Virtual machines

A virtual machine with root access, on a cluster we run ourselves. You choose the distribution; we keep the hypervisor, the storage and the network underneath it healthy.

The hardware is dedicated to us rather than shared, and the virtualisation on top is ours, not a resold cloud instance. That is why we can tell you which host your machine is on, move it live to another one, and resize it without rebuilding it.

What you get

Root access, genuinely

Full control of the guest operating system, console access when you lock yourself out, and your own firewall rules.

Live migration

Hardware maintenance does not mean downtime for you. Instances move between cluster nodes while running.

Resize without rebuilding

Add vCPU, memory or disk to a running workload. You do not need to provision a new machine and migrate to it.

Snapshots before you experiment

Take a snapshot, break something, roll back. Useful before an upgrade you are not sure about.

The marked option is where most clients start. It is not the one we earn most on.

Questions

Do you manage the operating system?

Only if you ask us to. By default a virtual machine is yours to run. If you would rather not patch it yourself, add managed cover and we will treat it like our own.

Where are the machines?

In data centre parks in Helsinki and Germany. Backups go to object storage in Amsterdam and to our own hardware in Piraeus, so every copy stays inside the EU. The hardware is dedicated to us and the virtualisation on top is ours. Our what we run on page maps the sites and lists what they are certified to.

Can I run my own hypervisor guest images?

Yes. Upload a disk image or install from ISO through the console.

Tell us what you are trying to run.

Describe the workload and we will tell you what it needs, what it costs, and whether we are the right people for it.
