About EKtronics
Virtual Hosting refers to an environment where multiple domains/sites are hosted on the same server. There are two ways to implement Virtual Hosting - 1) Shared and 2) Virtual Private Server (VPS).

Shared -- This is the most common model for Virtual Hosting. A file directory is set up for each domain. Each domain "shares" certain resources, including the web server, mail server, and other key server software components. Each hosting account has a limited ability to run processes for their own use. Shared hosting has significant disadvantages, a few of which are listed below:

Stability Issues -- Since many accounts are sharing the operating system, web server, mail server and other key resources, a bug or technical problem with one site can cause a system wide crash, which brings down every site on the server.

Performance Issues -- There is no way to effectively control resource usage in the Shared environment. One account can consume a large portion of CPU, memory or disk space resulting in fewer resources being available for other accounts.

Security Issues -- Data and configuration settings are co-mingled in the Shared environment and are protected only by file level passwords. The security of your data can be easily compromised.

Control Issues -- Due to the fact that each account shares core software components, there are many component level configuration settings that must also be shared. This severely limits the ability to configure and control the environment at the individual account level.

Virtual Private Server (VPS) -- Under this model, software innovation has been used to create a vitual server that performs as if it were a full server dedicated to the exclusive use of each account. This behind the scenes sophistication results in a superior hosting solution that is simple to use while eliminating the disadvantages of the Shared approach. A few of the key advantages of the Virtual Private Server hosting environment are listed below:

Insulation -- Each virtual private hosting server (VPS) is completely partitioned from one another. A crash or lock up on one VPS has no impact on other virtual servers.

Performance -- Each VPS receives a specified allocation of CPU, memory, and disk. The environment allows for bursting within reasonable limits, but does not permit one VPS from dominating the physical server's resources. The result is that each VPS receives a guaranteed level of service.

Security -- Each VPS behaves exactly like a dedicated server, allowing the full security scheme to be utilized with absolutely no commingling of data among virtual servers.

Control -- Each VPS can be administered with total control of all settings using the powerful, yet easy to use control panel or via the command line.
