Hosting
Our dedicated and virtual private server (VPS) platforms are designed to ensure that whatever your needs we are able to cater for them
Virtual private server (VPS) platforms
Taking advantage of the Citrix Xen platform we can reduce your operational hosting costs or consildate a number of dedicated server hosting platforms quickly and easily.
Similar to a dedicated server, each VPS is allocated a set amount of CPU power, memory and disk space. However unlike a dedicated server we have the ability to
dynamically increase your server's components effortlessly in accordance to your business and/or website requirements
Benefits of VPS include:
- Flexibility brought to you with the ability to increase your server's power as your business demands change
- All of the functionality of a dedicated server at a fraction of the cost
- Total control, you access your server using Terminal Services in the same manner as a dedicated server
- With administrative or root access, you can modify server configuration files, install applications or modify system software
- You are fully isolated from other users and actions on the server. No other
customer can slow down or affect your service
