Virtual Private Servers
If you are looking to reduce your operational hosting costs at a time when data centre costs are spiralling, or wish to take advantage of the key benefits virtualisation solutions offer, a Xen platform may be the solution for you. Virtualisation is a current hot IT topic but the benefits are tangible and they are delivering huge advantages to early adopters - dramatically reducing server hardware and operating costs through savings on power, space, cooling and system maintenance.
Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting provides all the power and functionality of a dedicated Internet server, but allows customers to consolidate server systems onto a smaller number of physical servers/hardware. The technology incorporates the idea of virtualising an Enterprise grade platform into multiple virtual server systems. That means a number of VPS environments can function independently (incl. with different Operating Systems) on a single physical system.
Just as if it were running on a dedicated system, each VPS server runs its own set of Internet services that you can adapt to fit their specific needs with its own resources - RAM, Disk Storage, etc. In common with a stand-alone system, each virtual server receives a dedicated IP address, and may utilise the full functionality of the operating system, hosting web / mail / databases, in fact any application that a dedicated server could.
These operational and functional benefits come at a price significantly cheaper than an equivalent number of physical servers.
