VPS is just like owning a set amount of space in an office building. Virtual private servers provide the performance of a dedicated server running on a machine located in a shared environment.
Dedicated servers provide you the full control or nearly full control over your server for its use. Like a VPS, you may choose the operating system or compatible software of their choice which is most appropriate for your business.

Differences between vps and dedicated hosting is as below:
Linux-based VPS may cost less per month than the least expensive dedicated Linux server
Both VPS and dedicated servers offer high performance, but dedicated may be more predictable.
VPS also provides you the flexibility to increase or decrease your resources depending on the actual demand.

VPS Hosting includes our 4GB, 6GB, and 8GB VPS Hosting Plans. VPS Hosting is similar to owning a Condo. While you still share things on the property, you are ultimately responsible for maintaining your own property and repairs inside the condo. There is also significantly less residents per building and assigned parking. On a Virtual Private Server, you are allotted resources that are not shared by everyone. The over all CPU time and memory are shared across all accounts on the machine, but at the same time portions of those resources are always dedicated to each account. This allows for more power and flexibility than being on a shared account.
Dedicated Hosting includes our Essential, Advanced, and Elite Dedicated Server Hosting Plans. Dedicated Hosting can be compared to owning a house. You are allowed and have access to all resources available on the machine. No one else's account resides on the machine (your house) and would not be capable of tapping into your resources.

There are two types of VPS that are usually offered. One gives you a true virtual machine where you can run anything you want and are the root. The second gives you a dedicated control panel like cPanel, but you share server configuration with other users. Performance is much better than shared hosting and unlimited limits tend to be less. With a VPS you get a virtual machine image, which will probably be a Linux distro. Then you're on your own to load your own LAMP stack and set up server management.
With dedicated hosting you get a server dedicated to you, no more sharing with anyone else. You're free to run whatever you want, and your ISP will never complain, because you're not slowing other customers down. You can configure your environment however you want. You still are not completely unlimited, because you are still sharing bandwidth with the other customers, and you still have to abide by the acceptable use policy, as far as content.

VPS Hosting
VPS Facilitating is like owning an Apartment suite. While despite everything you share things on the property, you are at last in charge of keeping up your own particular property and repairs inside the apartment suite. There is additionally altogether less inhabitants per fabricating and doled out stopping. On a Virtual Private Server, you are dispensed assets that are not shared by everybody. The over all CPU time and memory are shared over all records on the machine, yet in the meantime partitions of those assets are constantly devoted to every record. This takes into account more power and adaptability than being on a common record.
Dedicated Facilitating
Devoted Facilitating can be contrasted with owning a house. You are permitted and have entry to all assets accessible on the machine. Nobody else's record lives on the machine (your home) and would not be equipped for taking advantage of your assets.

A dedicated server is one where you have all the full control over the particular server. It's the advisable server if you run a very busy site and high volume of data. All the server facilities are for your exclusive use unlike VPS where you tap your connection to the server from a shared facility.
It is really important to choose the one which is right for you because it is the experience that you give to the website visitors. If the experience is an unpleasant one then you won't get further visits on your website. It's time now to discuss about the differences between VPS and dedicated servers.
Dedicated servers have good storage ability and capacity. They are quite expensive in nature and cost. It is perfect if the business that you have is quite big and can afford such heavy expenditure. VPS has sorts of that of dedicated servers but they come at a reasonable price. One can expect root level access to the server. This is surely an amazing feature
Both of VPS and Dedicated servers also offer the best level of security for the websites but as compared to VPS, dedicated server's performance is excellent, in terms of security, firewalls and technical support management.
Dedicated server has an advantage of allowing large traffic on the website due to virtually unlimited bandwidth. This type of server hosting is ideal for large business organizations or portals.
Based on these points it is easy to conclude that both of these options provide similar advantages and features and also Clarify that if you are looking the server for small business and cost effectiveness, then VPS hosting would be a better option for you.

Besides shared hosting, there is VPS hosting and dedicated hosting. VPS hosting is very alike to dedicated hosting in numerous ways. So how do you match among the two and come to a purchasing decision?
Both kinds of hosting provide you a secure amount of server resources. These resources (i.e. RAM and hard disk space) are assigned to your account, and they are for your use only. In a shared environment, the capitals are shared. That is why certain websites tend to load deliberate on a shared server, equal though it's just a static website. Additional sites may be using up a portion of the resources. On a VPS or dedicated server, you will not experience this problem.
A VPS exist in on the same server, but it's actually a virtual server. That means no physical server exists. The VPS is partitioned using sophisticated server software. The VPS controls and work like a standalone server but in actuality, it's still on a shared server. Though, the software is able to detach the server into diverse "compartments" so that one "compartment" won't affect the other.
For this reason, you can imagine VPS servers to deal smaller amount of resources, meanwhile the resources are "split" among the various partitions. Resources must be your key deciding factor. A VPS may deal just about 512MB or RAM, while a dedicated server can offer up to 2GB of RAM or more.
Apparently, having a dedicated server make sure that your site is more accessible. Of course, if your website is not ever intended to reach such a stage, hosting it on a dedicated server would be a waste of resources. The mainstream of the websites need only a shared server or a VPS server.

VPS Hosting
A VPS hosting has a single physical server that is bifurcated for creating multiple virtual servers and each of these is capable enough to function independently. In this case, the clients get the root access to the server and can tweak server settings for meeting their business needs.
VPS hosting is free and allows users to install applications and scripts needed to boost their businesses. With a managed VPS hosting, clients enjoy higher scalability and there is zero downtime during upgrades. Clients can go for hardware upgrades such as additional RAM or bandwidth or even disk space.
Dedicated Server Hosting
In dedicated hosting, the entire server and its resources are used by a single server only. When a single user uses these resources, he gets higher flexibility, customizability, better technical support and enhanced security for his clients.
With a managed dedicated server plan, tasks like buying, deploying, maintaining and monitoring the server lie with the hosting provider. They ensure installation of the servers, routined upgrades, installation of software patches, etc.
In a nutshell, dedicated hosting refers to the hosting solution where the entire server is leased by a client and managed by the hosting provider. In dedicated hosting, the number of resources offered by the server is limited for the client. Dedicated hosting is mostly meant for e-commerce websites.
I hope you understood the basic underlined difference between VPS Hosting and Dedicated Server Hosting.
