VPS hosting offers small and medium sized businesses powerful hosting services, similar to those of a dedicated server, for a fraction more than the price of shared hosting. Performance of VPS web hosting is superior due to your personal control of server resources and the security protection that having your own virtual server provides.

In a recent press release, JaguarPC announced the benefits that VPS web hosting can have for your website and online business. To find out more about increasing the speed and performance of your website through virtual security and control, take a look at JaguarPC’s recent press release, JaguarPC VPS Hosting Plans Provide More Security and Server Control.

What type of control do you get with VPS hosting?

With JaguarPC virtual hosting plans, you get to select the operating system, software, and applications you need for a customized website. You can also monitor and control how much disk space and bandwidth you use since you are the only user on your virtual server. The choices of other VPS web host users will not affect the hosting performance of your website. Furthermore, a VPS host account enables you to test out different application or software options without negatively affecting any other accounts on your server.

Your operating system options for customizing JaguarPC VPS services include Linux VPS hosting and Windows VPS hosting. All JaguarPC virtual private servers come with full management and root access is standard so your level of technical expertise will not limit the performance and flexibility of your website.

How is VPS web hosting more secure than shared hosting?

The main point of vulnerability with shared hosting is in uploading and downloading files through a server-wide operating system. Malicious users may infect every account on an operating system through one corrupted file. Unlike shared hosting, JaguarPC virtual private servers are protected from each other with individual operating systems running on each virtual server. Contaminated files in one virtual server will not affect any other virtual server in the system. In fact, a hacker will not realize that other virtual servers are on the system.

How else does JaguarPC VPS hosting help your business succeed?

Unlimited domains, free DataLockBox backups, and 24-7-365 technical support for every question you may have are standard with all JaguarPC VPS hosting plans. JaguarPC makes it easy for you to succeed. In fact, JaguarPC provides an extensive knowledge base and community forum with the combined experience of all JaguarPC members. Contact JaguarPC today to learn how VPS web hosting can increase speed, performance, and security for your website and online business.

Virtual private server (VPS) hosting is a powerful solution for businesses outgrowing shared hosting. If you are considering upgrading your web hosting plan, read the recent JaguarPC article, VPS Web Hosting: Customized Hosting for Increased Power and Performance.

The VPS web hosting article explains:

• What VPS webhosting is


• VPS web host security


• The high performance and flexibility of VPS web hosting


• Cost of VPS hosting compared to shared hosting and dedicated server hosting


• Different types of VPS hosting plans

The website capability you will experience with VPS hosting will be unlike anything you have previously experienced with shared web hosting services. VPS hosting is very powerful. And when you are ready to upgrade from shared web hosting, but not quite ready for a dedicated server, VPS web hosting is the ideal solution. JaguarPC VPS hosting gives you the power of a virtual server to catapult your business into the next level for data transmissions, security, configuration options, and more.

For those outgrowing their shared hosting accounts, virtual private server (VPS) hosting may be the solution you need to get your website loading quickly and functioning optimally. With significantly more memory, power, and disk space than shared hosting, VPS hosting can be the springboard for considerable growth in your business.

Increased traffic and an increased interest in downloads from a website is great for business, until the loading and downloading times discourage visitors and slow the growth that websites need in order to succeed. A shared web hosting account has numerous other websites sharing network resources and increased traffic, especially a sustained increase in traffic, affects every other website sharing that server. A website on a shared hosting plan that experiences a surge in popularity could quickly reach their resource limitation, resulting in serious downtime.

What makes JaguarPC VPS web hosting great for growing businesses?

With JaguarPC VPS web hosting, you share a server with only a few other websites so you have much more disk space, memory and bandwidth to use, and you control your own operating system. Regular backups, software updates, and constant monitoring of the server means you get to focus on growing your web presence and building a relationship with your web visitors instead of worrying about the status of your web hosting.

