A VPS works like a dedicated physical server, but is more scalable, economical and easily configured.

Security and downtime concerns rocks VPS

This makes the cloud-based services an important actor for the enterprises. They provide a reduction in overall hardware requirements in the data center infrastructure, which helps the growth of the virtual private server market.

Limited physical resources and bandwidth concerns drive VPS forward for the hosting services. According to Allied Market Research’s report, it is expected to retain the VPS dominance through 2019-2026. The increase of website monitoring and set-up demand among the organizations boosted the growth.

Linux segment rules the terms of revenue

There are several templates to chose from on a VPS. Most of the VPS services provide Windows Server, BSD, and Linux OS. The report shows the Linux segment accounted for more than 5/3 of the global VPS market revenue in 2018. It is also anticipated to maintain its top status during the study period.

Thus, VPS provides sandbox security without affecting the physical server’s operation. Besides, VPS provides extra security to protect the sensitive data of enterprises, which serves as the key factor augmenting the adoption of VPS solutions among start-ups, small enterprises, and large enterprises.
