What is a VPS server?

A VPS server, or Virtual Private Server, is a virtualized hosting environment that mimics a dedicated server within a shared physical server. It provides users with their own operating system, dedicated resources, and full control, making it a popular choice for businesses and developers who need more flexibility and performance than shared hosting. VPS servers are scalable, cost-effective, and suitable for hosting websites, applications, or running custom software. They offer greater security, customization, and reliability compared to traditional shared hosting.
