Windows VPS or Windows VDS? What Changes When Resources Are Yours
Both run Windows Server and both give you admin access over RDP. The difference is how CPU and RAM are handed out on the host.
WINDOWS VPS · SHARED POOL
vCPUs come from a pool shared with other servers. Great value, but busy neighbours can slow you at peak times.
Windows VPS from $7.99/mo ↗WINDOWS VDS · ALLOCATED
Your vCPUs and RAM are allocated to your server. Performance stays predictable when the rest of the host is busy.

Team desktops
A Remote Desktop server for your office
Give each person their own Windows session on one server, with your accounting, ERP or office apps installed once. Needs Remote Desktop Services and a user license per person.

What is a Windows VDS?
A Windows VDS (virtual dedicated server) is a virtual machine running Windows Server, with CPU, RAM and storage allocated to you. You manage it over Remote Desktop like your own Windows server.
Is a Windows VDS the same as Windows Virtual Disk Service?
No. Here, VDS means virtual dedicated server, a hosting product. Microsoft’s Virtual Disk Service is an unrelated Windows component for managing disks that shares the same abbreviation.
What is the difference between a Windows VPS and a Windows VDS?
A Windows VPS draws CPU from a shared pool. A Windows VDS has its vCPUs and RAM allocated, so performance stays predictable. Some providers call this a Windows dedicated VPS.
Is a Windows VDS a dedicated server?
No. It is a virtual server with allocated resources on a shared physical host. If you need the entire machine, choose a dedicated server.
Is the Windows license included in the price?
No. Windows Server is delivered with a 180-day evaluation license. Add your own license key before it ends.
How many people can connect over RDP?
Two admins can connect at the same time. For more users with their own desktops, set up Remote Desktop Services and buy one user license per person.
Is a Windows VDS good for SQL Server?
Yes. Allocated RAM keeps more of your database in memory. VDS-3 with 32 GB suits most production databases. SQL Server Express is free; paid editions need their own license.
Which Windows Server versions are available?
Windows Server 2019 and Windows Server 2022.
How much traffic is included?
5 TB on VDS-1, 10 TB on VDS-2, 20 TB on VDS-3 and 40 TB on VDS-4, every month.
Is the RAM DDR5 in every location?
Frankfurt and Amsterdam use DDR5. Istanbul uses DDR5 or DDR4, depending on the host.
Can I move from a Windows VPS to a Windows VDS?
Yes. Contact our support team and we will help you plan the move.
Do you offer IPv6 or backups?
IPv6 is not available; each server gets one IPv4 address. Snapshots and backups are available as paid add-ons.
