To fulfill the demand for affordably priced, but reliable hosting solutions, providers initiated an intermediate hosting solution - the VPS web hosting. This is a virtual imitation of a web hosting server that functions just like a : dedicated hosting server and is much more feature-rich than any shared web hosting account. At the same time, as a number of accounts are set up on the same physical web hosting server and each client pays for their account, the price for a VPS web hosting package is much lower than the cost of a dedicated server. A small-scale VPS web hosting plan is slightly more high-priced than a hi-end shared website hosting plan, but its system resources surpass by far those of the shared website hosting plan.

VPS Web Hosting Virtualization Systems: OpenVZ and KVM

Each single account is insulated from all other accounts on the web hosting server, so each Virtual Private Server can run its own Operating System and be rebooted autonomously from the rest. The Virtual Servers are administered through a virtualization console where customers can have a look at all running tasks and terminate or reboot them, update server-side applications, take a look at the utilized and the remaining resources, and much more. OpenVZ, KVM, Virtual PC and VMware are just several instances of virtualization consoles used for creating and managing VPS web hosting server plans. They involve different requirements about the CPU architecture, the OSs they are compatible with, and so on. For instance, KVM can perform on physical machines with x86 or AMD64 processors, can be installed on a server running both Windows and Linux OSs, and permits both of these OSs to be installed on the actual virtual servers.

Managed VPS Web Hosting Solutions

The virtualization panel lends the customer the freedom to manage the VPS web hosting autonomously from the provider, saving you the time you'd have waited for their technical support staff to reboot a specific service or retrieve a backup. If the customer is not proficient, though, we have an optional upgrade that includes OS and software installation and update procedures, VPS web hosting backups, as well as dedicated admin support and troubleshooting procedures. We also have a handful of virtual server datacenter locations to pick from: the United States of America, the United Kingdom and Australia.

Web Hosting Control Panels for VPS Web Hosting

The domain names and the content on the virtual hosting server are managed via a hosting Control Panel interface, similar to a classic shared web hosting plan's. The distinction is that with website hosting plans, clients obtain one particular website hosting CP, while with a VPS web hosting account, providers traditionally give a number of website hosting CPs to select from, and the more experienced users can install and avail of the web hosting Control Panel they like. Certain virtualization consoles support installing a website hosting CP through them to render things simpler for the customer. Unfortunately, most web hosting Control Panels are not cost-free. Some of these demand a monthly fee (cPanel requests $13 USD/month, take a look at BuycPanel.com), while others ask for a license tax (DirectAdmin). There are other web hosting Control Panels that limit the number of the hosted domains (Plesk). While we speak of web hosting Control Panel-equipped VPS web hosting, it's useful to mention that, by default, all VPS web hosting packages offered by us come with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. The latter offers unmetered hosted domain allowance. Hepsia comes at no further licence cost, hence the monthly cost of the VPS server hosting plan selected by the customer does not fluctuate. Moreover, Hepsia perhaps has the greatest Domain Manager on the web hosting Control Panel marketplace.

CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu Driven VPS Web Hosting Packages

The web hosting Control Panel user interface allows clients to manage domain name, files, databases, File Transfer Protocol and e-mail address accounts, to monitor web traffic and load logs and to take a look at elaborate statistics regarding the utilized and the available system resources. Similar to the virtualization consoles, the web hosting Control Panels are intended to work under a certain Operating System. For example, cPanel, which is one of the most popular website hosting CPs, functions only under Linux CentOS, while Enkompass, which is tailored by the same corporation, performs exclusively under Windows. Other Control Panels like Plesk and Hepsia support several Operating Systems. Hepsia supports 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 has access to a separate set of functionalities controlling the levels below, so it is easy to create a reseller web hosting website and start making money by reselling web hosting packages to other individuals. As customers will monitor what percentage of the resources is consumed, but will not observe the real figures, even a low-end VPS server hosting account will be enough to run a small-size shared web hosting website hosting corporation and gain cash.

The VPS Web Hosting: an Autonomous, Moderately Priced Solution

A VPS web hosting is a comparatively cheap hosting service, but it is advanced enough to support online portals such as a busy online store or a big corporate site. As its management is simple, it is the preferred pick of both rookies and qualified customers.
