What is Virtual Private Server?

VPS, also referred to as Virtual Dedicated Server or VDS) is a method of partitioning a physical server computer into multiple servers that each has the appearance and capabilities of running on its own dedicated machine. Each virtual server can run its own full-fledged operating system, and each server can be independently rebooted.

It is a cheaper alternative to traditional Dedicated Server and is also a more secured and reliable substitute to traditional Shared Hosting Plans. Unlike traditional web hosting, VPS servers come with full root access or remote desktop - a luxury traditionally reserved only for dedicated web hosting.
