When you’re looking to host a project or run software online, you’ll often come across the terms VPS (Virtual Private Server) and VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server). While they may seem similar at first glance, they offer different levels of performance, isolation, and control. Understanding the difference can help you choose the best solution for your needs.
A VPS, or Virtual Private Server, is a virtualized environment that runs on a physical server along with other virtual servers. It shares system resources—like CPU, memory, and disk—with other users, but it’s isolated enough to give you root access and the ability to install your own software.
A VDS, or Virtual Dedicated Server, also runs in a virtualized environment—but the key difference is dedicated resources. You get a slice of the physical server’s hardware reserved just for your server, meaning performance is more consistent and predictable.
