Virtual Dedicated Server HostingApps4Rent offers virtual dedicated servers powered by Microsoft’s Hyper-V platform as a superior alternative to dedicated server hosting, shared hosting, or popular virtual private server hosting. Hyper-V virtual dedicated server hosting is functionally similar to competing virtualization platforms such as VMware and Citrix Xen. As an added benefit, by using Microsoft's Hyper-V virtual server hosting, you may also save on some of the licensing costs for windows server license. Each virtual dedicated server performs and behaves exactly like a stand-alone server. |
Virtual Dedicated Server - Advantages over Shared Hosting and Dedicated Server
Virtual dedicated server hosting, commonly referred to as virtual private server hosting, occupies the market segment between less powerful shared hosting and more expensive dedicated server hosting model. Virtual server hosting offers many of the capabilities and features of dedicated servers, including administrator or root access and dedicated IP addresses, but at a much lower price. Besides the price, Hyper-V virtual server hosting offers on-the-fly flexibility and scalability that gives it an edge over dedicated server hosting. Users share a server, but because each virtual dedicated server is effectively isolated from other accounts, the user has full control over the virtual server hosting space.
Use your Hyper-V virtual server for application or web hosting, testing and development environments, product server consolidation, managing business continuity, or desktop virtualization, and numerous other uses.