With your choice of control panel and operating system, full root access and unlimited domains, JaguarPC VPS hosting provides you with the tools you need to control your website environment for optimal performance. JaguarPC’s technical support is available 24-7-365 for any questions, including details about the different VPS hosting plans: Linux VPS hosting, Windows VPS hosting, and managed VPS hosting.

Join the JaguarPC community

The community forums, where users share tips and experiences, and the dedicated support staff committed to thoroughly resolving any issue, are what set JaguarPC apart from other VPS hosting companies.

It’s critical that businesses complement their servers with an investment in a high-quality backup and storage solution.

By Greg Landis

Businesses of all sizes are increasing their use of the Internet on a daily basis. They are using the Internet to communicate, publish content and store and process data with the help of web-based applications. With all of this content and data being created and stored on servers, there is a corresponding need to ensure its safety. Hard drives can fail, servers can be hacked, human error can cause data to be deleted, and the data centers that house these servers could catch fire or become victim to natural disasters or even terrorist attacks. All of these are plausible scenarios that can threaten the integrity of the data stored on a server.

Because of these realities, it is absolutely critical that businesses complement their servers with an investment in a high-quality backup and storage solution. This will guarantee that mission-critical data and content is backed up regularly and protected against technical failure, human error or disaster. All types of organizations need this type of insurance. A single hard drive failure can result in the permanent loss of important content, contact information, sales records and financial data. Such a disaster would be a death sentence for any organization conducting business on the Internet. There are other good reasons to have a backup plan. With the right protection in place, customers can be free to experiment and push their servers to do more without having to worry about the negative ramifications. It also brings peace of mind that contributes positively to an organization’s operations.

Buy data protection from a hosting company

It makes a great deal of sense to buy storage and backup solutions from a hosting company. They already host the customer’s server and data protection is a logical extension to web hosting that can be integrated and run off the same network. Customers also benefit from a single bill for all their IT hosting services and by working with their hosting company, have a single point of contact, a high degree of familiarity and comfort and the ability to manage their environment from a single unified interface.

Customers should understand that backup and storage is typically not included with a standard dedicated server. It is usually purchased as an optional add-on service. However, a problem in the market is that many hosting companies are not aggressive about educating and selling customers about the importance of data protection. Even worse, many hosting companies do not even have an affordable, fully functional and easy to use solution. Customers that value their data and want backup and storage services should look for a hosting company that has the breadth and quality of services they are looking for.

JaguarPC’s Data LockBox

JaguarPC has been in the hosting business for over a decade and offers its customers Data LockBox, a backup and storage solution built on R1Soft’s industry-leading Continuous Data Protection (CDP) software. CDP enables customers to back up their servers by providing near real-time replication of their data. JaguarPC installs the CDP software on the customer’s server and it takes snapshots and duplicates the content and data onto a separate backup server. Because the data replication process is continuous, customers are able to restore their servers to a designated point in time in the event of hardware failure or disaster. CDP provides bare metal restore capabilities – bringing back the original state of the server, complete with the entire operating system, settings and data. No re-configuring or re-installation of the operating system is required.

Data LockBox brings a number of other features and capabilities to the table.
CDP backs up incrementally, copying only sectors of a disk that have changed since the previous backup. Combined with standard compression technology, this reduces storage utilization and CPU overhead significantly and enables the replication process to be completed within minutes. CDP also features full data encryption during transmission and in storage, ensuring robust levels of security. Other features include a MySQL database add-on, true database in-memory backup, event logs, reporting capabilities and support for both Windows and Linux-based virtual machines.

With Data LockBox, customers receive access to a web-based control panel, which allows them to manage their data protection capabilities and instantly restore content directly from the backup systems. Customer can also set backups to take place on an hourly basis. The level of control provided through the management tool gives customers that prefer to be hands-on the flexibility they are looking for and enables them to access their solution remotely and on a 24/7 basis.

Data LockBox supports servers running on both the Linux and Windows platforms and can be used to backup hosted servers, on-premise servers, office workstations and personal computers. JaguarPC also provides back up servers – powered with free versions of R1Soft – to other hosting companies on a white label basis.

