Image Virtual Private Server or most commonly known VPS is an independent piece of virtual hosting server, located in a large physical machine server. This hosting solution is known for providing more control at the hands of the user as the virtual server is not shared by other users. There is a cap on the extent of resources that can be used independently by a certain user, which is also sufficient for most growing small to medium sized businesses. Not only control, these VPSs also provide its users with better performance, stability, and security than any other shared server.

Best part of this hosting solution is that a user can use any software of his or choice because of the dedicated nature of the operating system enjoyed in the VPS hosting solution. Own copy of operating system is being run by these virtual private servers, thereby allowing users with unparalleled access to the OS. This is the reason why a user in a VPS can install any software of his or her choice, which is unavailable at shared servers.

There are two available operating systems for VPS services available in India. While one is Windows, the other is Linux. Now, the most common query asked by the users is – Which OS based server is best suited for him or her?

To know the answer, it is important to examine the benefits associated with each operating system. However, it should say at the very onset that referring one OS better than other is not possible because each of them have their own beneficial aspects and strong points. The choice of a server OS depends mainly on the preferences and needs of a user. Specifications, needs, databases, scripts, and prices are some of the most important factors for choosing a particular OS-based hosting solution.
 
Benefits of Linux VPS Server Hosting


• Linux operating system is an open source one, which is also available at free of cost.  This makes it a more affordable option for the users as availing Windows based server include operating system license. In case of Linux, most of the licenses are available free of cost.

• Linux VPS Solution comes with added flexibility, especially in terms of control panel flexibility. In case of Linux, two control panels can be used. While one is cPanel, the other is Plesk. However, in case of Windows VPS hosting solutions, only one control panel is available and that is Plesk. This is the reason why developers as well as businesses have a preference inclination towards Linux VPS Server Hosting in India.

• Perhaps the most beneficial feature of Linux VPS in India is that this open source operating system is most secure when it comes to viruses or malwares. Linux itself is very secure in nature. However, in case of Windows based VPS hosting solution a wide array of security software is required for combating script kiddies and severe SQL attacks.
