The following information is divided into 4 key areas:
The Hyve Cloud – 3 Vital Elements
VMware virtualisation software and genuine HP Blade servers & Fibre Channel disks are pivotal elements contributing to the superior performance of The Hyve Cloud.
VMware – the Market Leader in Virtualisation
VMware provides the power and flexibility that enables us to assign and manage cloud resources and dynamically scale hosting solutions in order to meet specific demands. The Hyve Cloud is configured so that each server has full access to the cloud’s resources and is not throttled or restricted in any way, regardless of the activities of other servers on the platform. Powerful VMware features such as High Availability, vMotion and DRS allow us to maintain exceptional levels of control and availability.
HP Blade Servers – Custom-designed for the Cloud
At the heart of The Hyve Cloud lies genuine HP Blade server technology. HP Blades are purpose-built hardware servers that deliver enormous processing power. Custom-designed to excel under the heavy demand conditions of mission-critical cloud computing, they are mounted vertically within custom-built enclosures which allows for more units to fit into a smaller amount of data centre space. Up to 16 Blade servers can be housed within each enclosure resulting in significant energy savings.
Fibre Channel Disks – Light Speed Performance
A vital factor contributing to the high performance of The Hyve Cloud are the Fibre Channel disks used in our storage arrays. Fibre Channel or FC disks offer the best performance of all disk technology available today. Each FC disk is equipped with a cache which intelligently reads and writes at optimum times. Fibre Channel disks are ideal for for high transaction systems and completely eliminate read/write bottleneck issues found in inferior cloud and VPS systems. Connected to the Blade servers using fibre optic cables, each cloud server is able to write to up to 96 FC disks simultaneously providing significant performance advantages.
