Virtual
Private Servers gained popularity and more
and more people have a need for something
other than shared and dedicated web-hosting
services. A virtual private server is a
single physical server that is split into
multiple virtual servers. The attractiveness
of Virtual private servers or VPS is that
they allow root level access to each of
the clients, yet they do not require physically
dedicated servers. VPS are mainly used for
duplicate or copy websites. Virtual private
servers are also used quite often to create
honeypots, which refers to the ability to
allow a specific machine to run software
that knowingly has security or other flaws. |
