First Root UG OVZ Basic Edition Start [...], € 2.93/mo. on VPS

Hardware
-------------
Our OVZ Basic Edition was designed with one goal in mind: provide the best possible performance at fair costs.

To reach this goal all of our masternodes consists of wisely choosen and thoroughly tested components. As the power costs increased over the last years we choose very power efficent components. Therefore we only deploy Intel processors.

Software
------------
This edition is based on OpenVZ which gives you many advantages but is only able to run linux operation systems with a central managed kernel.

If you want to run a linux operation system and do not rely on a specific kernel version or module OpenVZ is the best virtualization for your needs and is way cheaper then KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine).

Additionally, OpenVZ allows unused ressources to be used by other VPS which provides a far better balancing between available and allocated ressources.

Overprovisioning
-----------------------
OpenVZ allows to overprovisioning masternode resources and this leads to one question: are you overprovisioning?

Most VPS Providers don't want to speak about overprovisioning but as part of our business philosophy we want to keep things as transparent as possible for our customers.

As almost every Hoster we are overprovisioning OpenVZ Masternode Resources.

But as the customer experience is our primary goal we closely monitor all parameters of our masternodes to ensure a proper operation and to make sure that no performance bottleneck impacts our customers vps.
