Virtual Private Servers

SaskTel Managed Hosting offers Virtual Private Servers which allows a physical server to be divided into multiple virtual servers.

Businesses traditionally use dedicated servers to support specific applications. As the number of applications increases so does the number of servers required, resulting in time and money spent on acquiring and managing server technology.

An alternative, more cost effective solution is server virtualization using SaskTel Virtual Private Servers as part of a Managed Hosting solution. SaskTel Virtual Private Servers allow you to optimize your server usage by creating multiple virtual machines from one physical server.

Maintain your own private and secure virtual environment housed in SaskTel's world class, state-of-the-art SaskTel Data Centre. The infrastructure costs are carefully managed by SaskTel so you only pay for what you need.
