VPS Hosting

Speed when it matters

We believe the speed that matters is the day-to-day performance of your site, not just a speedy initial setup. So we’ve set up our Cloud VPS servers with 100% SSDs, and built a network that ensures rapid connection times and plenty of redundancy. Our mission: to make sure your sites load faster than ever — even more so when your visitors are UK-based.

• SSD Drives

  Every server is hosted locally on the latest Samsung enterprise SSD drives, to remove common I/O problems typical with SANs and SATA/SAS storage.

• Enterprise Hardware

  Every server is using Hex core Intel CPUs with ECC memory. Further redundancy is provided by multiple power supplies.

• Bandwidth

  Our connectivity is provided by multiple carriers on separate paths out of our datacentre. All our hypervisors are connected to the internet at a minimum of 1Gb/sec.

We've crafted a reliable, resilient SSD cloud

In building our cloud network, ensuring great uptime has been a big priority. Our dynamic, auto-healing cloud replicates your data across multiple nodes in real time. If there’s a hardware failure, Cloud VPS will automatically change hypervisors, keeping you running without any disruption.

• Every hypervisor is connected to redundant switches via multiple 1Gb ethernet.
• Storage and backup networks use multiple bonded 10Gb optical connections.
• We also provide a private network interface for non-public traffic between virtual machines.
• Daily backups (30 snapshots stored) are available for an additional £20 per month.

Seamlessly manage your infrastructure

We think you should be in control of the way you use Krystals' Cloud VPS. So we’ve made sure everything scales easily and can be customised to fit. Pick your OS, from one of dozens we offer, or roll your own. Start with one machine and beef it up as you need or build a cluster and load balance them. Scale up, out or both. It’s your platform.

• KVM Technology

  Our cloud utilises KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) which gives total flexibility in operating system choice, deploy CentOS, RHEL, Ubuntu, Fedora, Gentoo or Windows with a couple of clicks.
• All of our VPS cloud servers have the latest hardware virtualisation features to compliment KVM.

We’ll support you if you need it

If you need that extra bit of help or just want peace of mind in knowing we've got your back, our UK-based support team are dedicated to keeping you in the cloud.

Our VPS are unmanaged as standard - we support the hardware, network and power - you look after setting it up and running it the way you want.

You can add our managed support add-on to your VPS; it's easily selectable when you place your order. Our management package adds your machine to our internal monitoring processes and we'll also install a suite of software that we've developed over a decade to help keep your server secure and in top working condition. We'll also help you with the setup of your server, configuration/tweaking of software and advise on migrating accounts.

You can give the cloud experience a try today, risk free, and see if we fit your needs.
