What is a VServer? Easily explained
You can often rent a VServer for your homepage on the Internet. We explain to you exactly what this is in this practical tip.
Explanation: This is behind the VServer
- If you rent a VServer on the Internet, it does not mean that you will get your own server. A VServer is a virtual server that is simulated on a large server.
- You therefore share the server's performance with many other users who have also rented a VServer.
- The services of the VServer, such as the size, are fixed by the host. Network connection is also mandatory. However, you can be sure that your VServer is equipped with one of the fastest network connections.
- However, you have to install the VServer yourself. It is best to make a backup regularly. Then you are on the safe side in the event of a failure.
- If the performance of the entire server is busy in the meantime, the hoster has the option of moving your VServer to a larger server. This ensures that the maximum performance is maintained.
