What does a VPS stand for?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 2:43 pm

Virtual Private Servers are a type of server that is used to provide a dedicated environment for a company or individual. A VPS is a computer that is leased by the company or individual.

PRO TIP: A VPS stands for ‘virtual private server.’ A VPS is a type of web hosting that allows businesses and individuals to host their websites on a server that is not shared with other users. A VPS is more expensive than shared web hosting, but it provides more resources and flexibility.

This type of server is different from a shared server because the company or individual has total control over the operating system, applications, and data on the VPS. This allows the company or individual to have their own environment without having to share resources with other users.
