I. concept distinction

VPS server uses virtual technology to divide the physical server into several independent spaces, each of which is a virtual server, that is, VPS server, which is Virtual Private Server in English. Users who rent VPS servers will not have the full right to use the whole server, but only have the rights to rent VPS servers themselves, but they also have independent IP and operating systems, which can be restarted, booted, and so on.

Physical servers are computer devices with high computing power and high performance. There are hard drives, motherboards and CPU, similar to everyday PC computers. However, physical servers are devices used in enterprises to process and store data. They have higher performance, stronger computing power and higher scalability than PC computers.

II. Price comparison

In general, the price of a VPS server is much lower than that of a physical server, and the price of a low-equipped VPS server can even be as low as tens of yuan, while the price of a physical server varies from hundreds to thousands depending on the configuration.

III. Comparison of hardware and software

VPS servers and other users share storage space and hardware and can only use a certain percentage of memory space, while physical servers enjoy complete memory and hard disk space of the whole server. The VPS server can only see a few parameters in the device manager interface, while the physical server can view hard disk, keyboard, optical drive, and other information. The CPU of VPS servers is usually high-end but has less memory and hard disk space, while physical servers have 1T of memory.

IV. Performance comparison

Because the VPS server is separated from the physical server, although it is no different from the physical server, it is not as stable as the physical server, and the operation speed is slower than the physical server, so it is suitable for customers with low configuration requirements. On the other hand, the physical server has higher stability, high speed and high performance, which is suitable for all kinds of industries with high configuration requirements.

Generally speaking, if you need a server with high performance and high stability, it is recommended to rent a physical server, but if there is no high requirement for configuration, the utilization rate is not high, and you want less capital investment, it is recommended to rent a VPS server.
