Shared Hosting vs VPS Hosting

To see its own web site on internet, most people will recommand you to buy a domain name. But it is not enough. It is true that a domain name is important but it is not the only thing we need for hosting our site. You need a server with specific configurations (According to the resources you need) for hosting your data and for managing them.

Most provider will offer you two different hosting solutions:

-Web Hosting

-VPS Hosting

The Web hosting is the cheapest solutions for people who wants to host their web sites. The supplier will provide you with a disk space, an IP address and a domain name. It is enough if your web site don't contain too much applications and if you don't have Databases which require huge calculation ressources. But this kind of hosting is unefficient if you have to host big dynamic websites. Here is the value of an VPS Hosting.

The VPS Hosting is like a dedicated server, but it is smaller and cheaper. The provider will propose you a dedicated calculation capacity CPU, a dedicated memory RAM and a dedicated Disk Space. It is perfect if you want to have the proprieties of a small dedicated server without paying the price of such an infrastructure. The VPS is used for hosting dynamic websites, game applications and it can support and manage huge databases.
