2. VDS Power 30 Cluster-based virtual dedicated server.

It's great solution for customers need ultimate flexibility of the server software.

Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS) is a secure environment that looks, feels and works
like your own dedicated server. Even though there are multiple virtual servers running
on same physical hardware, you are securely separated from everyone else, essentially
'partitioning' the system into multiple execution environments. You are also guaranteed
a certain amount of resources that will be available exclusively for you, and are
limited in the resources you can use at peak.

The VDS Power is a powerful cluster-based solution that is perfect for mission-critical
applications.

Like our cluster-based virtual hosting, VDS Power will keep working even after a hardware
failure. It also gives you anough power to run high bandwidth site or e-commerce application.

VDS Power 30 Cluster-based features:
- Virtual CPU equivalent to Pentium-450
- 128 MB RAM
- 1 GB disk space
- 30 GB/mo data transfer included
- one IP address
- Control Panel

Most likely it was short-time connectivity problems.
Subcluster #2 is located in New York, bandwidth provider is Cogent. Scalability and security on subcluster #2 is still very high, but reability looks like traditional virtual hosting because of Cogent bandwidth. But it's very cheap...
