A Virtual Private Server, also called VPS, is not a traditional server, but a server connected to the Internet: a real computer with all its functional costs, but shared with other users.
VPSxxx is the new Virtual Private Server service based on XEN system and offered by HostingVirtuale that completely makes the machine virtual. It's possible to install every kind of software customizing it, without any help by our staff.
It's like having a server by your own with its RAM, CPU quote, its directories and everything else. The main advantage is the price and the fact that you can work on a high customable system with an automatic daily backup guarantee, electric functionality and net connection.
VPSxxx service guarantees 100% root access and enables you to install and update every kind of software compatible with the operating system you choose to buy. According to your preference, it's possible to require the following Linux distributions:
Debian, Fedora, Slackware, Centos, Gentoo e Ubuntu.
For example, you can use the service as a web server, mail server, FTP server, IRC server, shell server and your space can be divided and resold without any limit. The basic configuration includes a static and public IP and 5 GByte disk space (this space includes the already installed operating system) and 128Mb RAM. Soon after, you can buy hardware updates (for example further RAM, an added Hard Disk, etc.) to improve the performance of your service.
