Virtual Private Servers Description

To satisfy the need for reasonably priced, but reliable hosting solutions, suppliers started a midway website hosting environment - the virtual private servers. This is a virtual emulation of a server that functions precisely like a : dedicated server and is much more feature-rich than any shared website hosting package. At the same time, as a lot of accounts are hosted on the very same physical server and each individual pays for their account, the price for a virtual private servers plan is much lower than the cost of a dedicated server. A low-end virtual private servers package is slightly more high-priced than a hi-end shared web hosting account, but its system resources exceed by far those of the shared web hosting account.

Virtual Private Servers Virtualization Systems: OpenVZ and KVM

Each individual account is isolated from the remaining accounts on the web hosting server, so each Virtual Private Server can run a different OS and be rebooted independently from the other ones. The Virtual Servers are administered through a virtualization panel where users can see all running tasks and abort or restart them, update server-side software applications, take a glimpse at the consumed and the remaining resources, and much more. OpenVZ, KVM, Virtual PC and VMware are only several examples of virtualization systems used for creating and managing Virtual Private Server plans. They involve various requirements in regard to the CPU architecture, the Operating Systems they support, etc. For example, KVM can function on machines with x86 or AMD64 processors, can be activated on a server running both Windows and Linux Operating Systems, and permits both of these OSs to be activated on the concrete VPS hosting servers.

Managed Virtual Private Servers Services

The virtualization system offers the customer the power to administer the virtual private servers independently from the provider, saving you the time you'd have waited for their technical support team to restart a service or recover a backup. If the user is not skilled enough, however, we offer an optional upgrade that contains Operating System and software installation and update operations, virtual private servers backups, as well as dedicated admin support and troubleshooting procedures. We also have a handful of VPS web hosting server server farm locations to select from: the United States, England and Australia.

Web Hosting Control Panels for Virtual Private Servers

The domain names and the content on the virtual web hosting server are dealt with through a hosting CP user interface, similar to a typical shared web hosting plan's. The difference is that with website hosting accounts, users get one particular CP, while with a virtual private servers package, web hosting providers commonly present a handful of web hosting CPs to choose from, and the more proficient users can install and use the website hosting Control Panel they like. Certain virtualization platforms support installing a website hosting CP through them to render it simpler for the user. Unluckily, the majority of the website hosting CPs are not free of cost. Some of these ask for a monthly tax (cPanel requires thirteen dollars/month, have a glance at BuycPanel.com), while others demand a license fee (DirectAdmin). There are other website hosting Control Panels that restrict the number of the hosted domain names (Plesk). While we speak of website hosting CP-equipped virtual private servers, it's good to mention that, by default, all virtual private servers plans furnished by us are fitted out with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. It includes unmetered hosted domain allowance. Hepsia comes at no additional licence cost, thus the monthly cost of the private virtual web server account selected by the customer does not fluctuate. Last, but not least, Hepsia perhaps includes the finest Domain Manager on the website hosting CP market.

CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu Driven Virtual Private Servers Accounts

The website hosting CP tool permits users to administer domain name, files, databases, File Transfer Protocol and email box accounts, to see traffic and load logs and to take a look at exhaustive statistics about the used up and the remaining resources. Similar to the virtualization panels, the Control Panels are developed to function under a given OS. For example, cPanel, which is one of the best known website hosting CPs, operates exclusively under Linux CentOS, whereas Enkompass, which is developed by the very same company, functions solely under Windows. Other hosting Control Panels like Plesk and Hepsia support several platforms. Hepsia is compatible with the CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu Linux distributions. The advantage of given website hosting Control Panels over others is that they include several control levels - administrator, reseller and customer. Each level has access to a separate set of specifications controlling the levels beneath, so it is easy to build a reseller web hosting website and begin making money by reselling web hosting accounts to other people. As clients will view what percentage of the system resources is consumed, but will not be able to see the actual numbers, even a low-end VPS server account will suffice to establish a small-size shared hosting website hosting corporation and gain cash.
