Virtual Private Server(VPS) - Features
More Secure and Stable than Virtual Hosting (Shared Web Hosting)
Different from shared hosting which stores hundreds of users in the same directory, the data within your VPS cannot be accessed by other users on the same physical server. For added stability, VPS technology completely isolates each VPS for the server resources. A crashed application (e.g. web server) in another client's VPS has no effect on your VPS.
Same features as a dedicated server
Each VPS has its own independent operating system, resources (including CPU, RAM, disk storage and IP). You can login your server using Remote Desktop / SSH to install any software needed or modify any system configuration.
Highest Flexibility
Given to you the administrative privileges of the operating system, you can have a full control to the server. You can install any software (e.g. database server) and modifying the configuration of the server (e.g. adding website) at anytime.
Shared Hosting vs. Virtual Dedicated Hosting
Shared Hosting
With a Shared hosting environment, hundreds of web accounts can be on the same server. Since all of the accounts are on the same server, they share the same operating system and applications.
VPS
VPS has its own operating system and can have almost the same function as the full server.
