Virtual hosting


Virtual hosting is one of the popular solutions that allows you to host websites on the Internet. Availability and ease of use have made this type of hosting one of the most popular. At the same time, it is important to understand in what cases virtual (cloud) hosting will be useful and optimal.

Features of virtual hosting

Hosting in general involves renting server computing resources to serve a website/application, which includes RAM, hard drive space, processor power, etc. This service allows you to save on the purchase, installation and maintenance of complex server equipment.

Cloud hosting is one of the types of such services. This option is considered relatively universal and is suitable for most sites, both with low and high levels of traffic.

The principle of operation of such hosting is that clients rent space, communication channel and server power. At the same time, several workspaces with sites/applications of different owners are located on the same server. Thus, payment for services is divided between all clients and the provider himself. This greatly reduces costs for everyone. Rented space and capacity are distributed among all users on an equal basis. It is important to understand that the operation of your site largely depends on others. If some users require more power at a particular moment, the speed of your resource may slow down. In addition, various DDoS attacks and IP blocking affect all users of the server. If you need to install your own software, you must obtain permission from the hosting provider.

Shared hosting is best suited for you if:

  • your website/application consumes a small amount of resources;
  • you are not planning global scaling of the resource in the near future;
  • the resource is built on the basis of popular CMS or does not have special requirements for server settings;
  • The site is visited on average by up to 1 thousand users daily.

Thus, you can safely use this type of hosting if you have a web project at the initial stage.

Benefits of virtual hosting

The key advantages of this hosting option are:

  • affordable price (this is the lowest cost option for renting server capacity);
  • ease of management (virtual hosting offers a convenient and intuitive interface for resource management - adding domains, setting up mail, administration and much more is possible even without special skills);
  • quick launch (you can launch a resource in a couple of minutes by uploading files to the server and connecting databases);
  • availability of technical support (reliable providers always provide ongoing user support, and also regularly check the system for interruptions and other possible problems to quickly resolve them);
  • ensuring protection (providers independently take the necessary measures to protect against spam, virus attacks and other security problems);
  • ease of scaling (you can buy additional space or change the tariff in a few minutes by contacting your provider).

Thanks to the operating features of virtual hosting, they ensure comfortable operation of the resource even if it is not possible to hire your own system administrator.
