Technology Used in the Virtual Private Servers
It is the unique, state-of-the-art technology utilized in the Virtual
Private server that distinguishes the Virtual Private Server from typical
shared-server hosting and allows the Virtual Private Server to look
and behave like a dedicated server. VPS Hosting, through it's partnership,
and experience in the industry is able to provide these solutions to
your company at a significant savings.
What is a Virtual Private Server?
The Virtual Private Server is a revolutionary hosting environment that
gives you your own Unix virtual machine. Each Virtual Server is a PRIVATE
and PROTECTED area that operates as an independent server.
The Virtual Private Server allows multiple customers to share the expense
of hardware and network connections (and completely eliminate the hassle
of maintaining it all), without sacrificing performance, security or
freedom!
The secret behind the Virtual Private Server system is how a single
physical server is shared. Even though multiple customers share hardware,
they do not share software! Every Virtual Private Server has its own
complete directory structure and set of dedicated applications (Web
server, mail server, etc.). Furthermore, even though hardware is shared,
the Technology used features 'fair share' scheduling of processes, memory,
and network, so each customer receives the resources it deserves. You
would have to purchase a dedicated server for hundreds of dollars per
month to match the reliability, security, and flexibility of the Virtual
Private Server system.
Perhaps all of this is best explained in an analogy. Think of the Virtual
Private Server as a condominium and the physical server as a complex
of condominiums. Within this complex certain resources like the land,
parking lot and clubhouse are shared. However, your condo is your own
space that is separate and protected from the other condos. You decide
how your condo will be decorated, not your neighbor or the complex manager.
On the other hand, the complex manager takes care of mowing the lawn
and cleaning the pool, so you don't have to hassle with these tasks.
Best of both worlds, right?
Only the Virtual Private Server system can provide an unparalleled
level of reliability and security while still offering maximum freedom
and flexibility at an affordable price.
