A Virtual Private Server (VPS), also known as Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS), provides a certain amount of dedicated resources – RAM, CPU and storage – allocated for your use. It is important to note that there is still sharing going on within each server and these resources can be affected if other users on the same machine try to run memory-intensive applications or processes that eat up more than their fair share. VPS Hosting facts: - You still have full root access to the machine, meaning that you are in control of all the resources on your VPS - It can be managed easily by different users on the same machine - However, since it is still shared hosting, you might experience performance issues if other users are using too many resources
