Magento Virtual Private Server Hosting - Overview
Magento runs in a Xen virtual private server environment. Each customer has their own instance of linux (ubuntu) and mysql with dedicated memory. CPU is reserved but burst permitted. The hosting environment is optimised for Magento based on Varien's recommendations. Customers have limited access to administer Magento but not root permissions.
