===== Virtualisation =====

[[Virtuozzo]]

See [[http://www.entitydata.com.au/vms.html|Virtual Machine Infrastructure]].

> We have implemented what we consider the most resource efficient, stable, scalable and cost-efficient virtualisation technology available. Our [[http://www.entitydata.com.au/index.html|VPS Hosting]] solution based on Parallels Virtuozzo® technology provides the incredible performance, scalability & high availability needed for mission-critical hosting purposes.
>
> Our software virtualisation solution based on Parallels Virtuozzo® offers near “bare-metal” performance of Virtual Servers by allowing direct access to the physical hardware unlike traditional Hypervisor solutions such as Citrix XenServer®. Our Virtual Servers are configured with "Reserved Resources" which is the amount of physical memory & processor usage reserved for a particular VPS. Virtual Servers, however, can burst beyond their Reserved Resources and even utilise the full power of the physical hardware.
