Introduction • Is a VPS same as a Dedicated Server? If not, then how is a VPS different from a Dedicated Server? This presentation is meant for providing information on web servers, especially on VPS and Dedicated Servers. This will help you understand the type of a server that you are getting in your hosting plan.
Web Hosting • The service of web hosting is an important component that is needed for keeping sites seamlessly accessible over the Internet. This service is provided by web hosting companies through various web hosting plans for different types of web hosting services. The main types of web hosting solutions are Shared Hosting, Reseller Hosting, WordPress Hosting, Managed VPS Hosting, Self-managed VPS Hosting and Dedicated Hosting. • Web hosting is the service through which websites are rendered accessible online to site visitors. It is availed as a web hosting plan from a web hosting company. This web hosting plan includes web server space and various web hosting features. All the services and technologies that are needed for keeping sites accessible are offered through web hosting.
Web Servers • A web server is an integral part of any web hosting service. It stores and processes the files of the websites that have availed the service of web hosting. Space on a web server can be availed through a web hosting plan. A web server not only stores and processes the files of websites but also receives the requests of browsers for the stored files of the hosted websites and responds to those incoming requests. It is from a web server that the files of the hosted sites are retrieved by browsers and subsequently the hosted sites become accessible to site visitors.
Different Types of Web Servers Web servers can be classified into three types of servers based on the number of sites that are hosted on each web server. These three types of web servers are as follows - • Shared Web Server - A Shared Web Server hosts multiple websites on a single web server. • Dedicated Web Server – A Dedicated Web Server hosts a single website on a single web server. • Virtual Private Server (VPS)– A VPS hosts multiple websites on a single web server but offers the environment of a Dedicated Server to each of the hosted sites. The type of web server that a user’s site will be hosted on, will depend on the availed web hosting plan. A Shared Hosting plan will offer web server space on a Shared Web Server, whereas a VPS Hosting plan will offer web server space on a Virtual Private Server (VPS).
Types of Web Servers Based on the OS • The names of the plans for availing web server space can vary, based on the type of Operating System (OS) that is involved. The two types of OS offered by most of the professional web hosting companies in different types of hosting plans are Windows and Linux. • Hence, the web server plans, based on OS,that can be availed for Dedicated Servers and Virtual Private Servers are Windows Dedicated Server plans, Linux Dedicated Server plans, Windows VPS plans and Linux VPS plans. • A Windows Dedicated Server plan or a Windows VPS plan will offer the Windows OS, whereas a Linux Dedicated Server plan or a Linux VPS plan will offer the Linux OS.

Windows Dedicated Servers • Windows Dedicated Servers that can be availed through Windows Dedicated Serverplans of different hosting companies are plans for Dedicated Servers that use the Windows OS. Any Dedicated Server plan will offer dedicated server space, dedicated server resources, a dedicated IP address, server customization, enhanced site speed, augmented site security and peak site performance. • A Dedicated Server is a web server that hosts a single website on a single web server. Thus, it stores and processes the files of a single website/client and is able to offer its entire resources for full utilization by the hosted site.
Windows VPS • Windows Virtual Private Servers (VPS) are VPS that use the Windows OS and can be availed through either Windows Managed VPS plans or through Windows Self-managed VPS plans. Virtual Private Servers host multiple websites on eachphysical web server (VPS) and are able to offer dedicated server space, a dedicated IP address, server customization and dedicated server resources to each of the hosted sites through Virtualization Technology. In this way, a VPS offers a less expensive alternative to a Dedicated Server. • Windows VPS plans that use the Windows OS can be availed as Windows Managed VPS or as Windows Self-managed VPS plans. A Managed VPS is managed by the service provider, whereas a Self-managed VPS is managed by the user, without the involvement of the service provider.
The Differences A Windows Dedicated Server is different from a Windows Virtual Private Server in the following ways – • A Dedicated Server hosts (stores and processes) the files of a single website on a single web server, whereas a Virtual Private Server hosts (stores and processes) the files of multiple websites on a single web server. • Dedicated Servers do not use Virtualization Technology. On the other hand, a VPS uses Virtualization Technology and offers server space that has been created virtually. • Dedicated Servers do not have different types based on how these web servers are managed, whereas a VPS can either be managed by the service provider (Managed VPS) or can be managed by the user (Self-managed VPS). • Plans for Virtual Private Servers are almost always less expensive than plans for Dedicated Servers.
