Cloud Hosting with VMware Servers

What is Cloud Hosting?

In simple terms, Cloud Hosting is a collection of pooled computing resources in the form of servers, CPUs, disk space and memory; each made available to any hosting solution in minutes.

VMware Hosting & VMware Servers

VMware, the industry’s premier virtualisation tool, allows us to manage and assign the Cloud’s resources to our clients, enabling them to dynamically scale their hosting solution in order to meet specific demands.

Think of Cloud Hosting as a traditional dedicated server but with far more resources available, offering superior performance, better reliability and increased scalability. Clients still enjoy full root access to the server and their own chosen dedicated operating system, but also take advantage of the numerous features and benefits of the Cloud.

Due to the way our platform is configured, 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.

What type of Cloud Hosting do Hyve provide?

Not all Cloud hosting uses the same computing technology, resulting in dramatically varying levels of scalability, reliability and performance. Our HP & VMware Cloud hosting platform uses genuine, purpose-built HP Blade server technology coupled with VMware (the industry’s premier virtualisation software), to control server resources. Hardware Configuration

We utilise multiple HP Blade enclosures which contain up to 16 Blades per enclosure. HP Blades are servers that are mounted vertically which allows more units to fit into a smaller amount of data centre space, resulting in energy savings.

Our storage arrays employ fibre channel disks connected via fibre optics which are the fastest disks in the world today, and the best way to connect storage devices to Blade servers. Read/write bottlenecks encountered when using classic VPS (Virtual Private Servers) and physical dedicated servers are now a thing of the past. Genuine Cloud Hosting

We have carefully selected this combination of technology and specific type and configuration of hardware because together, they provide scalability, reliability and performance above anything else available today.

Many other hosting providers advertise their offering as Cloud but in reality, they provide single stand-alone servers which are virtualised. Our genuine Cloud Hosting platform simply cannot be bettered.
