About vps hosting
What is VPS hosting?
A VPS (virtual private server) is a slice of a physical server that is reserved for you. You get dedicated CPU, memory and storage and usually full root access, so you can install your own software and tune the server.
What is the difference between VPS, shared and dedicated hosting?
Shared hosting splits one server between many sites at the lowest cost. A VPS gives you guaranteed resources and more control for a moderate price. A dedicated server gives you an entire physical machine, which costs the most.
What is the difference between managed and unmanaged VPS?
With an unmanaged VPS you handle all server setup, updates and security yourself. With a managed VPS the provider helps with those tasks. Unmanaged plans cost less but need technical knowledge.
Which operating systems and control panels can I use on a VPS?
Most providers offer Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux, and some offer Windows. You can run cPanel, DirectAdmin or Plesk (usually with a licence fee), or free panels such as CyberPanel and HestiaCP.
How much RAM and CPU do I need?
A small site or test server runs fine on 1 to 2 GB of RAM. A busy WordPress site or a small web application is more comfortable with 4 GB or more. Start small and upgrade when your monitoring shows you need more.
Is NVMe storage better than SSD?
NVMe drives are generally faster than standard SSDs, which helps databases and busy sites. For many small sites the difference is not noticeable, so check the full plan rather than only the drive type.
