The price of a
VPS hosting in India varies from one provider to another. The price of a server will include its infrastructure, operating system, administration and software applications that are needed to run the server tasks. VPS hosting price is considerable cheaper than the dedicated server mainly because VPS has many customers sharing the server, unlike the
dedicated hosting where there is only one user.
The price of
Windows VPS hosting will cost more than the
Linux VPS hosting. This is because Linux is free and open source while Windows is a commercially sold product owned by Microsoft. All Microsoft products require the users to pay a license fee.
VPS hosting gives root access and control to the users. They can install any software application they find necessary for their business. However, they must manage and administer the applications on their own. This is called unmanaged VPS hosting where the host takes responsibility for server uptime and updates to software that comes pre-installed. Users can choose the more expensive
managed VPS hosting in case they are not technically sound or lack the time to maintain the infrastructure. The host takes complete responsibility for managing and maintaining the server enabling users to focus on their core business. Unmanaged Linux VPS hosting comes as the most affordable VPS option.
