About VPS

What is VPS Hosting?

VPS hosting is a Virtual Private Server and virtual servers. A VPS hosting environment mimics a dedicated server in a shared hosting environment. This is technically both shared hosting and dedicated hosting.

VPS Hosting is one of several types of web hosting account you can choose from to host your website online. To have a website on the internet, you need to have your website files on the web server. Setting up and managing servers can not only be costly, but it is difficult as well. Purchasing web hosting allows one to rent space on a web server, making it easier for the average person to have a number of web sites online because all they need to do is upload the files on their website (no server setup is required on their part).

All three of these type of hosting account is similar in the fact that they all provide a web server to run your site. They differ in how they are setup, the features they offer, and the level of customization you can have with each. See more information about the VPS plans and features.
Why is different from the VPS Hosting Shared and Dedicated

With our dedicated server, you rent an entire server. It is optimal for people who have a very high traffic to their website or need to setup their servers in a very specific way. Not everyone needs to have a dedicated web server fully yet. If you just start with your website, you can save quite a bit of money if you rent a small portion of the server. Shared hosting is when you share a portion of the server with other users rather than rent the entire server to yourself.

If you consider a dedicated server and was not sure if it's right for you, maybe you'll need to get a VPS hosting.
How VPS Hosting Work?

The technology behind VPS hosting is similar to VMware or Virtual Box. This program allows you to run multiple virtual operating systems on one machine. For example, your desktop may run Windows 7, but you can also run other operating systems like Windows XP or Linux without the need to restart your computer.
Operating System Virtualization

VPS hosting us envionments function in the same way. While we have a single physical server, we can run multiple virtual operating system different to that one server. Each virtual operating system acts as if it is a dedicated server. It allows you to have all the benefits of a dedicated server at a fraction of the cost.

InMotion Hosting uses Parallels Virtuozzo Containers to virtualize Operative System. Each VPS hosting environment called as containers and physical servers each container is set to be called as a node.
