Give each environment its place.
Production applications, development tools, staging stacks and supporting services do different jobs. A virtual machine lets you size each environment around its role without starting with an entire physical machine.

Resources for
each environment.
Give your application a home that fits today. Choose the virtual resources, location and operating setup for the next stage of your project.

Isolated virtual environments. Allocations and resource sharing follow your selected service.
Your configuration
Make it your configuration.
- Resources
- vCPU, memory and storage defined per configuration
- Location
- Regional availability confirmed with the proposal
- Connectivity
- Port speed and sustained allowances stated separately
- Protection
- Backup and DDoS scope specified in the order
Configuration on requestScope, price and timing confirmed in your proposal.
Look beyond the headline number.
vCPU, RAM and storage belong in the same conversation. We also define the resource model, connectivity and platform limits, so you can assess the configuration against the way your application behaves.
Leave room for the next release.
Growing data, new users and a busier service can change the shape of a workload. Discuss the available upgrade path, any restart or migration window and the capacity you expect to need next.
Keep a route back.
Choose the backup and recovery measures your application needs. A snapshot can help with a rollback; an independent backup serves a different purpose. Plan for both where the workload calls for them.

How are virtual resources allocated?+
The proposal explains the resource model for your configuration, including any shared capacity and applicable limits. Tell us if a dedicated resource boundary is essential.
Can you help move an existing application?+
Share its software stack, data size and acceptable interruption. We can discuss migration assistance, responsibilities and the cutover plan as part of the proposal.
Can I run an email service?+
Ask us to confirm SMTP availability before ordering. It depends on the service and risk assessment; spam and unsolicited bulk messaging are prohibited.
The next step
Start with the
application.
Tell us about the stack, dataset and traffic you expect. We will work through the virtual resources, location and operating requirements with you.
