Self-managed virtual servers

Choose Your VPS or VDS Server

Get the control of a virtual server with a route that fits what you are building.

Choose VPS for flexible root access, or choose VDS when your website or application needs more dedicated CPU power.

Start with one decision

How much server power do you need?

VDS

A dedicated CPU route for projects that need a stronger, more predictable server foundation.

Two clear starting points

Pick the Server Path That Fits Today

Choose the route that makes sense for your current project. You do not need the biggest server; you need the right level of control and CPU power.

VPS

Flexible Control for Growing Projects

A VPS is a strong all-round choice when you want root access without moving straight to dedicated CPU resources.

  • Run a website, custom application or staging environment.
  • Choose a Linux starting point and configure the server your way.
  • Build a practical foundation for development, client sites or a growing project.

VDS

Dedicated CPU for Demanding Projects

A VDS is the route to take when consistent CPU power is more important to the website, application or service you are running.

  • Use dedicated CPU resources for projects that need more processing power.
  • Give a busier shop, database-driven service or business application a stronger base.
  • Choose a virtual server route built for projects that have outgrown a general VPS setup.

Questions answered

Questions Before You Choose

Clear answers for choosing between a flexible VPS and a dedicated CPU VDS server.

What is the difference between VPS and VDS hosting?

A VPS is a flexible self-managed virtual server for websites, apps and development. A VDS is a virtual dedicated server option with dedicated CPU resources for projects that need stronger, more predictable processing power.

When should I choose VPS hosting?

Choose VPS hosting when you need root access and a flexible server for a website, development environment, custom application or general server project.

When should I choose VDS hosting?

Choose VDS hosting when your website or application needs more dedicated CPU power, such as for a busier store, business system or resource-intensive server task.

Are VPS and VDS servers self-managed?

Yes. Both options are self-managed, so you are responsible for the operating system, software, updates, security and the way the server is configured.

Do VPS and VDS servers include root access?

Yes. VPS and VDS are root-access server products, giving you administrative control over the software and configuration you choose to use.

Can I use VPS or VDS hosting for WordPress?

Yes. A self-managed VPS or VDS can run WordPress when you install and configure the required web server, database and PHP software.

Can I use a VPS or VDS for an API or custom application?

Yes. Root access makes these server options suitable for custom applications, APIs, staging environments and development projects when you manage the setup yourself.

Can I choose a Linux server image?

Yes. The linked VPS image routes show Linux and application starting points you can consider for a self-managed server project.

Should I choose a VPS or VDS for an online shop?

A VPS can suit a smaller or growing shop. A VDS may be a better fit when the shop needs more dedicated CPU power and a stronger server foundation.

What should I choose if I do not want to manage a server?

A VPS or VDS may not be the best starting point if you do not want to manage server software. Standard web hosting can be a simpler route for a website that does not need root access.
