What is VPS Hosting and How Does a VPS Work?

VPS (Virtual Private Server) hosting is a virtualized server environment that provides dedicated resources within a shared physical server. Unlike shared hosting, VPS gives you guaranteed CPU, RAM, and storage allocation, ensuring consistent performance for your applications.

VPS hosting works by using hypervisor technology to partition a physical server into multiple isolated virtual environments. Each VPS operates independently with its own operating system, root access, and dedicated resources. This means your applications won't be affected by other users' traffic or resource usage.

Hostman's Cloud VPS is ideal for developers and growing businesses who need reliable and scalable hosting with full control. Whether you're running web applications, databases, or microservices, VPS hosting provides the perfect balance of performance, flexibility, and cost-efficiency without the complexity of managing physical hardware.
