If you have a site that gets a lot of traffic or is expected to generate a lot of traffic soon, then you might want to consider getting a Linux VPS hosting package. A Linux VPS hosting service is also one of your best options if you want more control over the software that is installed on the server where your website is hosted.

A Linux VPS (or Virtual Private Server) is a Linux-based operating system running on a virtual private server. That virtual private server is hosted on a physical "host" server, running using part of the host server's resources. This allows the host server to run multiple virtual servers at the same time if its resources allow it to.

Managed Linux VPS Hosting is the key to running your site, service, or business with complete control. Whether you have a website, run software, or host files, a Linux VPS provides you with the ability to do all of that at the same time, with no limitations other than resources.

With our Linux VPSes being fully managed, you also receive the convenience of having a team of Linux experts ready to assist you with any request that you might have.

The typical features of our managed Linux VPS hosting include the following:

The Virtual Private Server (VPS) is an isolated virtual machine on a physical server. It is backed by its own RAM, storage, CPU, and operating system. Linux VPS hosting is mostly used by small and medium businesses expecting high-volume web traffic, a lot of growth, or data-heavy websites, since it ensures faster load times and near 100% uptime.

Linux VPSes provide a lot of flexibility and control - they are the middle ground between a closed-off shared host, and a full-on dedicated server. A Linux VPS balances the attributes of each, providing the modularity and expandability of a shared host, while also providing the control and freedom of a dedicated server.

Because of their virtual nature, it is easy to add or remove storage, RAM, CPUs, and so on. Their modularity also allows for several Linux VPSes to be easily added and removed from the host (physical) server, as well as moving them to other physical servers. This is unlike dedicated servers, which require physical maintenance in order to change the attributes and resources available on them.

Individuals and businesses that want more flexibility with their customization and development options should definitely go for Linux VPS hosting, especially those who are looking to get great performance and service without paying for a dedicated server, which could eat up a huge chunk of the site’s operating budget.

There are many benefits when using a Linux VPS hosting service, including ease of use, increased security, and improved reliability at a lower total cost of ownership. However, for most webmasters, programmers, designers, and developers, the true benefit of a Linux VPS is the flexibility. Each virtual private server is isolated with its own operating environment, which means that you can easily and safely install the operating system that you prefer or need—in this case, Linux—as well as remove or add software and applications easily whenever you want to.

You can also modify the environment of your VPS to suit your performance needs, as well as improve the experience of your site’s users or visitors. Flexibility can be the advantage you need to set you apart from your competitors.

Note that some Linux VPS providers won’t give you full root access to your Linux VPS, in which case you’ll have limited functionality. Be sure to get a Linux VPS where you’ll have full access to the VPS, so you can modify anything you want.

Even though you can't directly see it, hardware makes a huge difference in how your VPS performs in regular and peak workloads. Everything from the memory, CPU, and storage all change how your virtual server performs with website load speeds.

That's why we use the newest high-end PowerEdge line of servers from Dell. We equip them with Intel® Xeon® Gold processors or better to give you high performance and great multithreading capabilities. We also use the fastest DDR4 memory that these CPUs can handle to give you great memory speeds as well.

The real star of the show is our use of PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage. PCIe technology means that your storage is directly connected to your CPU, giving you amazing throughput. This gives your server some of the best performance that other hosting providers can only dream of giving you. What does PCIe 4.0 mean? This generation of PCI Express means that in a nutshell, you can expect transfer speeds of up to 6 GigaBYTES per second! This will let you read and write thousands of transactions almost instantly.

Last but not least, a high-quality network setup lets your server connect to the Internet and serve your business with great speed and reliability. We utilize multiple upstream providers to give our users excellent redundancy and network capacity.

These factors combined make for what we believe is the best Linux server hardware available at this price point.
