Why choose a Linux VPS?

The Linux VPS is distinguished not only by its open-source operating system, but also by its many other advantages:

  1. It is a low-cost VPS: unlike other subscription-based operating systems, Linux is open-source, which means it is free. With a low-cost VPS on Linux, you can access high-performance resources without exceeding your budget.
     
  2. Excellent security: Linux is known for its security. Thanks to an active developer community, there are frequent security updates, and vulnerabilities are quickly remediated.
     
  3. Several customisable options: with a Linux VPS, you have the freedom to configure your environment to suit your needs. For example, you can install a cPanel VPS, an Ubuntu VPS, a Debian VPS or any other Linux operating system.

What is a virtual server?

Before we get into the specific advantages of a Linux VPS, we should first understand what a virtual server is. A virtual private server (also called a VPS) is a virtual partition of a physical server.

As with a dedicated server, you are allocated specific resources (such as a central processing unit, RAM and SSD storage space). You can configure your environment to suit your needs, for example, by installing software, adjusting server settings, and even optimising performance.

But unlike a dedicated server, which is an entire physical machine reserved for your use, a VPS is hosted on a physical server shared with other users. This separation ensures that the performance of one VPS is not affected by the activities of other VPSs on the same physical server.

The different use cases of a Linux VPS

A Linux VPS is not limited to hosting websites. Its flexibility allows it to be used in different contexts:

  • E-commerce website hosting: whether you use PrestaShop VPS or a WordPress VPS, a Linux VPS offers a robust solution for managing your online shop. Performance and security are vital for an e-commerce website, and Linux is up to the task.
     
  • Virtual game server management: a VPS for playing under Linux has less lag and allows for smoother gameplay. Ideal if you are an avid gamer, or if you want to allow other players to play without any interference.
     
  • Development and testing: for developers, a Linux VPS is an ideal environment to test applications, run scripts, and simulate production environments before deploying any software. High-performance servers and solid-state storage reduce loading times.

Comparing the available operating systems with a VPS

One of the main advantages of a Linux VPS is the variety of operating systems available with a VPS. OVHcloud offers several operating systems:

  • Ubuntu VPS: ideal for users looking for user-friendly distribution and a large support community.
     
  • Debian VPS: recommended for those looking for stable, high-performance distribution.
     
  • Windows VPS: although Linux is often preferred for a VPS, some users prefer to use Windows for specific applications.

FAQs

What is the difference between a VPS and a shared hosting plan?

A VPS provides you with dedicated resources. This means that you get your own CPU, RAM and SSD disk space, unlike shared hosting, where these resources are spread across multiple users, which can affect your website performance.

Can I install custom applications on a low-cost Linux VPS?

Yes! One of the main advantages of a Linux VPS is the ability to install and configure custom applications. You have full access to install any Linux-compatible software.

How many websites can I host on a Linux VPS?

The number of websites you can host on a Linux VPS depends on the resources allocated to your VPS (vCore, RAM, SSD disk space) and the resource requirements of each site. You can host multiple sites, provided that sufficient resources are available to support the load.
