VPS hosting means that one dedicated server is broken into a few pieces. Depending on the web host, the pieces (also called “containers”) can range from a few all the way up to 40-50. If you find cheap VPS hosting under $50/month, most likely you are going to share server resources with 50 other websites.
What is VPS Hosting in the Cloud or Cloud VPS?
This is where it gets very interesting: As explained above, VPS hosting relies on one dedicated server, which means that your container, or VPS, is relying on the mother server (dedicated server) to provide its resources and power. What happens if the dedicated server crashes or breaks down, which is not uncommon?
In that case you have downtime, maybe hours of downtime, depending on how fast the system admin team can respond. “In the cloud” means that you are not relying on just one dedicated server for resources; you’re counting on hundreds of dedicated servers for power and resources.

Virtual private server (VPS) is the method of dividing or splitting a physical server so that it serves multiple websites. In this case one computer can have several of these Servers, each one with its own Operating system (OP) that runs the hosting software for a particular user. Each of this server can run its own operating system and can be rebooted on its own. Most times it serves as a dedicated server to the user because it gives independence on shared servers.
The ability of a single subscriber to maintain multiple virtual servers is also a useful advantage and aspect of virtual private server. Most upcoming companies, offer this service as an additional web hosting service while some companies even call it a dedicated server. It also serves as an alternative server for small businesses or companies that need a modified website server but cannot afford a dedicated server. It is obviously cheaper and gives maximum satisfaction!!!
Virtual Private Server(VPS) bridges the gap between shared Hosting and Dedicated Hosting. It uses partitioned servers on a single web server which doesn't interfere with one another and are similar to a dedicated server in many ways. Hence, VPS Hosting becomes very popular day by day and it is used for various objectives like VOIP VPS, eCommerce VPS, Mail server etc.

VPS is great as it slips in nicely and bridges the gap between shared hosting and dedicated hosting services. VPS will give you the independence and flexibility of a dedicated hosting service, but at the price of a high-end shared hosting service.
A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine provided by an Internet hosting service. Although a VPS runs in software on the same physical computer as other customers' virtual machines, it is in many respects functionally equivalent to a separate physical computer. A VPS is dedicated to the individual customer's needs, has the privacy of a separate physical computer, and can be configured to run server software.

Hello All,
Virtual Private Server, is a server that is partitioned with each section acting as its own server. Typically this is less expensive...
A virtual private server or VPS is a private plot on a large colony. A VPS provides us full control over a slice of a server. Generally a server that contains an OS and provides us root access to it , while other customers are on the same server in which our VPS sits on, have no access to specific slice or VPS, so it’s safe and secure.
