| Virtual dedicated
servers offer many of the capabilities
and features of dedicated servers,
including admin (root) access and
dedicated IP addresses, but at a much
lower price. However, as a virtual
dedicated server is, indeed,
virtually dedicated, the customer
in fact shares the server space with a
small number of other customers. But
because each virtual dedicated server is
effectively isolated from other accounts
on the server, the user has full control
over the server space. As well, virtual
dedicated server plans feature very high
performance and available disk space and
bandwidth.
Virtual private servers, which enable
hosting providers to offer virtual
dedicated servers, are based on the
concept of partitions on mainframes that
allow each division to function as a
virtual standalone server dedicated to a
single customer. To ensure high and
reliable performance for all accounts,
our server boxes are partitioned in such
a way that each virtual dedicated server
operates almost entirely independently
of the other accounts that share the
server space. This means that with a
virtual dedicated server, you will enjoy
consistent, high performance, even when
usage peaks on the main server.
Virtual dedicated servers are
particularly useful for companies and
individuals that run higher-traffic
Websites or complex applications and
thus need the bandwidth, consistent
performance, and flexibility of a
virtual dedicated server.
All of our virtual dedicated servers
run on Red Hat Fedora Core 2 (Linux) or
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition
(Windows).
