A virtual private server (VPS), also called a virtual dedicated server (VDS), is a virtual server that appears to the user as a dedicated server but is actually installed on a Dedicated SERVER (COMPUTER) serving multiple Web sites, database and other services. A single computer can have several VPSs, each one with its own operating system (OS) that runs the hosting software for a particular user.

The hosting software for each VPS can include a Web server program, a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) program, a mail server program and specialized applications for activities such as e-commerce and blogging.

The VPS alternative is often chosen by small businesses that need a customized Web site but cannot afford a dedicated server. Another useful aspect of VPS technology is the ability of a single subscriber to maintain multiple virtual servers. For example a Web site owner might use one server for the production-level Web site and the other for a "dummy site" that can be used to test planned updates, modifications or new programs.

Our Virtual Private Servers give developers, designers and businesses more power, speed and stability to successfully run their websites and applications. If you’re a business experiencing high traffic to your site, a developer running a complex application that requires instant scalability, or a designer wanting to give your clients’ sites maximum performance, then VPS hosting is just what you need!

To create a Virtual Private Server, hosting companies often use the following two methods to partition the machines:

• Hypervisor – Also known as a virtual machine manager, or VMM, the hypervisor manages, or supervises, the resources of the virtual servers to allow multiple OS installations to run on the same physical machine. Popular hypervisor virtualization solutions include VMware ESX, Microsoft Hyper-V, Xen, and KVM.
• Container – This mode is also known as operating system-level virtualization or a kernel-based system. In this method, separate containers, or user spaces, are created for each VPS. Popular container virtualization solutions include Parallels Virtuozzo and OpenVZ.

In some cases, a Virtual Private Server is called a VDS, or virtual dedicated server. However, the terms refer to the same concept where one physical machine is configured to function like multiple servers dedicated to meet each customer’s individual needs with the same level of privacy and configuration options as a true independent server.

We take a single, physical server and slice it up into several virtual machines; each of which contain a reserved and protected amount of RAM and access to the CPU. Here are some additional technologies that are supported with our VPS hosting services:

• PHP 5 Full Unix Shell
• Unlimited MySQL Databases
• One-Click Application Installer
• Crontab Access
• Unlimited FTP/sFTP Users
• Node.js
• Nginx
• Perl
• Subversion Repository (SVN)
• SSL Secure Server
• Password Protection (.htaccess)
• Access to Raw Log Files
• Unlimited Email Accounts
• Python
• Apache 2.2
• Secure Shell (SSH)

Resources that can be expanded or contracted on demand include:

• RAM/Memory
• CPU
• Disk Space/Hard Disk
• Bandwidth
• IP Addresses

DATA CENTERS:         

Resources: CPU Usage
CPU - This will display the percent of CPU being used currently.
Load Average - The system load is a measure of the amount of computational work that a computer system performs. The load average represents the average system load over a period of time. It conventionally appears in the form of three numbers which represent the system load during the last one, five, and fifteen minute periods.

Memory Usage
This will display your current percentage of used memory. This will also display your total and currently available memory.

Disk Usage
Disk Space: This displays your current percentage of used disk space as well as your free and total disk space.
Disk Inodes: This displays your current percentage of used Inodes as well as your available and total inodes.

Network Usage
This will give you the percentage of your total bandwidth currently used.
