VPS Hosting: Need More Control?

What a XEN powered VPS means for you

Unlike us, some VPS providers do not use true hardware virtualization, but instead use a software layer with which the guest machines must communicate. This software layer must then relay the commands to the operating system. This approach causes a reduction in performance as the software layer is shared among all of the guests on the host machine. Our host machines use true hardware virtualization, so that the guest machine accesses to the hardware as directly as possible, which adds a significant increase in performance.

Dedicated RAM

The most important factor in the smooth operation of a VPS is the amount of memory (RAM) available to it, the swap (Virtual RAM) it has available should only be used in exceptional circumstances, as in the event of unexpectedly high traffic.

Some VPS providers may offer a comparatively large quantity of memory, but this may be because the memory is being shared with every other VPS on the host machine, which means the VPS will not perform in the same way as with dedicated RAM which is what a XEN powered VPS offers to you.

Processing Power

Our host machines have more than one multiple core processors so that each VPS can have access to two or more processor cores, so that each VPS has plenty of processing power available when they need it.

Semi Dedicated

Vps Hosting offers you more control. Whether you are serving one website or multiple websites, vps can be a great advantage; offering you faster loading and processing than a typical shared hosting account. Vps hosting packages

Upgradeable and Customisable

Should you need to upgrade the RAM or Diskspace, this can be done by contacting one of our support staff on 1890 987000.

Root / Remote Desktop Access

You will have full root access (for linux) or Remote desktop access (for windows) to your VPS as you would with any dedicated server. This means you can install, compile and run software as you need it. Unless you are installing a control panel (such as cPanel) you will need to manage software and security updates yourself.

Semi Managed

While you have full control over your VPS and how it runs, if your vps should experience any kind of down time, one of our highly experienced staff would be alerted and would ensure the server was back up and running as quick as is possible.

Unlimited Domain Hosting

As it is your own server, you can decide how many websites you want to serve.
