Factors that can affect your vps hosting
1.
2. Many of us feel that once we bought a vps
hosting service from a reputed company then
everything is completed and we are ready to go
live with our website, but not, later we come to
know what exactly it takes from us to maintain
the virtual server in simple way and with 99.9%
of uptime. All the service providing companies
promises 99.99% uptime but there were many
other factors that will effect on the performance
of the server if not given any importance towards
them, let’s see what are they and how they can
effect performance of our vps hosting server.
3.
4. Check with the cost of your virtual machine before finalizing it with
competitors in the market. One need to check all the packages and
plans by comparing the desired plan with multiple companies which
can result in finalizing the best suitable hosting server at best price
which can perfectly fit into our needs and location is also very
important for the virtual hosting server, if you are looking for vps in
your preferred area or in local area please be sure to cross check it
multiple times whether they have the service in that area or not.
5.
6. Virtual machines are configured on a dedicated machine and
these machines utilize the resources of dedicated machine, so the
hardware used for the dedicated machine plays an important role
in the performance of VPS. Low cost and low quality hardware
used in dedicated server can’t guarantee you best performance on
your VPS and there is a higher risk of it going down.
7.
8. Post sales technical support is the main
considerable factor, we need to check with in
how much time they are reverting back to the
tickets raised gives then complete review
about the company’s technical support team
performance, we can get more about these
details of a company in Forums or in online
complaint boards or in Review writing sites.
Make use of these to arrive to an opinion on
this.
9.
10. Check out what infrastructure do they have and maintain to give you the promised
99.99% uptime, do they have uninterrupted power and internet supply to these
servers, do they monitor these things on daily basis, what if there is any power
shutdown or internet supply problem, what happens to your vps in that situations etc.
11.
12. Check what are the safety measures taken
by them to secure your vps against
network attacks, virus and malware
attacks. Are there any Firewalls enable by
default to secure your vps or you need
fund for these additionally.
13. Any service providing company will provide additional features or benefits with
the products that they offer to the customers, check what all additional
features that you are receiving when compared to other competitor
companies, to what extent they are useful to you, are the plan features best
fits into your needs or not.
If taken precautionary measure to monitor these factors before finalizing a vps
hosting plan can make the maintenance and usage a hassle free one and
optimizing it to outperform in the market will becomes easy to any
administrator.
