Magento Containers

Containers for Magento are available in a semi-dedicated and dedicated configuration. Select the type of configuration below for plan details and pricing:

Our Dedicated Container comes with Varien's official support services for Magento and a number of value-added features.

What Are Containers?

With traditional web hosting, hundreds or even thousands of clients share an entire server and the services it runs. The server itself typically has lower end hardware to keep the costs down.

Containers are different. We start with enterprise-class hardware and divide the server up in to smaller servers called containers. Each of these containers has a fixed number of clients isolated on it.

Each of these containers has guaranteed resources and its own set of services running. An easier way to picture it would be a number of small servers grouped together under one large, powerful server.

Shared vs. Semi-Dedicated vs. Dedicated

The real difference between our shared, semi-dedicated, and dedicated containers comes down to two things: the number of clients on a container, and the number of containers on a server. The chart below outlines the server and container configuration for our hosting plans:

Configuration Shared Semi-Dedicated Dedicated
Clients Per Container 25 5 1
Containers Per Server 10 10 10
Total Clients Per Server 250 50 10

Less Really Is More

The less amount of clients on a container, and the less amount of containers on a server, ultimately means more resources available for your website and applications to run.
