Managed Virtual Private Server / Virtual Machine Hosting
Virtualisation is a technology which benefits most enterprise hosting requirements, and it is the solution to most (but not all) hosting needs. This essentially allows a single server do the job of multiple servers, by sharing its resources across multiple environments, or in the case of cloud hosting or virtualised cluster, the Virtual Servers move between the hosting nodes as the demand dynamically dictates it. This is secure, scalable and highly-available. Read more about our managed hosting virtual infrastructure.

**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.
