More than your typical shared hosting environment however, a VPS server shares hardware and network connections while providing dedicated privacy, performance and flexibility. What this provides is a sublime balance of the two; the dedicated server hosting features you need at a fraction of the cost.
VPS functions like a stand-alone server.
When logged in, you can command, execute and customize your server environment as if you had your own dedicated server.
Each VPS includes the following dedicated-like features:
- File System
- Users/Permissions
- Processes
- Full root access
- IP address(es)
- Firewall features (including Ports, Tables, Filtering and routing rules)
- Use of customized system libraries and configuration files
A VPS is designed to perform with SLAs in mind.
VPS servers are able to provide dedicated resources just like a dedicated server so that your website, application or other processes get absolute priority.
VPS does not equal VM (virtual machine).
A VPS is built as a layer of the host operating system. This limits the VPS OS to the OS of the host but provides greater efficiency as well as real-time resource allocations and more.
Guaranteed resources. Masterful control.
As you can see on our Custom VPS page, you can allocate and re-allocate VPS resources in real-time and on demand and without the help of a technician. Just point, click, upgrade!
- CPU
- RAM
- Disk Space
- Bandwidth
- Backup Storage
Each VPS can shrink or expand dynamically.
While guaranteed resources will always be met, a VPS will automatically expand to the near full potential of the server if those resources are available.
