VPS Web Hosting Unmasked

To answer the need for affordable, but reliable hosting services, providers presented a transitional website hosting environment - the VPS web hosting. This is a virtual emulation of a web server that acts quite like a : dedicated server and is much more feature-rich than any shared website hosting plan. On the other hand, as a number of accounts are hosted on the same physical machine and each person pays for their account, the price for a VPS web hosting solution is much lower than the price for a dedicated server. A small-scale VPS web hosting account is slightly more expensive than a hi-end shared web hosting account, but its resources surpass by far those of the shared website hosting account.

VPS Web Hosting Virtualization Systems: OpenVZ and KVM

Each separate account is isolated from the rest of the accounts on the server, so each Virtual Private Server can run a different OS and be restarted autonomously from the rest. The Virtual Servers are administered via a virtualization panel where clients can watch all running processes and terminate or restart them, update server-side software, monitor the consumed and the available system resources, and much more. OpenVZ, KVM, Virtual PC and VMware are only several examples of software platforms used for setting up and handling virtual private web hosting server packages. They have various requirements with regard to the CPU architecture, the OSs they support, etc. For instance, KVM can function on physical machines with x86 or AMD64 microprocessors, can be activated on a web server running both Windows and Linux OSs, and permits both of these Operating Systems to be activated on the actual virtual private hosting servers.

Managed VPS Web Hosting Solutions

The virtualization panel lends the user the freedom to administer the VPS web hosting independently from the provider, sparing you the time you'd have waited for their technical support staff to reboot a particular service or recover a backup. If the customer is not proficient, however, we provide an optional upgrade that includes Operating System and software application installation and update operations, VPS web hosting backups, as well as dedicated administrator support and troubleshooting operations. We also have several VPS server server farm facility locations to choose from: America, England and Australia.

Control Panels for VPS Web Hosting

The domain names and the content on the private virtual web server are manipulated via a web hosting Control Panel tool, similar to a typical shared web hosting account's. The contrast is that with website hosting plans, customers get one concrete web hosting Control Panel, while with a VPS web hosting package, web hosting providers commonly offer several hosting CPs to pick from, and the more knowledgeable customers can install and use the web hosting Control Panel they want. Certain virtualization platforms support installing a web hosting CP through them to make it easier for the client. Unluckily, most web hosting Control Panels are not free of charge. Some of those require a monthly fee (cPanel demands thirteen dollars/month, check BuycPanel.com), while others require a license fee (DirectAdmin). There are other website hosting CPs that limit the number of the hosted domains (Plesk). While we address web hosting Control Panel-equipped VPS web hosting, it's good to state that, by default, all VPS web hosting plans distributed by us are furnished with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. It offers unlimited hosted domain name quotas. Hepsia is available at no additional license cost, thus the monthly cost of the private virtual web server package selected by the customer does not change. Furthermore, Hepsia perhaps offers the greatest Domain Manager on the Control Panel market.

CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu Powered VPS Web Hosting Accounts

The web hosting Control Panel interface allows customers to administer domain name, files, databases, File Transfer Protocol and mailbox accounts, to see traffic and load logs and to take a glimpse at exhaustive stats about the utilized and the available system resources. Like the virtualization panels, the hosting Control Panels are intended to function under a certain OS. For example, cPanel, which is one of the most well known web hosting CPs, performs solely under Linux CentOS, while Enkompass, which is fabricated by the very same firm, runs solely under Windows. Other web hosting CPs such as Plesk and Hepsia are compatible with several OSs. Hepsia is compatible with the CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu Linux distributions. The advantage of certain web hosting CPs over others is that they have several control levels - administrator, reseller and customer. Each level can access a separate set of features governing the levels beneath, so it is simple to launch a reseller web hosting website and start making money by offering web hosting services to other persons. As customers will be aware of what percentage of the resources is consumed, but will not be aware of the actual numbers, even a small private virtual server hosting plan will be enough to set up a small shared web hosting website hosting corporation and earn capital.

The VPS Web Hosting: an Independent, Affordably Priced Solution

A VPS web hosting is a relatively cheap hosting service, but it is advanced enough to support web sites such as a highly visited web store or a large company portal. As its administration is simple, it is the favored choice of both novices and qualified customers.
