To completely understand what Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS) Technology is, you must first understand the hosting technologies that the majority of our competitors use. Our competitors choose to use a "Virtual Hosting" technology; which essentially is the hosting of multiple FTP sites on a single machine that uses one set of processes. FTP sites hosted under a “Virtual Hosting” environment utilize a single, common shared FTP server and are located in the same file system directory with all other FTP sites. There are security vulnerabilities under competitive environments that would allow a single compromise to affect the performance and security of the entire machine.

FTP Today's VDS Technology fundamentally gives you your own UNIX environment. “VDS Hosting” allows each FTP site to operate independently from all other FTP sites on the same physical machine. Within a physical machine, Virtual Dedicated Servers have their own server software that runs inside an isolated file system directory and provides autonomy for each FTP site. Security within a VDS environment is unparalleled to that of the “Virtual Hosting” environment. Any compromise to a VDS would only affect that VDS on the physical machine and not any other VDS that resides on that server.
