Be it a small business or a MNC (Multi National Corporation), choosing a right hosting option is vital and this task becomes easy if you have a little knowledge about the hosting technologies and services. Web Hosting Service is broadly divided in two categories Dedicated Web Hosting Service and Shared Web Hosting Service.
Dedicated Web Hosting Service allows the client (individual/organization, who want to host their websites) to take full control of the server including the operating system and hardware. Dedicated Web Hosting Service does not allow multiple clients to host their website from a single server. On the other hand, Shared Web Hosting Service provides the facility to host multiple websites from a single server. Compared to Dedicated Web Hosting, the option Shared Web Hosting is quite economical and has become popular across the globe.
To satisfy different choice and preferences of the clients, technological improvement has taken place in this arena to fill up the gap between Shared Web Hosting Services and Dedicated Web Hosting Services. This has given the birth of VPS Hosting Service. Though it is true that VPS Hosting Service and Shared Hosting Service support hosting of multiple websites through a single Web Server, but they are different from a technological aspect.
