What's a Virtual Dedicated
Server? Virtual dedicated servers offer many of the
capabilities and features of dedicated servers, including admin
(root) access and dedicated IP addresses, but at a much lower price.
The customer shares server space with a small number of other
customers. But because each virtual dedicated server is effectively
isolated from other accounts on the server, the user has full
control over the server space.
What's a Dedicated Server? Unlike normal
hosting plans, which put many customers' accounts on a single
server, a dedicated server is reserved exclusively for the account
and usage of a single customer. The dedicated server customer has
exclusive rights to the server's bandwidth, memory and storage
space; performance will not be affected by traffic and usage
patterns of other customers.
Which Server Operating System is right for
you? Your Web server operating system is not necessarily
related to your own computer operating system. The difference is in
how your web site is developed. If you are unsure which type of
hosting server to choose, please contact our customer support
team.
