Powerful VPS Hosting for
Linux and Windows

VPS hosting is used for a variety of online projects that require more power, control, and flexibility, such as robust websites, web apps, and online game servers. It provides dedicated resources like CPU power, RAM, and disk space, which aren’t shared with other users like in shared hosting, creating an optimal environment for your projects.

Users with a VPS typically have full root access allowing them to install any supported operating systems and configure their servers to their needs. Linux VPS, for example, offers extensive features and controls due to its open-source nature.

VPS hosting offers a balance of resources and cost, making it an ideal choice for those needing more resources than shared hosting can offer but without the higher price tag of a dedicated server.

No, Port 25 is blocked on our VPS Hosting servers. This security measure is adopted by the majority of hosting providers to prevent abuse. To send emails from your VPS, you can either use alternative ports such as 587 or 465, employ a third-party email service, or consider upgrading to one of our dedicated server solutions.

Shared hosting is ideal for small projects, where users share server resources and space, limiting customization and potentially impacting performance due to other users’ activities. On the other hand, VPS hosting, like Hivelocity’s offerings, reserves dedicated resources on a physical server for each user, offering more power and customization. This makes VPS hosting more scalable and powerful than shared hosting, albeit at a higher cost. In shared hosting, you share the server directly, whereas in VPS, you have more control over the virtual space, creating a balance between shared and dedicated server hosting.

Hivelocity VPS servers are self-managed.

In self-managed hosting, the provider grants users full control over the configuration and management of their virtual server. This means users are responsible for all technical and administrative tasks, including dealing with unexpected server failures. Therefore, users should have sufficient technical skills to effectively utilize self-managed hosting.
