Virtual Private Servers, or VPS, continues to gain traction as an IT solution that can enhance your operations. Bridging the gap between shared hosting and dedicated hosting, VPS allows customers to have an independent solution at a lower cost than deploying physical, dedicated servers.
By leveraging industry leading virtualization software, OneNeck partitions one physical server into multiple servers so each has the appearance and capabilities of running on a dedicated platform. Each virtual server runs its own operating system. With superuser-level access, you can install almost any software that runs on the OS, as well as perform system maintenance. For example, each virtual private server can be independently rebooted.
You don't need to buy costly, individual servers. Instead, you'll access our infrastructure for capacity on demand. And, you don't have to worry about ramping up your IT operations to deploy new applications or respond to changing market conditions. OneNeck's VPS solutions create an efficient, dynamic IT environment for your company.
We provide the hardware, virtualization software, LAN and SAN infrastructure. You choose the number of virtual processors, the amount of allocated RAM and allocated disk space and we bundle it all with an attractive System Availability Service Level Agreement of 99.99%.
As an add-on to your existing services, OneNeck offers two levels of VPS; High Availability (HA) which can restart a VPS in a matter of minutes, and High Fault Tolerance (HFT) which provides zero downtime in the event of a hardware failure. The table below summarizes the features of OneNeck's VPS Solutions compared with traditional dedicated hardware deployments.
Feature Comparison |
OneNeck VPS Solutions* |
Dedicated Hardware |
Costs |
No Capital Expenditure. System can be tailored to fit application and Performance needs. |
Dedicated server hardware requires capital expenditure. Current hardware offerings typically require customers to over-buy hardware and waste resources. |
Infrastructure |
Infrastructure is built in, no need to pay for LAN, SAN, rack, or power. |
Requires separate LAN, SAN, rack and power infrastructure. |
Deployment |
Reduces both time and effort required to deploy. With the OneNeck VPS platform, new servers can be brought up in a matter of minutes in many cases. |
Extended deployments due to hardware vendor lead times. Requires resource time to "rack and stack" new server hardware. |
Recovery Time Objective (RTO) |
|
Typical dedicated hardware failure takes 4 or more hours for vendor repair. |
High Availability (HA) VPS. Provides cost effective, automated restart within minutes for all applications in the event of hardware or operating system failures. |
High Availability on dedicated hardware requires an investment in secondary hardware equipment.
|
High Fault Tolerance (HFT) VPS. Provides continuous Availability, without any data loss or downtime, to any application. |
High Fault-Tolerance on dedicated hardware also requires expensive, complex server clustering technologies that may not support your applications. |
Recovery Point Objective (RPO) |
Uses virtualization technologies that may offer many flexible DR options than dedicated hardware. |
Dependant on traditional DR methodology. |
*VPS is not appropriate for every application environment. Applications requiring real-time CPU access or intensive disk IO may be better suited on a dedicated platform. A OneNeck Implementation Architect will design a solution to fit your needs.
Regardless of your situation, OneNeck will provide the best solution available.
