VPS vs Virtual Dedicated Servers
The differences between VPS and Virtual Dedicated Servers are specifically related to resource quantity and availability. While our VPS plans also meet most basic requirements for applications requiring more processing power and/or disk space by default we offer Virtual Dedicated.
Virtual Dedicated Server default resources vs VPS default resources
- Increased CPU frequency limit is (Approx 4Ghz higher)
- Increased Default CPU cores
- Increased Default RAM
- Increased Default Disk Space
Note, while physically dedicated servers are required in some special cases such as highly utilized database servers or other special applications in most cases a Virtual Server (VPS or Virtual Dedicated) will meet the requirements.
