VPS Hosting: Worldwide Secure & Scalable Servers

VPS stands for a virtual private server. This is an isolated virtual environment on a physical server with a certain allocated capacity of CPU, RAM and drive space. Physical servers can have several individually running VPS. This allows you to get all the benefits of a dedicated hosting - root access, your own IP addresses, installation of any operating system and software, etc. - at a lower price.

Virtualization technology allows multiple VPS servers to be placed on a single physical server. You are not limited by a virtual private server in settings and administration - you have full root access and remain independent from other projects on that physical server.

The cost of renting a virtual private server is significantly lower than renting a dedicated hosting, because you use only the part of the physical server with the required amount of resources. You also get flexibility in operation - you can change the configuration of the server. For example, you can change the drive size, RAM or processor capacity at any time.

Virtualization technology is a powerful computing concept that allows you to create multiple virtual environments, or "virtual machines", on a single physical computer. So we can divide a dedicated physical server into multiple VPS servers. Each virtual machine can run its own operating system and applications independently, providing a secure and isolated environment for different tasks or workloads.

Virtualization technology provides strong isolation between virtual machines. This isolation ensures that applications running in one VM cannot interfere with or access the resources of another VM, improving security and reliability.

VPS hosting is ideal for websites and applications that require more resources than shared hosting can provide. This includes high-traffic websites, e-commerce stores, online gaming platforms, or applications that require significant processing power and memory.

It is also suitable for small and growing businesses. If your project experiences increased traffic or requires more resources, you can scale up your VPS plan to accommodate the growth.

VPS is also often used for development and testing purposes. Developers can create isolated environments to test new software, applications, or website changes without affecting the live production environment.

We provide customers with both managed and unmanaged VPS hosting on some plans.

Managed VPS hosting is a type of service where we, as the hosting provider, take care of the technical management and maintenance of the VPS server on your behalf. This means that we are responsible for tasks such as server setup, configuration, operating system updates, security patches, etc.

On the other hand, unmanaged VPS gives you full control and responsibility over the management and maintenance of your VPS server. This level of control gives you the flexibility to customize and optimize your server according to your specific needs.

You can check our documentation to find out more about additional services.

You can install any operating system on your VPS server, so we offer various options to install. Some specialists prefer Windows VPS for its high compatibility with various Windows-based applications.

Linux is an open source operating system, which means it is freely available and customizable. This allows a wide range of software and applications to be installed and configured on a Linux VPS, giving you greater flexibility to choose the tools and technologies that best suit your needs.

A dedicated server can be represented as a physical machine, and multiple VPS can be represented as part of that physical machine. To divide the physical machine into VPS servers, we use virtualization technology.

Dedicated servers are most often used for projects with relatively high resource requirements. The main differences between these two options are the physical representation and the price. Dedicated hosting may be more expensive than you expect, in which case buying fully managed VPS is an acceptable alternative.

Of course, you can! You can rent a dedicated server from is*hosting and transfer your project from a managed VPS to it. All data will be transferred quickly, free of charge and, most importantly, without interrupting the work of your website or project. All you have to do is send a request to our technical support and wait a little while for our specialists to perform the transfer and notify you.

You can get access to VPS hosting usually within a few minutes (up to several hours, depending on the time of day) after paying for the order. Information about access to the purchased server will be sent to the e-mail address you provided when registering on the site. If you have problems accessing a virtual private server you have already purchased, you can contact is*hosting technical support. We'll find out what the problem is.

To test the VPS hosting, you can use the trial period before fully renting a virtual server. The trial version supports all features and does not differ in any way from the paid version. To get a trial period for a virtual private server, you need to make a special application (we wrote about this in more detail here). If the selected VPS doesn't suit you, you won't be charged for the trial period. If you decide to continue working and purchase a virtual private server, the trial period will be included in the first payment period.
