A virtual private server (VPS) is a simulated hardware of a host server that enables a remote operating system to run. In the terms of web developers, a web hosting company is able to host several ‘virtual’ servers through one “physical” (or host) server.
A “private” server is a separate server, rather than one that operates in cluster, but utilizes the hardware resources of RAM, CPU, Disk capacity and Network facilities of the “host” server. This means that a main host server can easily have access to 100GB disk space and 2 processors of 2GHz each and run 10 VPS web hosting servers on this hardware capacity.
VPS is mostly hosted on Linux, but there can also be Windows VPS hosting. Following information is about Linux VPS hosting.
Should you go for VPS Hosting?
VPS Hosting is intermediate to highly sophisticated web hosting plans, like PHP/MySQL, or PERL/CGI which offer a particular disk space for a shared hosting package, and co-location where the customer own and manage the hardware on a rented “rack space” so that their website can be hosted from a remote data center. This definitely means that if you have outgrown shared hosting, but co-location still seems out of budget then cheap VPS hosting is your best option.
VPS Hosting plans have the following distinct advantages::
-Having root access lets you install and set up the program according to your requirements. You can run PHP with PostgreSQL rather than MySQL etc.
-Apache’s Virtual Hosts lets you host unlimited websites.
-It’s easier to host mail server, FTP server and the likes.
-VPS provides you easy backup for files and data.
Workings of VPS
VPS is able to run on virtual programs from business enterprises like VMWare and Virtual PC by Microsoft, Open Source platforms like User Mode Linux, QEMU and the increasingly popular XEN. The Linux-based servers are about to turn to XEN technology as is evident from press support. This may even be offered with the next batch of Linux releases. This option is pretty feasible for web developers as the VPS Hosting Plans will then be widely available leading to cost reduction.
About VPS Account
You have the flexibility of getting root access to your server with the help of your VPS account so that you can become administrator of your Linux server and tweak it if you have good knowledge. It would be totally up to you to install, setup, run, and manage your program. Also if you don’t have any good knowledge of Linux hosting you can choose your operating system from the variety of “disk images” available in default configurations from different distributions like Debian or Fedora Core. When you have selected your disk image you can install and run it on your VPS account quickly. Just set up your account and log in to customize your server appropriately.
