ElasticHosts virtual servers come in sizes to suit all businesses, from a basic, but fully capable server from £29 per month to high-end configurations with up to eight cores, 8 GB memory, 2 TB disk.
Our virtual servers are tailored for web hosting, unlike Amazon EC2, which is a less targeted virtualization solution.
| Feature | Description | ElasticHosts | Amazon EC2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic virtualization | Run multiple virtual servers on physical hardware. |  |
|
| Free choice of operating systems | Run any operating system designed for PC hardware and any software on your virtual server. | |
(Linux only) |
| Fully flexible sizing | Resize your server, changing your processor, memory, disk or bandwidth on demand to fit your current capacity needs. | |
(only 5: small, large, extra large, high-cpu medium, high-cpu extra large) |
| Automatic redundancy and failover | Rely on automatic reboot of your virtual server in the unlikely event that it terminates due to software or hardware failure, together with RAID redundant storage of your data, without the need to explicitly store to S3. | |
