Virtual Private Servers

Hello

We all are familiar with, or have heard about the concept of server partitioning in mainframe computers. However, owing to the development of virtualization software and technologies, this concept has undergone a tremendous transformation. It is now possible to make virtual partitions of a web hosting server. For instance, storage space in a dedicated server can be divided among individual website owners and resellers, who would have complete ownership and access to the root of their share in the server. Each of them can independently control their dedicated part of the server. Most website hosting companies now offer Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting; also called Virtual Dedicated Server hosting.

The process of splitting a server is called virtual private server. This is performed in a manner that each server is able to run its own operating system and can be rebooted without affecting other partitions of the same server. To sum up, all these server partitions run within a server and work as dedicated servers on sharing basis. This sharing of resources brings down costs drastically. Each partitioned server is as secure, flexible and reliable as a dedicated server is.

nice sharing thanx

First I would suggest putting together some detailed specifications of what you require from your web hosting

Hi

The level of web hosting above shared hosting, but below dedicated hosting. Users are allocated their own amount of dedicated resources

Thanks

Hi

A virtual private server (VPS, also referred to as Virtual Dedicated Server or VDS) is a method of splitting a server. Each virtual server can run its own full-fledged operating system, and each server can be independently rebooted.

The practice of partitioning a single server so that it appears as multiple servers has long been common practice in mainframe computers, but has seen a resurgence lately with the development of virtualization software and technologies for other architectures.


Thanks

Some web hosting companies call a Virtual Private Server a Virtual Dedicated Server/Dynamic Dedicated Server or the other way around. There are several challenges to consider when licensing proprietary software in multi-tenant virtual environments.
