SSH Client 28 March 2016 about hosting Slovakia. VPS or Virtual private server. A virtual private server is an installation that share space in server hardware with other facilities, such as shared hosting, but have to allocate the resources themselves, as you can see in the network hosting vps, allowing flexibility and scalability when needed. If that's not clear enough, or for the uninitiated in the matter, we explain as follows: a shared server such as staying at home with your family, you have a room, but you share a bathroom, kitchen, etc. With a VPS server, you live in the same House, but larger rooms, it even has its own bathroom, you have a microwave to heat food and good hooks on the door of the room.
