What is Vps hosting ?

[jyotimiss123]

Hi friends,


I want to know that what is vps hosting ?

VPS hosting is a type of web hosting that uses Virtual Private Servers. Although the websites are hosted on the same physical machine, VPS allows each website to be fully independent as if each were on its own separate machine.
How VPS works

The easiest way to visualize how VPS work is to use the apartment analogy. Each virtual server, or "container", on the machine is like an apartment suite. You can install any software you like or restart your own container without affecting the other containers on the machine, much like how you can renovate your own suite without affecting the others.
On a shared hosting server, problems with one website might cause the entire server to go down, causing all of the other websites on that server to go down with it. This would not happen on a VPS machine because only the problematic container would go down, but the other containers would be unaffected.
Similarly, some high traffic websites in a shared hosting environment may hog all of the server's resources, thus causing other websites on that server to be unreachable. This would not happen on a VPS machine as each container may only use the resources that are allocated to it.
Why use VPS Hosting?

VPS is great as it slips in nicely and bridges the gap between shared hosting and dedicated hosting services. VPS will give you the independence and flexibility of a dedicated hosting service, but at the price of a high-end shared hosting service.
For users whose websites have outgrown their shared hosting service but can't quite afford a dedicated server, VPS hosting may be the best solution.

A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine sold as a service by an Internet hosting service.

A VPS runs its own copy of an operating system, and customers have superuser-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, but as they share the underlying physical hardware with other VPSs, performance may be lower, and may depend on the workload of other instances on the same hardware node.

Also, you can use VPS to run any of your trial programs to test them.
This is virtual machine just like yours.

I once faced with the fact that on a shared hosting does not work protected scripts, and they working fine on VPS hosting now.

VPS hosting is like a hybrid of shared and dedicated hosting. It acts a lot like dedicated hosting. It has an operating system, command line access, and so on. You can completely configure your own server from the ground up. However, it is a virtual machine. You are allotted a share of disk space, memory, processor access, and bandwidth on a parent server with other virtual servers, like shared hosting. It can be found at very reasonable prices, while allowing for performance and control that shared hosting does not provide.

you have soemthing like a dedicated server. Install any software, set your own limits. you have linux computer, not just hosting control panel.

VPS is like a smaller dedicated server that allows you to have 100% controll over what you run.

You can host resellers / hosting on your private vps servers and it's a part of dedicated servers

VPS hosting is a Virtual Private Server, and is a virtualized server. A VPS hosting environment mimics a dedicated server within a shared hosting environment. It is technically both shared hosting and dedicated hosting.

VPS (Virtual Private Server) is a form of virtual servers to be created by the method of dividing a physical server into multiple different servers have the same features as its own server (dedicated server), run as a shared resource material from the original physical server there. Each VPS is a completely separate system, partially separate CPU, RAM capacity, separate private HDD drive capacity, its own IP address and its own operating system, the user has full control over the root and may restart the system at any time.

This hosting guide is dedicated for those who wish to learn more about virtual private server (VPS) or simply looking for how-to-choose advice in VPS hosting.

For those moving from shared to VPS, there is a lot to learn about security, updates etc. as it is *your* responsibility unless you paid for managed hosting.

Having recently done it, I wrote a book on how to build a secure vps, based on the cheapest but quality hosting and OpenVZ. Made it so simple, Mum could do it.

Happy to help and contribute what I know - Please pm me

VPS Hosting is one of several types of web hosting accounts you can choose from to host your website online. To have a website on the internet, you need to have your website files on a web server. Setting up and managing a server can not only be expensive, but difficult too. Purchasing web hosting allows someone to rent space on a web server, making it easier for the average person to have host a website online because all they need to do is upload their site files (no server setup is needed on their part).

Anyone know a good private VPS

[grumble]

Ramnode is good. I have a server there and build OpenVZ servers there for customers $50 - VERY secure Nginx etc. about 3 seconds to load a WPress site. This costs $20 per month for 4gb, 80gb premium server on ssd etc. I only build them- no profit for me in running them.

To buy managed or KVM it costs $40 upwards per month.

I also do a hosted / managed service at $4 per site. WPress sites load in 300ms!

Same site on shared is 6-10 seconds load time. Google expects 2-3 seconds for good ranking.

Message me if interested.Nospam /porn etc. Just professional sites.
