Choose vps should focus on what, many novices are not very clear about this, in order to help you solve this problem, the following small series will explain in detail for everyone, there are people who need this can learn, I hope you can gain something.

When choosing VPS, what are the key points to pay attention to?

I. Load capacity

Load is far more important than space capacity, although the application of VPS hosting is that multiple users share a single server, but users need to know from the service provider how many users share the same server resources with themselves. Because only after the service provider makes a fair distribution of the resources occupied by each user can the actual interests of the majority of users be guaranteed. If there are too many shared users and the server is overloaded, it will inevitably reduce the stability of the server, reduce the processing power of the CPU, and make it difficult for the program to run, so that the user cannot find the page when visiting the website, cannot link to the database, or even cannot access it.

Generally speaking, according to the different service categories provided by the VPS host, a server should share a few users, and the number of users should not exceed the limit of 50. Some service providers with insufficient number of servers will even place hundreds of users on a server in order to maximize the use of limited hardware resources in their hands. Therefore, if we want to obtain virtual services with "reasonable resources" guarantee, we must pay attention to the strength of service providers. For example, how many servers are used by the service provider, and the "specific" commitment to the user load in the selected VPS hosting service. Therefore, it is best to choose a large-scale website hosting service provider as a partner in multiple comparisons.

II. Flow

Traffic is the number of possible visits to a user's website. Service providers also limit the traffic to each user's website under the principle of fair distribution of server resources, but the problem lies in the extent of their restrictions. If the limit value is too small, it will greatly harm the interests of users. It can even be said that if the traffic value is very small, the storage space of the website will not be of any use, because this will make the browsing speed of the user's website extremely slow.

Generally speaking, as long as the hardware resources provided by the service provider are sufficient, the traffic will not be too limited. However, those service providers who try to "make full use" of limited hardware facilities and cannot provide a lot of traffic, in order to attract as many users as possible, will adopt the method of only adding hard disks without adding servers at the expense of server stability, and increase the space capacity of the same type of VPS host by dozens of megabytes, so as to flaunt their "super large" advantage.

III. Number of links

The number of links refers to the number of visitors who can accept applications at the same time and then open the website page in an instant. The size of the link value is directly related to the login access level of the user website on the VPS host. If the number of links is limited to too few, then the number of people who can access the user's website at the same time is very limited, and the user's web page will have abnormal situations such as long waiting time for visitors. Generally, the support standard for the number of links will not be limited. However, some small service providers can easily monitor users, forcing them to choose high-priced virtual service types, and also make rigid numerical divisions for the number of links, so users need to pay special attention when purchasing.

IV. Online rate

Since the website is built, it should always be kept running to ensure that visitors can log in at any time. This is a logical requirement, foreign VPS hosting providers are generally committed to the online rate of their users 'websites. However, only a few service providers explicitly promise to ensure the online rate of users 'websites in China. Most service providers are easy to have downtime problems due to the limitations of bandwidth, hardware equipment capacity and technical management capacity, so they are unable or unwilling to make public "quantitative" guarantees on this issue.

V. Flexibility

Flexibility is whether the service provider can provide users with economical and convenient service choices. There are two points that deserve special attention from users: one is whether they can decide to increase the space capacity of the website; the other is whether they can use different operating system platforms for the same price. Because these two problems are directly related to the interests of users, once the user's website develops to the original space capacity close to saturation, users must increase the configuration. However, the problem is that many service providers generally do not allow users to increase a small amount of space by 10 megabytes or 20 megabytes in order to obtain high profits, but only allow an increase of 100 megabytes.
