Many web site owners have outgrown their shared hosting environment and would like a dedicated presence but don't want to pay for their own dedicated server. Eommerce Host and Parallels solve this problem by providing you with an affordable, isolated solution. Parallels' unique virtualization technology ensures you will get isolation between your Virtual Private Server (VPS) and others on the physical server, as well as guaranteed service quality levels for disk space, bandwidth, memory and CPU.

How It Works

The hardware and expense of a VPS is shared by multiple customers, who each enjoy full root access with guaranteed resources and complete privacy. Multiple instances of the same service can be supported on a single server with complete isolation between each Private Server.

Overview

• Each VPS is 100% fully-managed by Ecommerce Host. No server administration experience necessary.
• Each VPS behaves exactly like an isolated stand-alone server.
• Each VPS has its own dedicated mail and database servers.
• Each will have its own processes, users, files and provides full root access.
• Each has its own IP addresses, port numbers, tables, filtering and routing rules.
• Each could have its own configuration files for the system and application software.
• Each could have its own versions of system libraries or modify existing ones.
• Each could delete, add, modify any file, including files in /root, and install its own application software or custom configure/modify root application software.
• Resource Guarantees - Includes CPU, disk space and network guarantees. Guarantees on memory - user and kernel, physical and virtual . Guarantees on disk I/O and many other critical resources (over 20).
• Performance Isolation - heavy traffic and CPU load on one Private Server will not have a negative effect on the other Private Servers.
• Functional Isolation - each Private Server has its own set of applications and services.
• Fault Isolation - errors created on Private Server will not affect other Private Servers. For example, a bad CGI script can crash a server, but with Virtuozzo's fault isolation, only the Private Server with the script will be affected.
• Address Isolation - each Private Server has its own set of IP addresses.
