General Technology Categories M an ag ed RACKSPACE® HOSTING | WWW. RACKSPACE. COM
General Technology Categories + One Box, One Customer + Dedicated I/O & network resources - More expensive (>$599/mo) - Not all cloud services work with - Slower provisioning times* Good for dedicated, large-fast Databases, sensitive backups, DIY storage systems. * - Dedicated on “On. Metal” cloud API provisioned systems are much faster than traditional dedicated systems. RACKSPACE® HOSTING | WWW. RACKSPACE. COM
General Technology Categories VM ∙ VM ∙ VM ∙ + Less expensive (>$50/month) + Cloud/dedicated services can connect + Near instant provisioning - Many customers on VMs across many (shared) physical hosts - Shared resource pools of I/O, storage & network. Low cost, fast scaling, APIautomatable. Not as secure. RACKSPACE® HOSTING | WWW. RACKSPACE. COM
General Technology Categories VM ∙ VM ∙ VM ∙ VM ∙ + Each customer gets own cloud + Cloud & dedicated services work + Near instant provisioning + More secure physical boundaries + Dedicated I/O and CPU resources ~ Pricing varies depending on setup - Off site can't get normal RS network, power & hardware support. Great for security or resource sensitive apps. RACKSPACE® HOSTING | WWW. RACKSPACE. COM
General Technology Categories ∙∙ VM ∙ ∙ VM VM ∙ VM VM∙ ∙ VM ∙ VM ∙ HA Master DB My. Backups i. SCSI + Each customer cloud + dedicated + Mid range cost (>$600/month) + Cloud & dedicated services work + Near instant provisioning (cloud) + More secure physical boundaries - Somewhat more complex networking Great mix for mature systems.
