Web Hosting is more than an Apache web server on a linux box serving static web pages (HTML). The introduction of dynamic web sites utilizing PHP and ASP will make the requirements for server resources like CPU and RAM power have raised considerably. Even though the resources needed to provide quick and reliably the web site to the end user raised, there is no assurance of a web hosting provider that will reserve the resources needed for your website. There is where virtual private servers or VPS in short come to use. VPS is a part of the physical server, separated from the rest and reserved for the needs of the web site that will be hosted. By getting a VPS as your solution in web hosting, you will get guaranteed RAM, Disk Space and CPU share that will be reserved for your use and will not be accessible by anyone else. Several technologies can provide a VPS solution like OpenVZ, VMware ESX, Virtuozzo and Hyper-V. All of those technologies have advantages and disadvantages, making it unable to point to the overall best one. What can be considered true is that if your main use of a VPS is to host a web site then virtuozzo is the best solution as it is much faster than the other technologies regarding web site hosting and can provide better response rates almost identical as hosting the web site in a standalone physical server. Another major advantage of virtuozzo is the outstanding integration with Plesk Panel which is a control panel used by most webmasters in order to manage their web site. Finally since the price of maintaining a physical server just for hosting a web site might be more than the budget available, VPS’es are an excellent way to get what you want and save a significant amount of money. Virtual private servers in general can do anything that a physical server can do, ranging from game servers, IRC servers and online storage to mail servers.
