Servers are powerful computer systems for hosting, which host websites or software apps so multiple users can access them at once. Like other computers, servers have certain performance characteristics, for example, the memory, the hard drive and the power of the processors. A virtual server, also known as a vServer or VPS (Virtual Private Server), works according to the same principle. However, a virtual server does not use dedicated hardware, like a hard drive or CPU, rather it accesses one or more parts of certain hardware resources. This means a VPS has some performance characteristics that differ from those of a physical server. For example, the virtual hard drive capacity can be spread over various hard drives, or only use a part of a physical hard drive.

The VPS from hostfeat are ideal for small to medium sized agencies that regularly create or monitor websites for their clients. They are also suitable for the webhosting of the internet presence of freelancers or small businesses. As all our virtual server solutions have full root or administrator access, small to medium sized online shops can also be hosted using them, depending on the complexity of the shop system used, number of products and customer traffic to the page.The root access also makes our virtual server hosting an affordable option for telephone systems, database applications and mail servers.The fast external connection to the internet ensures that accessing your website or application is problem-free.

If your server performance and memory needs vary or change depending on the season, the 1&1 cloud servers are a flexible and cost-efficient solution for you. These virtual servers dynamically adjust to your individual needs.

hostfeat offers two options for creating a server backup on both Windows and Linux: for one, you can use the “professional backup” feature already included in your vServer to secure your data. Furthermore, for a small additional charge, you can create an image of your server which is saved on a separate storage space.
