VM Hosting

Designed for Faculty Staff

Provides a unique domain computing environment (server) with an occupied virtual machine (VM).
By using this service, users can freely build and operate servers by granting administrator (root) privileges to users.
We can also customize the server environment by expanding the functions provided and changing the operating system according to the user's wishes.

Service Features and Benefits

  • No need to purchase and manage hardware, reducing the cost and effort required to operate servers
  • Free server construction is possible using an occupied server with root privileges, just as if you had purchased the actual machine.

  • Please refer to ホスティングサービス利用規則(PDF) for eligibility requirements.

  • Please obtain approval from your department's accounting department before use.
  • If you are using an OS other than Windows Server, please be sure to include your public key when applying for new use.
  • Basically, an application to host on KUINSDB is required to use this service.
    Please note that the application to be hosted on the KUINSDB and the related user fees are required separately from the application and user fees for this service.
  • IPv6 addresses are provided as a set of KUINS-II IPv4 and IPv6 addresses managed by the NIC to one virtual NIC. If you wish to use IPv6, please fill in "IPv6利用希望" in the "申請時メモ".
