VPS (Virtual Private Server, virtual dedicated server) — an innovative type of hosting, with the help of which the user has at his disposal all the power of a dedicated server. At the same time, this technology is flexible and easy to manage.
From a functionality point of view, the closest analogue of a VPS is a standard dedicated server, which is based on the hosting provider’s technology site and connects to an Ethernet switch port.
What is renting a virtual server on Debian 9?
A user who chooses one of the VPS tariffs receives a dedicated server with a separate physical machine. At the same time, access to the system will be at the administrator level, which allows you to install any software and change server settings.
At the same time, any tariff plan has all the necessary system resources (allocated RAM and processor power). That is, the user will in any case receive a sufficient amount of resources for work. And they will always be available. The virtual server operates without failures or breakdowns, which eliminates the possibility of costs associated with downtime.
How is VPS configured?
First of all, the server will be connected and checked for functionality. After this, the user will be able to transfer his data using a protocol convenient for him. If you require DNS support for hosted domains, we recommend purchasing DNS Customer Support.
To independently work with DNS domains hosted on the server, you will need to configure a name resolution server. Each client receives an address space of one The IP address that he will need to connect VPS.
The address space can be expanded by submitting a special request indicating the reasons that led to the emergence of such a need. This can be done through your Personal Account. In this situation, it is necessary to take into account that the VPS will have to be stopped and work with it will be considered normal, without canceling the service. Funds will be debited as before.
To cancel the VPS service, you need to submit a request to technical support. You should also contact them if you have any questions regarding the operation of the virtual server.
Benefits of using VPS
Tariff plans offered to clients require access to the server at the administrator level. This means that the user has full rights to administer the server.
Only direct access to physical machines and the ability to act at the operating system kernel level are excluded. On VPS tariff plans, the user has access to server at the administrator level and thereby receives full rights to administer the server, except for direct access to the equipment.
Advantages of using VPS:
-
The ability to install any programs and configure almost all system and application parameters.
-
The user can install his own versions of system libraries or change existing ones.
-
The ability to fully control processes, participants and system files.
The user can host as many sites, databases, domain zones as he wants, making them available to an unlimited number of system participants (in this case, only system resources are limited, depending on the chosen tariff).
What is installed on the server by default?
The client purchases a VPS server with an operating system already installed on it, which he chooses. No more than two free IP addresses are provided for one server. If the user wishes to expand the amount of address space, an additional fee will be required.
By ordering a virtual dedicated server from geo.hosting, you receive powerful software with high-speed Internet.
