Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS)?
- Virtual Dedicated Servers are very similar to traditional physical dedicated servers, but differ in that they operate on enterprise grade hardware that is shared with several other VDS servers. The hardware we use to implement our virtual servers is many times more powerful and reliable than a typical dedicated server, which enables us to offer our VDS accounts with more power, reliability and scalability than any entry to mid level dedicated server on the market, all at a fraction of the price. It is exciting technology, and we are excited to lead the way. You can learn more here.
- What can I do on a Virtual Dedicated Server?
- The easy answer is, probably anything you could do on a traditional server. Since you can tailor your RAM, diskspace, and even your linux flavor exactly how you need it, there should be only advantages in using a virtual server in place of an entry level dedicate server for your next project. Your content is isolated just like a dedicated server, and you have full access to tailor the environment to your needs. A popular package is one of our True-Virtual servers combined with cPanel to give the client a powerful, feature rich server right out of the box at a superb price.
