What is VPS Cloud Hosting?2019-06-03T10:40:17+00:00

VPS Cloud hosting is the latest form of hosting that has become extremely popular over the past few years. The main concept of cloud hosting is “Divide and Rule method” – the resources required for maintaining your website are spread across a cluster of servers that work together, termed as “the cloud”. This greatly reduces chances of any downtimes in case of a server malfunction.

What is the difference between Cloud VPS and Shared VPS?2019-06-03T10:52:17+00:00

When a VPS is hosted on a single server, the website is placed on the same server as many other sites, ranging from a few to hundreds. Typically in this setup, all domains share resources, such as RAM and CPU from the same server. VPS Cloud hosting, on the other hand, offers nearly unlimited ability to handle high traffic spikes. On Cloud, your VPS is hosted not only on one but on several servers connected to work as one. Your websites don’t depend on only one Server– even if one server is inaccessible, the Data is retrieved and processed by the other available servers with no downtime.

How Reliable is your Cloud Hosting?2019-06-03T10:51:43+00:00

Our Cloud VPS offers high reliability. Your cloud Sites on a VPS automatically distributes three mirrored copies of your data across multiple devices to ensure safety and protection. The website is hosted on a virtual partition which draws its resources, such as disk space, from an extensive network of underlying physical servers.

Upto 16 GB RAM and 8 cores can be added with any VPS Hosting Plan with additional cost, Kindly contact support for that.

You are responsible for your backups and web content. We create our own monthly backups , and can restore your VPS content from those per your request. However, this is NOT a procedure you should rely on to keep copies of your content safe; we recommend you make your own backups.
