NVMe or Non-Volatile Memory Express is a communications standard/protocol used for storage devices. Unlike SATA and SAS, which were made to be backward-compatible with legacy storage media, NVMe is designed to fully leverage the benefits and speed of the latest in storage technology.

NVMe utilizes PCI-E (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express), an expansion card standard that has been around for several years. Up until now, PCI-E has been used for graphics cards, network cards, and general expansion of a computer's or server's hardware. Before NVMe, PCI-E-based SSDs existed - however, these were not standardized, and with fragmentation between vendors and firmware, PCI-E-based SSDs were ahead of their time and not ready for the enterprise market.

Now that NVMe is a standardized protocol for connecting storage through a PCI-E slot, servers and computers can fully harness the capabilities of the latest storage technology available today.

What makes NVMe's implementation special is the fact that through this PCI-E standard, direct 'lanes', or connections, now exist between the storage device and the CPU, without a controller in between. This allows for much higher-speed data transfer to occur. With the latest-generation NVMe drives found in our servers, read and write speeds are both over several gigabytes per second.

Not only are the read and write speeds drastically improved, the response time (or latency) between a data request and the reception of that data is also greatly reduced compared to SATA-based SSDs. With NVMe, latency drops to around one-third of the time it takes for SATA SSDs to respond to a data request. And to top it all off, the overhead required drops compared to SATA SSDs, allowing for even higher speeds.

RoseHosting was the first and only web hosting company in the world to offer commercial Linux virtual servers, starting back in 2001. To this day, we continue to be a leading managed VPS provider, serving thousands of clients worldwide.

Our lightning-fast NVMe hosting leaves competitors in the dust. With over 10 times the speed of typical SATA-based SSD drives, and with even better response times, you can enjoy near-instant load times and improve productivity while also improving the user experience of anyone using your server.

Our NVMe hosting is perfect for small businesses as well as individuals who need the best performance possible at a reasonable price point. Improve your clients' user experience on your websites with significantly lower load times across the board.

The speed alone makes us a step ahead of the competition, to begin with - however, we always focus on customer experience above all. This is why we offer best-in-the-industry tech support - we redefine what 'Fully-Managed' really means. Not only do we cover all bases regarding your server's health and performance, but we also go above and beyond to improve the security of your programs, configure new software, and even optimize programs uniquely to your setup, that way your NVMe hosting experience is as fast as possible. This is exclusive, enterprise-level tech support that's offered at an affordable price. We've always taken pride in this, and we will always keep our customer experience as our top priority.

NVMe hosting can benefit your use case, regardless of what application you plan to use your server for. All web servers and websites will see a large decrease in load times, databases can access data more quickly than with SSDs, and any program essentially has new life breathed into it with this new storage technology. No matter your idea, our NVMe hosting can give you peak performance.
