What do we mean by Cloud VPS?
A Virtual Private Server means not a physical server computer. The VPS is a virtually created section of a high-performance server, where the virtualization software provides primarily mobility and easy manageability for you, in fact many hardware tasks are automatically managed by the system to make life easier and transparent for you.
Each VPS performs and executes exactly like a stand-alone server for its users and applications and it can be rebooted independently of any other boxes. Each cloud VPS has its own root access, users, IP addresses, memory, processes, files, applications, system libraries and configuration files much like a normal dedicated server.
Whilst many Cloud service providers hide the technology they use to generate their Cloud, we provide our Cloud VPS using software from VMware called vSphere, which includes the industry leading ESX hypervisor. VMware allows many VPS instances to run simultaneously, where each virtual server represents a complete system with processors, memory, storage and networking. Among these virtual servers are shared the physical resources of the underlying server. Part of the vSphere mechanism is the automatic failover redundancy, which is built into the software, which takes control and manages all aspects of the Cloud server assuring unrivalled uptime within the environment.
Advantages of Cloud VPS
Because POBox Hosting uses Cloud VPS, we have managed to maximise computing power while deploying less physical servers combined with common storage arrays that contain each Cloud VPS instance.
With Cloud VPS, all server instances are monitored continually and are fully scalable ~ if you need more bandwidth, disk space, CPU cycles or memory, all of these can be added within minutes with very little impact to your operating environment!
If any of the physical servers in the cloud infrastructure suffers failure, such as power supply or hard disk outage, then automatically, one of the other servers take over the functions of the disabled server, with this advanced computing environment you can be sure, that your server will be work without stopping and interruptions and your server, and its applications will be always available.
Above all, Cloud VPS means further advantages for you...
- You can reduce your IT Investment, because you don`t need to purchase, maintain or update.
- All sever instances are fully load balanced and continually monitored.
- You can access your data from anywhere, where there is internet access.
