Reliability

ProfiVPS.hu means reliable operating, high endurance virtual servers for all our clients.
Maintenances are announced at least one week before and are done as quickly as possible. There are planned maintenances at every half years (OS update, configuration optimization), while the quarter year maintenances are only done when required.

Will I get an invoice?

Yes, the ProfiVPS.hu is a legitimate Hungarian enterprise.

What is OpenVZ?

OpenVZ is a widely used virtualization platform. It does not do full virtualization, only so called paravirtualization. This means that the guest systems share one common os kernel that runs on the host server.
This kind of virtualization does not need the host to emulate the full hardware environment, so it gives the best performance.

The only con of OpenVZ is that it can olny run Linux based operating systems.

What is the Guaranteed Memory of the VPS

The Guaranteed Memory is always allocated from the physical memory (RAM) of the server. For further details please read the description of Burstable Memory below.

What is the Burstable Memory of the VPS?

OpenVZ VPSs do not have swap (virtual) memory. Instead, they get Burstable Memory. This part of the memory of the VPS is allocated from the physical memory of the host, as long as it has sufficent free RAM space. If the memory of the host is completly full, the Burstable Memory will be allocated from virtual memory (swap).
This also means that the VPS’s swap memory will be allocated from the substantially faster phisycal memory. In the interest of faster swap usage for our clients, the ProfiVPS.hu always maintains (and hereafter also will maintain) at least 10% FREE physical memory. Still, it is not advised to rely on the Burstable Memory for a long time as it's allocation may not be possible.

CPU frequency distribution:

The CPU frequency shows the maximal processing capacity of the VPS. If the processors of the hosts are fully employed then each VPS gets processing slices that is proportional to the VPS package.
