What is VPS web hosting

A VPS (Virtual Private Server) can be used for almost everything related to hosting (Apps, websites, blogs, files, data bases, etc). You can have the VPS with a control panel like cPanel/WHM, Plesk, etc which make its management easy!

The control panel which gives a web interface (and API, scripts) to interact with the operating system, services and applications installed on the VPS (or dedicated) server.

A VPS can be used for different purposes from the server role perspective: Describes the role assigned to the server based on which services and applications run on it. These are some examples.

  • Database servers
  • Web servers
  • DNS servers
  • File servers
  • Proxy servers
  • VPS servers
  • Game servers
  • Cache servers
  • All-in-one servers (Run multiple services at the same time)
  • etc.

You have to take into consideration that servers can be classified into two categories from the server reliability perspective:

  • Low-end servers
  • High-end server

From the resources/specs perspective:

  • High memory servers (For applications requiring a huge amount of memory)
  • High CPU servers (For applications requiring a huge amount of CPU processing)
  • High bandwidth servers (For applications requiring a huge amount of network bandwidth)
  • High disk servers (For applications requiring a huge amount of disk space and I/O)
  • etc.
