What is a Virtual Private Server?
VPS is a hosting environment that gives you your own Unix virtual machine. Each VPS is a private and protected area that operates as an independent server.
The VPS allows multiple customers to share the expense of hardware and network connections (and completely eliminate the hassle of maintaining it all) without sacrificing performance or the freedom to run whatever software you choose.
The secret behind VPS is how a single physical server is shared. Even though multiple customers share hardware, they do not share software.
Every VPS has its own complete directory structure and set of dedicated applications (Web server, mail server, etc.). And with VPS v2, each can be rebooted without affecting any other VPS on the physical server.
Fair Share* technology enhances protection and performance
Furthermore, even though hardware is shared, the VPS technology features 'fair share' scheduling of processes, memory, and network, so each VPS receives the resources it deserves.
It's the best defense in preventing any single VPS from abusing shared resources and, ultimately, keeping your website and applications performing consistently.
You would have to purchase a dedicated server for hundreds of dollars per month to match the reliability, security, and flexibility of the VPS.
VPS technology provides an unparalleled level of reliability and security while still offering maximum freedom and flexibility at an affordable price.
