High Availability Virtual Dedicated Servers
High Availability (HA) VDSes on our VMWare-Powered DynaCluster
iHostXtremes virtual dedicated servers are provisioned by our High Availability DynaCluster, based on VMWare VSphere 4 technology. We suggest our high avilability dedicated servers as more affordable, more flexible alternative to the traditional dedicated servers. Since we are using true hardware virtualization, each virtual dedicated server performs and behaves exactly like a stand-alone server, only it reaps the many benefits of VMware Virtualizaiton Technology, including instant and near-instant failover into one or multiple datacenters should a physical server or datacenter fail, expandable memory, processory and fast SAN storage resources on demand,
VMware: The Proven Choice for Virtualization
VMware ESX was the iindustry’s first “bare-metal” hypervisor for x86 systems and is the most reliable and robust virtualization platform. Launched in 2001 and now in its fourth generation, VMware ESX
As a result, VMWare is the proven choice for virtualization from the desktop through the datacenter to the cloud. More than 150,000 customers of all sizes, including all Fortune 100, have chosen VMware.
In fact - 95% of the Fortune Global 500 are VMware customers, including: 50 out of top 50 Banks: Commercial & Saving, 10 out of the top 10 Aerospace and Defense Companies, 5 out of the 5 Global Airlines, 9 of the top 10 Chemical Companies, 5 of the top 5 Diversified Financial Companies, 5 of the top 5 Energy Companies, 4 of the top 4 Entertainment Companies, 10 out of the 10 Pharmaceutical Companies 4 of the top 4 Securities Companies.
VMware customers report rapid return on investment (ROI)—typically within 6-9 months. 93% of VMware vSphere customers use it in production environments.
DynaCluster (VMware-Based) VDS vs. shared hosting and VPS
Hosted VMware (virtual dedicated servers) are superior to shared hosting or to virtual private servers (VPS) because VDSes get their own dedicated operating system and are fully isolated from other virtual machines on the server hardware. VDS customers enjoy the security of complete separation from other clients, improved stability as their hosted service will not be bullied othe busy websites or VPSes service on the same box, AND, there is no single point of failure with our VDSes, as such, if one of the servers running your VDS failes, your VDS will be running almost instantly from another physical server (see graphic to the right).
DynaCluster (VMware-Based) VDS vs. Dedicated Hosting
Similar in the comparison to VPSes, DynaCluster Virtual Dedicated Servers are better than dedicated servers in terms of availability since they can be migrated from server to server within the cloud with no downtime. DynaCluster Virtual Dedicated Servers allow you to scale, or expand-on-demand without purchasing additional hardware. Security benefits are realized as well because VDSes are completely abstracted from the hardware layer, while still being isolated from other VDSes within the host server or cloud.
Industry professionals choose iHostXtremes DynaCluster VDSes and other VMware solutions from iHostXremes because of the inherent improved performance, security and uptime not found in single-server dedicated or VPS hosting. In addition to the technology, our industrly-leading Service Level Agreement, 24x7 management and support, and long uptime track-record make iHostXtremes the clear choice.
