How many other Virtual Server accounts will share the hardware with me?
This is the great thing about Virtual Server 2005 and is one of the main reasons why Server Intellect has chosen this virtualization software. Virtual Server 2005 does not allow Virtual Servers to "steal" system resources. Each customer is allotted a set amount of disk space, CPU usage and Memory. A customer is not able to go over these set limits thus eliminating the possibility that customers will be able to negatively effect the performance of other Virtual Servers accounts by consuming more resources than they are allotted. Other virtualization software products DO NOT set these hard limits very well, giving the customer the ability to "steal" resources from other Virtual Servers accounts on the same hardware object. This results in sluggish performance and has resulted in giving Virtual Servers offerings a reputation of being less dependable. By using Virtual Server 2005 Server Intellect can set these hard limit resulting in a true and fair distribution of system resources.
In short, Server Intellect evenly distributes Virtual Servers accounts across powerful hardware objects in direct correlation to the available resources available on the particular server. Rest assured, Server Intellect does not oversell, overcrowd or overload our servers. We guarantee that you will have lightening fast performance from your Windows Virtual Server.
