The differences between private, shared and dedicated servers hosting

A Virtual Private Server (or a VPS) is, as its name says, a virtualized server which plays the role of a dedicated server within a virtual hosting environment, both as a shared and a dedicated server hosting. Many people are not familiar with this concept, but actually, things are really simple: if you want to have an online website, you will need to put your web files on a server. Taking into consideration that buying, installing and managing this may be expensive and pretty complicated for those who lack experience in the field, using a web hosting allows you to easily rent space on a web server. Companies providing these types of services have various products, depending on the operating system you use and the workload, so there are many types of hosting accounts, such as Debian VPS hosting, available on the market, all you have to do is purchase one and you will be able to easily upload web files, manage your domains and so on, without installing any additional server. Depending on the manner in which they work, there are three main types of hosting accounts available: virtual private hosting, shared hosting and dedicated server hosting.

Since you have to choose the most suitable hosting account, you have to clearly understand the differences between these three types of products. Few people are aware of their benefits and features, and even less people know which one to choose, depending on their work. The dedicated server hosting is the best choice for those who need to manage a web site with high traffic, since it allows its user to rent an entire server. Furthermore, it can be easily customized, and for this reason you will be able to set up the server using even the most specific details. Since not everyone work in the virtual space on the highest level, you may not need a fully dedicated web server, unless you run a huge online platform. In case you are a beginner and you have started with your page only recently, there is no need for a dedicated server, so you can save some money by using a smaller part of the hosting server. The shared hosting server is ideal in this situation: you will not use the whole server only for yourself, but share it with other users. If you do think a dedicated serves is the best option, but you still do not know which one to choose, you should try a virtual private server hosting.

Even if you are not aware of the systems and technologies it uses, you can read some reviews and you will be able to make a choice in no time. The VPS hosting works just like a virtual box, that is, allows you to operate on more than one virtualized OSs, using only one computer. For instance, you can install many operating systems on your computer, such as Linux or Windows XP, and you can switch from one OS to the other, without having to turn off and on your computer.
