A VPS might be considered as a server that operates inside another server. It shares the features of a shared server and a dedicated server. It has the look, feel and functions of dedicated server, but it uses the same hardware. It can be compared to that of a luxury condo where numerous tenants live in separate apartments, each of which has its own locks, controls, bathrooms, kitchens and entry within the same vast space of the condo taken as a whole. Several companies like Pnadela.com are offering this service along with an open source project called FreeVSD.
Each private server offered by Pandela comes with its own file system, CPU, bandwidth, process space, disk space, user space and memory allocations. Although limits exist in memory, CPU and process for each individual private server, but that does not mean other private servers are going to face the consequences of heavy traffic or CPU load in some particular private servers. Even the applications and services in other private servers are not shared by a VPS. Private servers, which are invisible to each other, are not based on a process-sharing concept.
It needs to be noted that errors or faults in one private server would have no effect on other private servers, which have their own unique file system. Unique sets of IP addresses and network stack exist for each private server. An added feature is that the users would be allowed root access to individual private servers. This means that one can run his own applications and ensure full management of his private server in the same way he would did in case of a dedicated server.
Private servers do not involve sharing of disk space, TCP/IP stacks or processes. This means that these servers offer enhanced security. People normally opt for dedicated servers for three main reasons. The first reason is that people want to exercise control by installing and running their own applications. Secondly, they require minimum downtime caused by faulty scripts, mistakes and hacking attacks in other servers. Thirdly, when the websites are growing in size and the webmasters need more resources, then they would opt for dedicated servers. But it has been found that most of these websites are not able to achieve an optimum utilization of this dedicated machine.
Websites have been found to have utilized only 5 percent or less of the capacity provided by dedicated servers. In such cases, A VPS might be considered as a cost-effective alternative. In this case, one can consider the option of VPS, which guarantees all the benefits of a dedicated server, but at a fraction of cost! Once one signs up for a private server, he can choose to expand the set of QOS/SLA values as his website grows. This only requires a simple reboot of the private server.
