Quick hosting solution comparison guide

Dedicated Servers
When choosing a dedicated server as a hosting solution, clients rent a server for their sole use from a hosting provider.

Managed Hosting
With managed hosting, a client would rent a dedicated server or servers and receive managed services as a hosting solution.

Managed Colocation
A variation on traditional colocation, Rackspace's managed colocation hosting solution provides a rented server with clients maintaining more control, though still receiving some managed services.

Managed Virtualisation by VMware
Managed Virtualisation by VMware is a dedicated virtual hosting solution, where dedicated servers can host multiple virtualised machines, allowing for energy savings during downtime and scalability at a moment's notice.

Public Cloud
This hosting solution offers the greatest flexibility and scalability, where clients share an infrastructure and pay only for what the hosted services they use.
