Hyper-V VPS Hosting questions

[david.hirst]

Hi,

I'm new to EUKHOST and am currently investigating the Hyper-V VPS Hosting packages, primarily to host customised eCommerce websites I am developing to be PCI/DSS compliant for clients in the UK. I've been reading through the website and forum and have a few questions I haven't found answers to yet. Can anyone help?

1> Is the Windows 2008 Server operating system on the VPS that I will see and use 32-bit or 64-bit?
2> Does the VPS 02 package have exactly the same CPU "share" as the VPS 01 (i.e. you get more memory, bandwidth etc. but only the same processing power/share)?
3> Is it easy to migrate between VPS 01 and VPS 02 (say by EUKHOST changing a configuration somewhere) or should it be regarded as a true server to server migration requing new IP addresses, certificates, data transfer and so on?
3> What firewall and what anti-virus systems are included with the packages?
4> Does adding the control panel option actually remove or inhibit any functionality you would have without the control panel?
5> Are there any discounts for mutliple packages, for example if I were to want 2 or more Hyper-V VPS servers? I would probably be looking to incrementally increase the number of VPS servers, starting with just one, rather than requiring all at once from day one (as I transfer clients or get new clients).
6> Although I think I will be okay using one of the MS SQL Express options, does EUKHOST offer any dedicated MS SQL Server hosting in conjunction with VPS and if so at what cost?

Kind regards,

David.

I can answer question 5 for you.

There are several different eUKhost discount coupons available which can be used on any eUKhost web hosting service. You can take a look at eUKhost Reviews and eUKhost Discount Coupons where you will find a 10% recurring discount coupon code.

Hello David,

to eUKhost.

1> Is the Windows 2008 Server operating system on the VPS that I will see and use 32-bit or 64-bit?

Windows 2008 Server operating system on VPS will be 32bit.

2> Does the VPS 02 package have exactly the same CPU "share" as the VPS 01 (i.e. you get more memory, bandwidth etc. but only the same processing power/share)?

Thats right. Each VPS will have the same processing power/share.

3> Is it easy to migrate between VPS 01 and VPS 02 (say by EUKHOST changing a configuration somewhere) or should it be regarded as a true server to server migration requing new IP addresses, certificates, data transfer and so on?

Ip's and configuration will remain the same. Only your resources will be upgraded.

3> What firewall and what anti-virus systems are included with the packages?

We'll use default windows firewall along with Dr. Web Antivirus on VPS. Dr. Web antivirus will cost you £4 per month.

4> Does adding the control panel option actually remove or inhibit any functionality you would have without the control panel?

With control panel you'd be able to manage multiple domains,email accounts and DNS. Without control panel you will need to configure it manually.

5> Are there any discounts for mutliple packages, for example if I were to want 2 or more Hyper-V VPS servers? I would probably be looking to incrementally increase the number of VPS servers, starting with just one, rather than requiring all at once from day one (as I transfer clients or get new clients).

We do offer discount to our resellers. I've sent you a PM with all the details.

6> Although I think I will be okay using one of the MS SQL Express options, does EUKHOST offer any dedicated MS SQL Server hosting in conjunction with VPS and if so at what cost?

We can offer you dedicated MS SQL Server on VPS 02 plan only due to its memory usage. Sent you a PM with pricing details.
