What KVM virtualisation means for your server
Every Transcom VPS runs on true KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) virtualisation. This is the single most important thing to understand about the platform.
With KVM, the RAM, CPU and disk allocated to your plan are dedicated to your server — they are not shared with other customers and not oversold. This is different from container-based or shared hosting, where resources are pooled and a busy neighbour can slow you down.
What this gives you in practice:
- Predictable performance — the resources on your plan are the resources you actually get, which matters for production workloads.
- A real, isolated machine — your VPS behaves like a dedicated server, with its own kernel and full control over the operating system.
- No noisy-neighbour effect — because nothing is oversold, other customers' activity does not eat into your allocation.
Combined with fast NVMe storage and full root access, KVM is what lets you run demanding production workloads with confidence.