JaguarPC has been in the backup and storage business for several years, having been one of R1Soft’s beta testers and original hosting partners. With a long history hosting for the SMB and enterprise community, and a strong technical grasp of storage technology, JaguarPC is uniquely positioned to meet the data protection needs of customers.

You may have heard about VPS hosting. What is it, and why should you care?

If you need the power of a dedicated server, but can’t afford the price, there is an option. A “virtual” dedicated server uses software like Virtuozzo. A key advantage to a VPS is that it divides a dedicated server into several dedicated servers, by dividing resources such as disk space and RAM.

Virtualization is a great way to enjoy the power of a dedicated server without the cost. With Jaguar PC, you can have a VPS account for just under $20. And you still get all of the options you normally would. You can still choose your operating system (CentOS, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora Core, or Suse), and your control panel software ( cPanel, Interworx, DirectAdmin, or Plesk).

You also get complete root access, which means that you have the exact same administrative access that you would on a dedicated server, so you retain complete control of your domain (or domains).

Just because the price is low, it doesn’t mean that the quality is. We only use the finest components to construct the servers, so you can rest assured that you’re still getting quality service at a fraction of the cost.

Given that you can still host multiple domains with a VPS, this choice is a perfect way to gauge your site’s traffic, and determine whether or not a dedicated server would be in your best interest. The options are endless with a VPS, and with our friendly and eager staff ready and available to help you on your way, choosing a VPS through Jaguar is the right move!

Please tell us a little about yourself.

Im 32, a father of 3, and when I’m not shackled to a desk I enjoy spending time with the family, fishing, and playing guitar. Anyone that knows me will tell you I’m very big on core values in every person we hire, and every project we take on. Core values such as honesty, integrity, and respect are often set aside in the modern world and particularly behind the veil of anonymity of the internet. I believe this is precisely the area where people should adhere to those values the most. If you do, a reference is as easy as saying “google me”.

Can you summarize your educational experience for us?

I graduated high school in 94 and joined the Airforce in 95 where I spent 7yrs learning and growing as a person. I took some college while in the USAF but eventually the demand and excitement of JaguarPC led me to exit the USAF and go at hosting full time.

What do you consider as your accomplishments up to this point?

That I’ve managed to keep a healthy marriage, raise 3 kids, and all while running a very demanding business for 10yrs. Hitting milestones such as 100, 500, 1000 servers has been exciting as well.

Any failures you’d like to tell us about?

Nobody grows as a company or person without some failure. More importantly though is the lessons you take away from the experience. One big failing in the past was letting my excitement get the better of us by not planning properly for our growth. There is no growth worth hurting a reputation built up by a decade of hard work. Now we work our hardest on preserving that ideal.

What is your primary occupation?

Whatever my staff, clients, and partners need from me. I wear the CEO title but the truth is that even with 75 people working for me I still enjoy getting involved in the daily activities where it all got started. Our company is all about reflecting that person touch.

How do you manage your time? Will you describe what you do on a daily and/or weekly basis?

Between my wife and my iPhone I’m able to stay on top of things pretty well most of the time. My week involves a lot of email between my staff, management meetings, networking with other professionals, going over reports from the various areas of our companies, and of course some daily interactions with clients on forums, instant messengers, and the phone.

Do you oversell?

We don’t, except for our shared hosting plans. None of our reseller, VPS, or hybrid plans have any features that are oversold. The shared technology we use and our vast experience lets us manage the shared environments so well that we simply never run into the tiny things some watch all the time like disk space. Simply put, we just can’t run out of disk space. Even as we speak all our clients could increase their usage immediately by 500% and it wouldn’t cause alarm. Like cell phone minutes and bandwidth, the prices of storage are so minute these days its hard to justify placing a limit and letting a 2tb system only collect dust while 80% of the space sits wasted. Overselling as a means of marketing actually is the best way we can tell clients “use more, if you don’t nobody will” . And our system is setup so you have to have 80% of an initial quota actually used before you request more, but you can request more as many times as you want and its automatically added.

