The benefits of VMware VPS

High availability

Scale CPU, memory and storage to match your workloads. Add resources and storage capacity as your requirements grow – without investing in physical hardware.

Self-service and API

Create and manage virtual servers through our control panel. Use our API to automate provisioning and integrate VMware into your existing workflows.

Get started quickly with ready-to-use templates

Deploy quickly using ready-to-use templates for Windows Server and popular Linux distributions. You can also import existing appliances and continue working with the tools and environments you already use.

Flexible private networking

Build private networks that match your architecture. Isolate workloads across separate network segments and use routed segments when they need to communicate – without routing traffic over the public internet.

Backup when you need it

Add integrated backup to your virtual servers when your workloads require an additional layer of protection.

Move your VMware workloads to Glesys

Bring your existing virtual machines and keep running your applications on VMware – now on Glesys infrastructure.
There is no need to rebuild from scratch or invest in your own VMware platform. We can help you plan and carry out the migration, with support for importing and exporting virtual machines.

Move your VMware workloads to Glesys

Build hybrid solutions on your terms

Combine VMware at Glesys with your existing infrastructure to create an environment that fits your business. Connect virtual servers, data centres and other parts of your IT environment through the Glesys network – and migrate or expand at your own pace.

You do not need to replace your entire infrastructure at once. Keep what already works and extend it with networking, firewalls, backup and other services as your needs evolve.

What is VMware VPS?
expand_more
VMware VPS gives you a virtual server running on the Glesys VMware platform. You choose and manage your virtual servers and resources, while Glesys takes care of the underlying infrastructure and virtualization platform.

Both services provide virtual servers that you can configure and scale to meet your requirements. VMware VPS is built on VMware and is a good fit if VMware is already part of your environment or if you want to import existing virtual machines.

KVM VPS is based on KVM and offers a different set of options for areas such as distributions and regional availability. The right choice depends on your existing environment, technical requirements and workloads.
