A virtual server is a portion of a physical server running in a software layer. A hypervisor (virtualization layer) is installed on a single physical server, providing a layer of abstraction that partitions it into multiple virtual server instances. Each Virtual server runs independently of others but shares the underlying hardware resources such as storage, bandwidth, RAM, GPU, and CPU cores with other servers. A virtual server also refers to instances like VPS or VDS, where virtualization abstracts physical resources.
A VPS (Virtual Private Server) is a virtual server offered to customers through a cloud hosting provider. VPS servers offer a private computing environment, providing better performance and computing power than shared hosting. Each VPS runs independently but shares physical server resources like CPU, RAM, and storage with other VPS instances. As an autonomous unit, a VPS offers flexible customization options, enhanced performance, and scalability to meet growing business demands.
A VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server) is a virtualized dedicated server. The difference between a VDS and a VPS lies in resource allocation. In VDS hosting, a virtual server gets a dedicated slice of the physical server’s resources. This portion is not shared with other servers. In VPS hosting, the underlying server’s resources are shared across all Virtual servers running on top of it. There’s no exclusive resource allocation. A VDS is ideal for tenants requiring the benefits of a dedicated server at a more affordable price.
A virtual server is typically hosted on top of a physical server. The hosting provider installs a special software called a hypervisor (such as KVM) on a physical server. The hypervisor provides an isolation layer that allows multiple virtual servers to run independently on the same physical server by abstracting the underlying hardware resources. VMs operate independently while sharing the server’s resources, such as CPU cores, RAM, and storage.
In VPS hosting, physical hardware resources, such as storage, RAM, and CPU cores, are shared with other VPS instances. In VDS hosting, a portion of hardware resources is made exclusive to each virtual instance, replicating the functionality of a dedicated server. This dedicated portion of resources is not shared with other servers.
VDS servers are ideal for high-traffic websites and resource-intensive workloads owing to their superior and consistent performance. Additionally, they are recommended for businesses requiring maximum control and privacy for their applications and data.
VPS servers are recommended for applications with moderate traffic and workload demands. They are ideal for startups and small to medium-sized businesses.
Virtual servers provide an ideal environment for testing different applications. Developers and operation teams can run applications on a VPS to test their functionality. They can also test different software versions and see how they stack against each other. Virtual servers are essential in testing applications before they go live, eliminating the high costs of renting a dedicated server for application testing.
A common use case of virtual servers is in the cloud computing industry. Virtual servers provide a convenient and secure environment for running websites and applications. They are easy to set up, with flexible customization options and payment plans for all business models. Users can seamlessly scale up resources to meet growing business demands with a few mouse clicks and minimal downtime.
Virtual servers are ideal for hosting websites and applications due to their flexibility and customization options. You can tweak your server's resources to suit your workload requirements and scale up resources to match growing business demands. In addition, virtual servers are budget-friendly, making them ideal for small to medium businesses that lack the financial capacity to rent a dedicated server.
Virtual servers are also a popular choice for training and learning. They provide a virtual learning environment, allowing students to deploy and test applications without affecting live systems. In addition, they can easily be reset after use for the next training phase. Training use cases include virtual labs for DevOps, cloud, and cybersecurity training.

We use open-source Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) virtualization technology to make our Virtual Servers, as our performance benchmarks indicate that it is one of the most performant hypervisor technologies available today.
Our data centers are located in the United States, the Netherlands, Singapore, Germany, Sweden and Lithuania. We use redundant infrastructure, electricity and networking architecture to ensure top-tier cloud infrastructure services.
An additional IP address for your VPS allows you to host multiple websites, isolate applications, and enhance security. This extra IP, separate from the primary IP, enables you to run various services independently within a single VPS. You can choose from Floating IPs for easy reassignment or DDoS-Protected Floating IPs for added security.
