Managed Virtual Private Server / Virtual Machine Hosting
Virtualisation is a technology which benefits most enterprise hosting requirements. This essentially allows a single server do the job of multiple servers, by sharing its resources across multiple environments. It is secure, scalable and highly-available.

**VPS Virtualisation
Context-based virtualisation provides virtualisation for GNU/Linux systems. This is accomplished
by kernel level isolation, which allows to run multiple virtual units at once. Those units are sufficiently isolated to guarantee the required
security, but utilise available resources efficiently, as they run on the same kernel. This particular virtual server model is
implemented through a combination of "security contexts", segmented routing, chroot, extended quotas and some other standard tools.
Full machine virtualisation
consists of full virtualisation of CPU,
motherboard, memory and CPU resources with dynamic recompilation of CPU
instructions for optimisation of applications running within the VPS
environment. Most virtualisation environments offer emulation of the host for guest
operating systems. Dynamic recompilation offers an improvement on this
approach: it dynamically compiles blocks of machine instructions the
first time they are executed, and later uses the translated code
directly when the code runs a second time, resulting in improved
performance for applications hosted on the Virtual Private Server.
