Short for "Virtual Private Server", the VPS is a server used to host websites, storing files and databases. Unlike the dedicated server, it does not take the form of an entire physical machine, but of a virtual machine.
The host has in fact partitioned the machine into several virtual servers which simulate a physical server, each intended for a separate user. For the latter, no difference: he can do what he wants in the section dedicated to him, choose his own operating system, while enjoying the reliability of this type of hosting. The control is total, the features and customizations almost endless, without having to manage your own server from A to Z.
This is how it is different from shared hosting, which is better suited to low traffic websites, where users have the same resources in common.
Choosing a VPS for a website is surely the most reliable and fastest solution among the current hosting offers, with a very good value for money.
The configuration of a VPS server allows you to be protected from the worries generated by traffic spikes. The operation of other VPSs housed on the same physical machine has no impact on the server, unlike shared hosting.
The VPS for a website is the best solution, because it allows multiple customizations and adapts at will. The host remains a point of reference for any technical failure, which makes it a less cumbersome system to manage than having its own dedicated server.
It is ideal, by its configuration, for sites with high to heavy traffic, as well as for e-commerce sites. The data is confidential and protected, it is the appropriate tool to store a website allowing online payments. But beware: a VPS server requires solid technical knowledge to properly configure it and ensure its security.
The virtual private server or VPS offers the best of shared and dedicated hosting: it is the ideal in-between to host your website. It adapts to all profiles and can grow with ease.
