Intended for experienced developers and Linux system administrators, the Root VPS25 gives you complete autonomy, allowing you to configure and manage UNLIMITED domains whilst developing and hosting your own applications and databases.
Our strict contention limit of 50 to 1 or less VPS on every hardware node, means that you are always guaranteed consistent access to your allocation of processor and RAM resources. Ample disk space and monthly traffic also ensure that there is room to grow.
With Root SSH access under your choice of Fedora Core or CentOS operating systems, you are free to install and run your own choice of applications†. yum Package Manager meanwhile will let you keep your distribution and software constantly up-to-date, and the enormous breadth of Open Source tools and software out there means you will never be short of options.

† What Applications can I run on my Root VPS?
In the vast majority of cases, VPS users will be able to run exactly the same applications and software they would on a standard Linux Server with Root access. There are however certain restrictions in terms of the types of applications that you can run on the Hostway VPS Root architecture. These include but are not limited to the following:-
1. Applications that require the loading of a kernel module.
2. Applications that require a specific kernel module, or module version, that is not included in the existing distribution.
3. Applications that require direct access to block or character devices.
4. Applications that require NPTL.
If you are in any doubt as to whether your applications will work on our VPS machines, please do not hesitate to contact our sales department via email, or by telephone on the following number: +44 (0)207 538 8000
What should I not run on my Root VPS?
Whilst our VPS machines are robust, because of the nature of virtualisation, VPS are not suitable for certain types of activity. Please bear in mind that as a VPS administrator you will be sharing resources with a number of other users. Large memory- and CPU-intensive applications may not function at the desired level of performance. If you are planning such activity on the server, please consider contacting our Dedicated Sales Team.
