or Rails projects to your remote server

It also includes:

Remote database tools for exploring, querying, and working with your remote data
Automatic server and application monitoring with dashboard and email notifications
Hosted source repository (SVN or Git) for projects and team development

Optional HTML, CSS, Ajax, JavaScript and other code editors that integrate with the remote server

Try it out by adding Aptana Cloud Connect to your Eclipse 3.4, Zend, PDT, or other Eclipse 3.4 compatible IDE.
