|
feature1_text: All our virtual machines use full virtualisation. This
|
|
|
|
|
way we can offer a variety of different operating systems that would
|
|
|
|
|
not be possible with container technologies alone.

feature2_text: Every data block of every virtual machine is saved
|
|
|
|
|
three times on three different computers. This way if one or even two
|
|
|
|
|
storage nodes fail at the same time, no data is lost. The underlying
|
|
|
|
|
technology we use is [CEPH](https://ceph.com).

We also offer creating special backup VMs in a geolocation different
|
|
|
|
|
data center so that even in a disaster case you still have a backup of
|

|
|
|
your data.

feature3_text: It is easy to start small and to grow your VM over
|
|
|
|
|
time. And you can grow quite far:
|
|
|
|
|
You need 64 cores in one VM? We have it. You need 1 TB of RAM in a VM?
|
|
|
|
|
We have it. You need 1 PB (1024 TB) Storage in your VM? You get it.

As you might know, all our data centers are built upon the principle
|
|
|
|
|
of sustainability. We reuse old factory halls, we acquire used
|
|
|
|
|
hardware (with fresh SSDs and fresh HDDs), we produce our own
|
|
|
|
|
electricity locally.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And importantly: we don't cool our servers. Instead we give each
|
|
|
|
|
server enough space to breath (on average: 4 square meters).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We have two different virtual machine offers:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [The future guiding IPv6 only hosting](https://ipv6onlyhosting.com)
|
|
|
|
|
* [The traditional dual stack hosting on DataCenterLight.ch](https://datacenterlight.ch)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The difference between them is that the **IPv6 Only hosting** comes
|
|
|
|
|
without IPv4 addresses and has a lower pricing. The lower pricing
|
|
|
|
|
comes from the scarcity of IPv4 addresses: there is only a very limited
|
|
|
|
|
pool of IPv4 addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both offers include an optional /64 IPv6 network that you receive on
|
|
|
|
|
request and both offers can also be extended with HDD storage for 1.5
|
|
|
|
|
CHF/month per 100 GB storage.
