VPS Hosting or Virtual Private Hosting is the bridge over the yawning gap between shared hosting and
dedicated hosting. It costs slightly more than shared hosting but offers almost all the features of dedicated hosting, including full control of the server. This makes it an extremely popular hosting choice for growing websites. However, for non-tech savvy website owners, this option is sometimes unviable since they do require tech know-how to be able to manage it. That is when
managed VPS hosting service comes into play. In this alternative, the hosting provider takes care of all the technical tasks that are related to the server. They take care of the management chores such as configuration, system upgrades, etc., leaving the client free to concentrate on the core business aims. The client gets administrative control via a
control panel (cpanel) so that they are able to work on the server.
However, it is the provider’s duty to make sure that the server remains accessible at all times, has the latest, most up-to-date software, and is a safe and secure environment for the client’s data. They also provide the required hardware resources needed to run the
VPS hosting infrastructure for the client.
