Managed Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting is an excellent choice if you’re looking for robust hosting without managing everything yourself. This virtualised server solution provides dedicated resources along with technical support to make it happen for growing businesses.
This article explains managed VPS hosting, its benefits, and how you can get started with VPS servers in Malaysia with MyCloud.
As the name suggests, managed VPS hosting is where you get a virtual private server (VPS) with dedicated resources while the hosting provider takes care of all the technical stuff.
Think of it like having your own private section of a larger computer, but without needing to know how to maintain or operate the hardware.
Unlike traditional web hosting or shared hosting, where multiple users share the same server and its resources, VPS hosting allocates resources like CPU, RAM, and storage to you and only you that no one else can use. This means your website or application runs more smoothly and isn’t affected by what others on the server are doing.
Managed VPS hosting then takes it a step further by having the provider handle all the tricky parts, such as server monitoring, security patches, and backups. It is ideal if you need the power and reliability of dedicated resources but prefer to avoid the security patches, and maintenance.
This option is for those who have technical expertise and want full control over their server. You are responsible for managing, configuring, and maintaining the server. With unmanaged VPS hosting, you have full root access, so you can customise your server environment as you see fit.
In this option, the provider takes care of all the server management tasks, including updates, monitoring, security, and troubleshooting. MyCloud offers one of the best fully managed virtual private server hosting services in Malaysia. Users can focus on their core business instead of worrying about server issues.
MyCloud managed hosting services include both Linux and Windows VPS environments. We ensure reliable hosting and expert support for businesses in Malaysia.
An on-premise server is an on-site, physical server that a company houses in their own facility and maintains individually. Managed VPS hosting brings several advantages compared to traditional on-premise servers:
Setting up an on-premise server involves high upfront costs for hardware, along with ongoing maintenance expenses. With managed VPS hosting, these costs are significantly reduced, as all server resources are hosted virtually.
No need to invest in physical hardware, which can quickly become outdated or require expensive repairs.
As your business grows, your hosting needs can easily scale. VPS hosting allows for flexible resource allocation without any physical hardware changes.
For businesses that experience seasonal spikes in demand, this scalability allows them to adjust resources quickly and efficiently to handle the increased traffic.
Managed VPS environments are isolated. This means data breaches and security issues from other users are less likely to impact your server.
Implementation of security measures such as firewalls, regular updates, and proactive monitoring protects your data at all times.
VPS hosting keeps your applications running smoothly by providing dedicated resources.
The hosting environment is optimised for uptime and reliability. Critical applications can operate consistently with no downtime or disruptions.
Managed VPS hosting is beginner-friendly because the provider takes care of server configurations, updates, monitoring, and security. This is beneficial for companies or individuals without a devoted IT team or technical expertise. MyCloud provides a high-performance and easy-to-use control panel that simplifies managing your hosting environment, making it suitable even for beginners.
If your business’s IT infrastructure needs even more power and control, a dedicated server may be the next step up. Unlike a VPS, which we know is shared between many users, a dedicated server provides exclusive use of the entire server, giving you maximum performance and customisation options.
Getting started with managed VPS hosting is easy. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you set up:
Determine the storage, bandwidth, and scalability your business needs. Consider the type of applications you’ll be running, the expected traffic, and any other technical requirements. A thorough assessment will help you choose the right plan.
Review the different plans that MyCloud offers and select the one that best suits your needs. We have a range of plans to accommodate different business sizes to fit your budget and performance demands.
