Web Wiz is pleased to announce our brand new range of Windows Server 2012 Cloud Server Hosting Packages using Hybrid Servers running on Microsoft Hyper-V 2012 Hypervisor.

The introduction of Windows Cloud Servers running your choice either Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2008 R2, creates a new category of performance and resilience with dedicated Solid State Hard Drive Storage, Dedicated RAM, and low CPU contention ratios with Continuous Replication (Backup) of Cloud Servers to redundant systems.

For information on the advantages of Cloud Server Hosting over traditional Dedicated Servers and Virtual Private Servers (VPS) have a look at our ' http://www.webwiz.net/cloud-servers/what-is-hyper-v-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - What is Microsoft Hyper-V Cloud Hosting? ' Page.

Cloud Servers are available as either unmanaged or Full Managed Cloud Servers. Our Fully Managed Windows Cloud Servers are custom set-up by Microsoft trained Server Engineers to the customers own requirements and are continued to be looked after with updates and live off network server monitoring that includes 245/7/365 Engineer alerts to maximise uptime.

Good morning.

Every so often I get bored and look around the internet, including other hosting providers and I have noticed prices on VPS and Cloud services dropping to ridiculously low levels in an attempt to win business.

So congratulations on saying Not Recommended due to memory requirements when talking about SQL Server on the cheapest option. Without a shadow of doubt you are right, it would be a disaster.

Bye

Ian

I think people often get confused with the cheap prices for Virtual Private Server (VPS) Hosting and the higher prices for other types of Virtual Servers such as Cloud Servers.

With the cheap VPS hosting usually at prices below £20 you have a single install of the Operating System and then all the customers have a container on top of that single operating system and share all resources with other customers. Often performance and stability is a problem with this type of Virtual Server.

Other types of Virtual Servers based on Hypervisors such as Microsoft Hyper-V and VmWare you have your own dedicated resources. You have your own Diskspace with your own Operating System installed on it, your own dedicated memory and often your own CPU resources. These run in the same way as a dedicated server, but with the flexibility advantages of being in a Cloud environment. As you have dedicated resources this type of Virtual Server hosting is usually allot more expensive.

This is why you will find such a wide range of pricing between different types of Virtual Servers and why it is worth finding if resources are shared or dedicated.

Our Cloud Servers are based on the more expensive Virtual Servers using Microsoft Hyper-V where you have your own dedicated resources and not the cheaper shared resources of VPS hosting.
