What is VPS Hosting?

VPS stands for Virtual Private Server. It is a type of web hosting where a physical server is divided into multiple virtual servers. Each VPS functions as an independent server with its own resources.

How does VPS hosting work?

VPS hosting uses virtualization technology to divide a physical server into multiple isolated environments. Each VPS has its own:

• Allocated CPU power
• Guaranteed RAM memory
• Own storage space
• Independent operating system

• Root access - Full control over the server
• Scalability - Easy to scale up when needed

Who is VPS suitable for?

VPS hosting is ideal for:

• Growing websites with more traffic
• Webshops with many visitors
• Developers who need server access
• Businesses with specific software requirements
• Websites that need consistent good performance

Managed vs Unmanaged VPS

Managed VPS: The hosting provider manages the server, including updates and security. Ideal if you have no technical knowledge.

Unmanaged VPS: You are responsible for everything yourself. Cheaper, but requires technical knowledge.
