Complete adoption of virtualization enables a seamless migration from reseller to VPS to dedicated server accounts.

Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) January 18, 2006 - X1Services.com, a Philadelphia based Hosting Service Provider, announced today that it has finished a six month long migration of all services to Virtuozzo based servers. Virtuozzo is an enterprise level virtualization technology providing extreme flexibility and stability.

In an industry where websites and online communities grow exponentially overnight, the ability to scale services for clients without interruption is essential. Using Virtuozzo we can easily move clients from a shared environment to dedicated and even load balanced solutions with minimal downtime. Our investment in this technology demonstrates X1Services dedication to providing our clients with the most stable environment and best performance possible at a great value. Said Darin Stockman, CEO of X1Services.

Virtuozzo - The Complete Server Automation and Virtualization Solution

Virtuozzo creates multiple isolated Virtual Private Servers (VPSs) on a single physical server to share hardware, licenses and management effort with maximum efficiency. Each VPS performs and executes exactly like a stand-alone server for its users and applications as it can be rebooted independently and has its own root access, users, IP addresses, memory, processes, files, applications, system libraries and configuration files. Light overhead and efficient design of Virtuozzo makes it the right virtualization choice for production servers with live applications and real-life data.

The basic Virtuozzo VPS components are:
Dynamic Real-time Partitioning Partition a physical server into 100s of VPSs, each with full dedicated server functionality
Resource Management Assign and control VPS resource parameters and re-allocate resources in real-time
Virtualization - Move VPSs and its application(s) between physical servers transparently with near-zero downtime
Mass Management - Manage 1000s of VPSs as easily as a single server and 100s of physical servers in unified way
