VPS

VPS stands for (Virtual Private Server) or a virtual server is a virtual machine provided by Internet hosting services.

A virtual dedicated server or VPS (VPS) has a separate operating system for itself, and customers have Superuser or Root access to that operating system, so they can install any software they want on that server; the various aspects of a virtual server can be practically considered equivalent to a dedicated and physical server, with the difference that these types of servers are much easier to create and set up. In other words, using technology such as Virtuozzo, Virtualizor, VMware, etc., using very powerful and advanced hardware, he divided a physical server into several VPS with the same facilities and resources.

The most important features of using VPS compared to other hosting services are the much lower cost of VPS compared to dedicated servers and the independence of performance and higher access compared to representative services (Reseller/Shared Hosting) such that the cost of VPS is most of the time. One-fifth to one-tenth of the cost of dedicated servers, but it has all its facilities.

1. Price: Virtual servers will provide the possibility of having a fully operational server at only a fraction of the price of our server.
2. Integration of solutions: with VPS, you can define an incremental backup copy on 5 Raid Arrays.
3. Management: The nature of the virtual server means the possibility of applying management on different software and installing patches and updates. Don’t worry about updating software packages because we can control them.
4. Operationality: The virtual server is fully operational and works independently.
5. Effective use of resources: With a virtual server capable of accessing the required resources, you can easily manage and allocate the necessary resources to your software.

In response to the question of what is a data center, we must first know that servers have very powerful hardware and network, their electricity consumption is very high, and they generate a lot of heat. So, with these conditions, they cannot be kept in a normal place like home. The place where the servers are kept should have an industrial power system along with a proper cooling system and internet network connection with very wide bandwidth.

The data center provides the necessary conditions to maintain the servers. Data centers are standard places that are highly resistant to natural disasters, have a very wide bandwidth internet network infrastructure, are equipped with a high-power industrial power system, and have several different power generation sources so that in the event of a problem, they will never experience a power outage. From the cooling and ventilation system, They use exclusive and advanced.

The mentioned topics were only for getting to know the data center, and you, as a user, do not get involved in these issues and have nothing to do with them. The only important issue for those who want to get a virtual server (VPS) is the geographical location and data center network.

Although the use of VPS does not have many disadvantages, the following disadvantages can be considered as the weaknesses of this type of server compared to other servers:

• Compared to shared servers and hosts, it is more expensive.
• Server configuration is usually difficult; Therefore, if you plan to manage the server yourself, you must know how to code in the server environment.
• Compared to a dedicated server, it has fewer resources.
