What is a VPS?
A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a virtualised server that gives you dedicated CPU cores, RAM, and disk space. Unlike shared hosting, you are not affected by other users' activity. You get root access and can install any software.
Key Differences
Resources
- Shared Hosting: Resources are shared with all accounts on the server
- VPS: Dedicated resources guaranteed to your instance
Performance
- Shared Hosting: Can slow down during peak times
- VPS: Consistent performance regardless of neighbours
Control
- Shared Hosting: Limited — only what cPanel exposes
- VPS: Full root access, install any OS-level package
Price
- Shared Hosting: ₹99–₹499/month
- VPS: ₹999–₹4,999/month
When Should I Move to VPS?
- Your website handles more than 30,000 visitors/month
- You run a WooCommerce store or database-heavy application
- You need custom software (Redis, Node.js, custom PHP extensions)
- Security compliance requires an isolated environment
