| Virtual Private Servers (VPS) | |
VPS stands for Virtual Private Server. VPS Hosting technology presents multiple isolated server environments on a single physical server. Each VPS uses its own hard disk space, RAM, CPU, Dedicated IP addresses and it can be rebooted independently. Virtual Private Servers allows multiple customers to share the expense of hardware and network connections without sacrificing privacy, performance or preference. VPS Hosting provides the flexibility to add and change modules and install your own software. VPS Hosting gives you the features and functionality of a dedicated server without the cost of building and maintaining one. In nearly every perspective you can see a VPS as if it’s a dedicated server. If you need to host unlimited domains, have complete control of your environment and run your own applications, then you will benefit from having a VPS hosting account. In addition, a VPS provides the ability to manage your dedicated environment directly through SSH. VPS host can also add a control panel like Cpanel or DirecAdmin. See below for the operating systems we currently have available for your VPS.
