What is Virtual Machine Hosting Service
A virtual machine is only as efficient as the virtual environment in which it is hosted.Â
Virtual machine hosting, also known as Enterprise Cloud Hosting or Enterprise Virtualization Hosting, is a hosting service that allows organizations to host their applications and services in a virtualized environment.
You might have heard this often referred to as IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service). Each virtual server is isolated from the others, and each has its own operating system, memory, CPU, and storage space. This allows running multiple applications, websites, and mobile apps abstracted from the infrastructure of physical servers without having to worry about performance or security issues. Enterprise virtual machine hosting takes this technology to the next level by providing a scalable and secure environment for enterprise-level applications.
Benefits of virtual machine hosting services
Enterprise virtual machine hosting services have become increasingly popular in recent years and for a good reason. This technology offers a wide range of benefits to businesses of all sizes, including:
Savings
By using virtual machine hosting, your business can avoid the high costs associated with purchasing and maintaining physical hardware. Instead, you can simply rent the virtual machines you need from a hosting provider such as Exeo, paying only for the resources you use.
Performance
By isolating each virtual machine from the others, each VM has the resources it needs to perform at its best. VMs get 10Gbps local connectivity and our backbone runs on 40Gbps
Security
By isolating each virtual machine from the others, risk of a security breach affecting multiple VMs is reduced.
Flexiblity
By leveraging the power of cloud computing, businesses can quickly and easily scale their computing resources up or down as needed without the need for significant investments in new hardware. This allows businesses to stay competitive and responsive to changing market conditions while also minimizing costs and reducing risk.
Scalability
Easily add or remove VMs as needed and get the scalability needed to grow the business.

Cloud Service Provider Hosting Services FAQ
What is the difference between a virtual machine and a virtual host?
A virtual machine (VM) is a software program that creates a virtual computer within a physical computer. The VM has its own operating system, memory, CPU, and storage space, and it can run independently of the host computer. A virtual host is a physical computer that hosts multiple VMs. The virtual host provides the VMs with the resources they need to run, and it manages the VMs’ interactions with each other and with the physical hardware.
What types of virtual machine hosting are available?
There are many different types of virtual machine hosting available. Virtual machine vendors have their own advantages and disadvantages. Some of the most common types of virtual machine hosting include:
- Public cloud hosting:Â This is the most common type of virtual machine hosting. Public cloud VM hosting providers, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), offer a wide range of virtual machine instances to choose from, and they can be accessed from anywhere in the world.
- Private cloud hosting:Â This type of virtual machine hosting is hosted on a private network, and it is typically used by businesses that need to keep their data and applications secure.
- Hybrid cloud hosting:Â This type of virtual machine hosting combines public cloud and private cloud hosting. This allows businesses to get the best of both worlds, such as the scalability and flexibility of public cloud hosting, and the security and control of private cloud hosting.
- On-premises hosting:Â This type of virtual machine hosting is hosted on the business’s own premises. This gives businesses the most control over their data and applications, but it can also be more expensive than other types of virtual machine hosting.
The best VM hosting for a business will depend on its specific needs. Businesses that need to keep their data and applications secure should consider private cloud or hybrid cloud hosting. Businesses that need the scalability and flexibility of public cloud hosting can choose public cloud hosting. Businesses that want the most control over their data and applications can choose on-premises hosting.
How do companies implement backup and recovery solutions for virtual machine hosting services?
Companies can implement backup and recovery solutions at the host level or the guest level. The host-level solution involves backing up the entire virtual machine host, including disk images and configuration files for all the VMs running on the host.
The guest-level solution involves backing up folders and files within each VM through a backup agent.
How do cloud services hosting services enhance the scalability and flexibility of IT infrastructure?
Scaling up is as easy as creating new virtual machines or Kubernetes nodes. To scale down, you can delete virtual machines or reduce the resources allocated to existing virtual machines.
In terms of flexibility, hosting services makes it possible to choose the operating systems and applications that the user wants to run on their virtual machines. It’s also possible to move virtual machines between different physical servers as needed.
Can hosting services support high-availability configurations for critical applications?
Yes. In fact, our hosting services today offer high-availability features. We achieve this by removing single points of failure and keeping the application running even if one or more components of the system fail. All workloads that we host are distributed across multiple physical hosts hence achieving high-availability.
