About VPS

Virtual private servers (VPS) are isolated cloud instances with their own dedicated CPU, RAM and storage. They strike an excellent balance between cost, performance and flexibility - perfect for hosting websites, applications, development environments or any service that needs root access without paying for a full physical dedicated server.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a VPS and a dedicated server?

A VPS shares a physical server's hardware with other VPSs through virtualisation, while a dedicated server is entirely yours. A VPS costs less but offers more limited raw performance.

Which hypervisor should I pick: KVM, OpenVZ or Xen?

KVM is the modern reference with full hardware isolation and near-native performance. OpenVZ is lighter but limited to Linux. Xen still powers some legacy platforms.

Should I go for SSD or NVMe storage?

NVMe delivers 3-5x more IOPS than classic SATA SSDs - critical for databases and I/O-heavy workloads. SSDs remain enough for most standard websites and applications.
