All of our virtual dedicated servers are fully scalable. Unlike a traditional dedicated server, we can dynamically assign additional RAM, CPU and storage to your virtual machine as needed to handle fluctuating traffic and periods of peak demand.
Enterprise vApp inventory
Our Enterprise vApp inventory is available to meet all of your hosting requirements, including:
- LAMP vApp — one Linux virtual machine with Apache and PHP installed, plus one Linux virtual machine with MySQL 5.x installed. Both virtual machines are connected via a private network.
- High Availability LAMP vApp — the full LAMP vApp plus an additional Linux virtual machine with Apache and PHP installed and one NAS virtual machine. All virtual machines are connected via a private network.
VMDK hosting
In addition to our pre-installed offerings, VirtualMachines.net lets you upload your VMDK files to our servers. This means you can create virtual machines in your own development environment and deploy them quickly to production. We support virtual machine files in the following formats: VMDK (all formats), Microsoft Hyper-V, Microsoft Virtual Server, Microsoft Virtual PC and Parallels Desktop.
Virtual dedicated server security
We recommend adding a firewall and VPN appliance to all standard configurations to ensure robust security for your entire hosting infrastructure.
