HOW IT WORKS

How a Linux VPS Works

One physical server is split into separate virtual servers. Each Linux VPS has its own operating system, IP address and root access. CPU cores are shared across the host, while your files and settings stay yours.

YOUR QUESTIONS

Linux VPS FAQ

What is a Linux VPS?
