Virtual Private Server (VPS) Hosting

Do you have multiple shared hosting packages but you're not ready for a dedicated server? In that case a Virtual Private Server is the perfect solution for you!

Virtual Private Server (VPS) has the same functionalities as a dedicated server and is the most advanced option in server virtualization technology. This technology divides a single physical server into multiple, yet isolated, Virtual Private Servers. Each VPS is fully equipped with scripts, users, processes, file systems and so on.

Reduction of cost, achieved by sharing the costs of the server's maintenance and hardware, is one of the reasons why a virtual server is better than a dedicated server. And if you require more resources than you subscribe too, upgrade and only pay for what else you need. Another reason is safety: if an OS is corrupted simply reset your current virtual server or set up a new if needed, within minutes.

The VPS suits ideally the needs of independent companies involved in the development of Internet sites. The VPS capabilities allows you to host any customers’ sites, while guaranteeing the freedom of choice as to the technologies applied, software components and script languages. The VPS allows small Internet providers to set up their individual hosting application while avoiding them extra costs relating to the hosting platform and a need to worry about the server operation.

What may be even more appealing is that with Virtual Private Server (VPS) web hosting, you have nearly full control over the most common areas of a website/server. This includes:

• Full control of the web server configuration (Apache), including PHP, mod_perl, and other server-side technologies and modules.
• Full control of the e-mail server (Sendmail) configuration.
• Full control of MySQL configuration.
• Full control of most Perl modules.

You also have access to other miscellaneous configuration files within your account and a greater ability to install and run custom software (should you choose to).
