A VPS is an emulation of a computer, also known as a virtual private server, that lives within a parent server and shares resources with other virtual servers. This parent server splits up portions of itself for other virtual servers through software called a hypervisor.

A Cloud VPS instances can store multiple sites, email, DNS, databases, users, but most importantly these aspects can be managed through an easy to use control panel. Since a Cloud VPS is a simulation of a physical server, it also provides SSH/SFTP and Root access, allowing for libraries, modules and other services to be configured.

You'll have control to resize your server to accommodate for sudden spikes in traffic or scale down for post-seasonal businesses. By resizing you’ll be able to upgrade or downgrade your VPS instance allowing you to pay for only what you use.

Cloud VPS servers not only provide peace of mind for small to medium businesses but they also offer a robust combination of benefits:

• Quick Scale-Ups for Changes in Traffic
• Pay for What You Use
• Host Unlimited Sites
• Cost-effective
• Contract Free Hosting
• Various Linux OS Choices
• SSH and Root Access
• Highly Secure

You don’t have to hire an expert to find a Cloud VPS server that is right for you. Your current hosting provider can provide details about your OS, CPU, RAM and disk usage to help you make an informed decision.
