ipHouse provides pre-installed and patched operating system for SV series stand-alone virtual servers. They are also available as templates for vmForge Virtual Data Center (VDC) servers. Windows, FreeBSD, or Ubuntu in either 32 bit or 64 bit versions (Windows 2008 Server R2 is 64 Bit only) are available.
If you have your own operating system or need something a bit different, ipHouse can mount your ISO image allowing you to install your own operating system on your SV series virtual server or you can do it yourself within your customer-managed vmForge VDC. Customer-provided and installed operating systems cannot be managed by ipHouse. Talk with our Sales Gurus for full details.
