Saving on Dedicated Hosting With VPS

The benefits of graduating to Virtual Private Server hosting solution from a shared hosting solution has already been outline in a different article. But, what about dedicated hosting? It is a powerful and flexible solution, able to support any operation imaginable (given that enough servers are running the operation). The control that a user has over a dedicated server is outstanding. The costs are huge! Wait, that’s not what a business owner wants to hear. Costs need to be small and need to be minimized in order for a business to be efficient and market competitive. But wait a minute, you say, shared hosting is not good for me, I’m way past that. This is where linux Virtual Private Server hosting comes in.

Dedicated servers are powerful and reliable. With no one sitting on the same server, security is great, and with large hosting providers, hacking is difficult. However, dedicated servers are way too expensive for an average business owner running a successful business. A business needs cost efficient solutions that are as close to perfect as possible. Dedicated servers are the benchmark for hosting solution providers and Virtual Private Servers are as close to that mark as you can get (extremely close).

However, the cost is a fraction of a dedicated hosting solution. The reason for that is that a VPS hosting provider takes a single physical server, divides it into multiple accounts that are completely independent of each other and that each have their own root level access, resource allocation, and control. This allows for enhanced security, guaranteed resource use, and independent software and application management that are so sought after when people look to move up from shared hosting to dedicated hosting.

A dedicated server, on the other hand, requires three separate machines to run a single web-site: one for security, one for code storage, and one for database storage. This allows for outstanding power and growth potential. But, not every business is prepared to pay about $400 per month for something that they will not use completely. Virtual Private Servers allow a single machine to run multiple web-sites without sacrificing the benefits of dedicated hosting solutions at a fraction of a price, allowing business owners to invest more money into their projects and products.
