Unlike traditional VPS hosting, SphereVM™ servers are hosted in a cloud, and have guaranteed hardware resources, including CPU, RAM and disk space. Our cloud configuration allows host servers to pool resources and dynamically scale to meet demands, ensuring your server can access the full hardware and computing resources that it was provisioned to have.
With an isolated operating system, independent of the host server, you can customize your virtual server without worry of host conflicts. You get full control of your virtual instance - that means you call the shots when it comes to the OS, server applications, and code. Full root or Administrator access makes it easy to manage your server from any remote location.

To host Magento websites, your virtual dedicated server will require a minimum of 1 GB memory.
Your virtual server comes with 1 dedicated IP address.
Enterprise-Grade F5 Hardware Load Balancing is optional and can be added at anytime! Spread internet traffic across two or more servers. Additionally, in the event of a server crash, the load balancer will redirect all traffic to the remaining online servers preventing application downtime. You never need to worry about buying new hardware or migrating to a new server to meet increasing traffic demands or huge traffic spikes. Simply add a SphereVM™ server and load balance it with your existing virtual machine(s) and you're go to go.
Dedicated servers come with a set amount of transfer built into the monthly cost and you pay for that amount of transfer whether you use it or not. Changes are you'll never use it all. With SphereVM™ servers, you pay only for the transfer used, reducing the monthly cost of your virtual server.
Example: If your monthly transfer is 10 GB, the cost would be $3.00 for that month.
Certain operating system configurations may have monthly costs and/or setup fees as outlined above. Those costs are in addition to the monthly cost of your SphereVM™ server as outlined above. No long term commitments are required. All virtual dedicated servers are month-to-month and are not included in our backup system. To arrange for backups please contact your customer support representative.
