subject: Virtual Private Servers Affordable, Powerful, Tailored To Your Needs [print this page] In the past decade virtualisation has become a buzzword in the technology world. Virtualisation means emulating a physical computer in software. The technology has even entered the home market, to the extent that consumers can now create virtual machines within their home computers. It is possible for instance to power up a Linux machine within a Windows PC.
In the web hosting industry virtualisation has also caught on and provided a means to give customers dedicated servers, but at a considerably more affordable rate since the expense of hardware is eliminated: these servers are called VPSs, which stands for Virtual Private Servers.
One of the keywords in that phrase is Private. It helps underline what makes these products so incredibly attractive, especially to business customers. With a VPS at its disposal, a company is immediately free from the burden of having to share space, and precious computer resources, with other websites to which it is completely unrelated. This means that a companys IT department is free to have the server configured exactly to their requirements, and can install custom packages on it without fear of disrupting the activities of others.
All of this is available at far cheaper prices than going the whole hog with a dedicated physical server. Yet, with VPS web hosting by EUKHost, we can guarantee terrific performance and reliability from our VPS servers, despite the virtual nature of the machines.
