What makes us Different

virtualDCS is a Cloud computing service provider, supplying virtual servers to customers on a rental basis. "So do many other providers", you might say. The big difference between us and the rest is HOW.

Utilising the power of Vmware virtualisation software our platform provides many benefits that other providers can currently only aspire to. If you want a technical explanation of how this works download our paper "Virtual environment under the covers", but the key benefits are as follows:

Every server you take on our platform has a virtual hot spare, so if the hardware your server is running on fails you can be up and running again automatically in 90 Seconds, this is faster than most cluster environments. Most other solutions run on a single machine.
Your server is completely independent from any other server in our platform, you can therefore use a vast number of operating systems on it. (A full list can be found using the links section on this page). Most other solutions are tied to a specific operating system.
Your server has its own CPU and memory allocation that is not shared with other servers, this prevents other busy servers having an effect on your performance. Most other solutions provide a small amount of memory and the ability to burst, assuming there enough is resources to do so.
Your servers are running on Enterprise class IBM hardware, with fast resilient components, and high mean time between failures, not cheap low end SME Server
