AllPeers claimed this was because the network must have a single, stable server instance to function reliably.

Modern servers with two dual-core processors usually support four separate server instances.

Each server instance runs a physics simulation to manage the collisions and interactions of all objects in that region.

After several months of development, Linode opened for business and offered its first server instances to the public on June 16, 2003.

A user can create, launch, and terminate server instances as needed, paying by the hour for active servers, hence the term "elastic".

The proprietary extension to Openfire allows multiple server instances to work together in one clustered environment.

This allows up to 75 server instances to be contained in one process on the server.

Users can connect one of public servers or host own server instance directly from application.

Mount points are used to allow multimedia servers the ability to control multiple content sources and/or types on the same server instance.

The snapshots of a database must be on the same server instance as the database.
