This website is hosted using the following server:

  • 16GB Unregistered DDR3 1600mhz ECC RAM

I have successfully run various services on this server in the past such as VMWare ESXi 5.5 and 6.0 and also Hyper-V Server but have now settled with a native installation of Windows Server 2012 R2 as I can run all of my virtualisation needs within the operating system.
