"Cloudserve saved me thousands of pounds as I didn't have to buy all the expensive hardware and software I thought I needed to replace all our old equipment. The monthly fee system is great as I just pay for what I use"

The key points about virtual server infrastructure
Our virtual infrastructure allows
you to grow, and is able to provide you with sufficient processing
power at all times. One key advantage is that the 'burst-able'
nature of Cloudserve resources gives you access to
significantly higher processor and memory levels than your plan
allocations - the grid system works constantly in the background to
make processing power available wherever it's required. Just like
with a dedicated server, your resources are guaranteed but, unlike
a dedicated server, you have much more power at your fingertips and
can expand at any time.
Buy as a service
Purchase just like you would
dedicated or managed hosting, but buy your resources as a service
rather than a commodity.
Reliability
Clouds are composed of multiple
redundant sites, which makes them perfect for business continuity
and disaster recovery.
Managed, patched and backed up
All virtual infrastructure includes
management of the OS, including patching. You'll have
responsibility for the configuration and the ability to easily
manage this, but the core OS itself will be patched for you. We
also ensure regular backups are taken, with snapshot technology
allowing you point in time recovery. We don't charge extra for
this, nor do we add on extra storage charges for the space required
to store the backups - it's all included.
Scale resources up and down
Utilising our grid system, you can
increase resources like RAM and CPU when you need them, on the fly,
and then reduce them when you don't. Dynamic servers offer truly
flexible computing that lets you take what you need and pay only
for what you use - all controlled by you via a simple control
panel.
No migrations
Avoid the trap of buying hardware
you quickly outgrow and having to continually migrate from server
to server - just scale resources as you need them.
Highly available
Unlike stand-alone dedicated
servers, or managed servers which use local storage (servers with
hard drives) and have a single point of failure, Cloudserve
uses pooled grid resources and fibre storage, which means your
virtual server won't fail you. Because of the grid computing model,
our dynamic servers don't suffer hard drive errors, broken fans or
corrupted disks. Our platform consists of highly available services
usually found in the most expensive enterprise deployments. We even
back our promises with SLAs guaranteeing 99.99% availability.
