Virtualisation: Miniserver VM® Technology
As we are an advocator of open-source software, Xen was the perfect platform for us, and being open source it allows us to avoid the high license costs of other hypervisors.
Why use Miniserver VM Cloud Servers?
Memset's Miniserver VMs are a highly-secure, highly-scalable Cloud Compute service built on top of the Open Source Xen hypervisor. This allows us to avoid the high license costs of other hypervisors. These savings are passed onto our customers by enabling our competitive cloud prices.
Although you may share your host server with several other Miniserver VMs, Xen segregates the resources and ensures that they are as secure as dedicated physical servers. Xen also manages the resources to ensure that one Miniserver cannot adversely impact the performance of all guests.
Flexibility
With a Miniserver VM, you have the flexibility you need to meet the demand on your server without having to pay for a more expensive dedicated server. Are you expecting a jump in traffic? Simply upgrade your Miniserver from your control panel for on-demand scalability; once your Miniserver has been restarted you'll benefit from increased capacity.
Security
You can rest assured that the Miniserver VM platform is backed by proven Dell hardware and mirrored disks to ensure uptime meets (and exceeds) our 99.95% guarantee.
Our Xen architecture has also passed ISO 27001 security accreditation, CESG IL2 accreditation, and IL3 accreditation.

If you have a Memstore account, you can snapshot your Miniserver to your Memstore. Snapshots can be used to aid in disaster recovery, to be used as a rollback restore point prior to a big upgrade, or alternatively to provision new Miniservers already configured to your liking.
