Service description

Version 2026.09.25

---

Our VMware platform offers a scalable and secure hosting solution with high availability (HA). In the event of a host failure, virtual machines are automatically relocated to a healthy host.

The service supports private and public networking, as well as routable network segments that enable communication between otherwise isolated private network segments.

VMware is suitable for business-critical workloads, corporate applications, and e-commerce environments. Learn more

Networking

VMware supports private network segments for isolating workloads and public connectivity where available.

Private network segments can be configured as routable, enabling communication between otherwise isolated segments within the private network. Routing is enabled per segment in the control panel.

Additional routing configuration may be required within the operating systems of the virtual machines communicating between segments.

For setup instructions and configuration examples, see Routable segments.
