Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS) Technology fundamentally gives you your own UNIX environment. “VDS Hosting” allows each website to operate independently from all other websites on the same physical machine. Within a physical machine, Virtual Dedicated Servers have their own server software that runs inside an isolated file directory and provides autonomy for each website. Security within a VDS environment is unparalleled to that of the “Virtual Hosting” environment. Any compromise to a VDS would only affect that VDS on the physical machine and not any other VDS that resides on that server. VDS website owners have full control of the environment with administrative privileges and may install additional applications along with creating competitor style “Virtual Hosting” accounts contained by your VDS.

VDS Technology was developed by Sphera Corporation. Sphera is the leading developer of Web Hosting Automation and Management software for Web Hosting Providers.
