    You can't exactly host a VPS on Xeon Phi. They are used for stuff similar design to GPGPU workloads.

    Each of the nodes is laden with 64 GB of memory, each of the Phi elements come with 8 GB of memory for a total of 88 GB of memory per node for a total of full system memory at 1.404 petabytes.

    Oh dear.
