What is VPS Hosting?

VPS hosting is a type of hosting suited for people who have outgrown shared hosting. Where multiple sites reside on a single web server with shared hosting and have no guarantee of resources, VPS allows fewer users to share allocated segments of hard drive space, memory, and processor power.

A VPS runs its own copy of an operating system (OS), and customers may have super user-level access to that operating system instance, so they can install almost any software that runs on that OS.

For many purposes, they are functionally equivalent to a dedicated physical server, and being software-defined, are able to be much more easily created and configured. They are priced much lower than an equivalent physical server. However, as they share the underlying physical hardware with other VPS’s, performance may be lower, depending on the workload of any other executing virtual machines.

Our VPS Hosting gives you complete control over your servers and associated applications. Our expert staff will manage (optional) your VPS, you do not have to worry about anything at all and focus on what really matters, running your business.

VPS is usually chosen by Website owners with medium traffic levels that might/will exceed the limit of Shared Hosting Plans but also do not need the resources of a Dedicated Server. While customizing the VPS setup is in your hands, this type of web hosting is usually easier to manage overall because using it requires you to upload your files. With VPS hosting, you won’t be responsible for the server setup.