Tell us about your control panel, is it based on cPanel and what makes it special?

In our shared environment we use cPanel exclusively, but for VPS, hybrid, and dedicated servers we offer and support a wide range of control panels and software. We have developed a proprietary platform that ties into our servers, billing, software, ips, staff, and pretty much our entire operation. I wouldn’t want to imagine running a company this size and complex without it.

As part of your managed services you propose monitoring, does that include proactive responses?

Yes. And we have some really exciting improvements coming to our operation in the next 30days that will improve that response greatly by adding new methods of alerts and new tools for clients and our staff to respond to those alerts.

You propose VPS solutions on JaguarPC and yet you operate wowvps.com too, why?

Wowvps.com was started off for two reasons; we didn’t want to mix our managed Virtuozzo offering in jaguarpc.com with the unmanaged xen VPS offering. And we wanted a fresh place to kickoff our VSControl software that took years to develop and perfect. We will begin offering the software to the public this year. Finally there is a xen based vps hosting control panel that hosts can rely on.

You have offices in multiple cities and you have also remote technicians all over the world, how do you manage them?

With our software, and my great management team. If I had to manage a staff this size on my own it would consume my day. I empower the managers of the various departments to give them a chance to really make a difference in peoples lives and in the companies growth.

Do you own your data centers?

Not yet. We run colo cages, racks, and other specialized agreements with facilities in Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, Chicago, the UK, and Singapore. We are expanding to other cities as well as currently planning our own facility.

You have a very active community, how did your business benefit from it?

It hasn’t stopped benefiting from it yet . Our clients are equally as awesome as our staff. Often clients are eager to learn things for themselves or just might be curious about something. When they take those issues to our community not only does it reduce our own support load, it builds a sense of community, adds content, and perpetuates itself.

What can we expect from JaguarPC in the future?

We love taking the lead and pushing boundaries of what defines a product. We were right out front pushing vps long before most even knew what it was. In fact I had to request from the owners of WHT to get vps categories and forums added many years ago. We plan to do more of the same and push the envelope of whats possible. This year is no exception, we have some great deals coming very soon made possible by a few unique partnerships we just finalized.

What does the future hold for Greg Landis?

Only God knows for certain but I’ll keep doing what I do best. Because its working for me. I do plan to continue pursuing our larger plans, building data centers, and diversifying Landis holdings in many other non-hosting related opportunities as well. So far I’ve been very fortunate and enjoy spreading it around. Ask me again in another 10yrs

The green buzz is being exploited all over the web and abroad lately. What does it mean to be green exactly?

ok thats not what I meant, but kermit would be proud nonetheless. It means having little or no impact on your environment in short. Consider the materials needed for all the computing and server parts to the ridiculous sums of energy needed to run server farms 24/7. To be quite honest datacenters and server farms are one of the worst things to hit the environment in the modern decade.

Take a look at your homes electric bill and consider how cool it needs to be so your tv doesnt burn out if left on all day and night for years straight. The tv itself is chewing up energy and the a/c is working overtime to cool that system, fans and other systems are working nonstop to remove the heat. Now imagine your one pc in your home office has to remain online all day and night. Now imagine you have one thousand offices in your home, besides declaring bankrupcty since you cant afford the power, how is that remotely close to being friendly to mother nature.

We can and do look at ways to reduce our impact but our electric bill alone tells us when it comes to being green, datacenters have a long way to go. Some ways we try to reduce our impact are recycling hot water from coolers to use as heating for offices, using raised flooring and channels to remove heat and apply cooling better, reducing old ineffecient servers by using more virtualization and newer more efficient processors. The main drive for this happens to be profit margins though, not just being green.

Don’t let corporate spin masters make you think giant datacenters are helping mother nature. The fact is its good for business and thats why its being done. Consider that one cabinet of 25 servers in the sub $200 market, drawing 30amps of power 24/7 is now replacable by one monster vps node. Granted our monster vps nodes pack a lot of power under the hood and easily consume the power of 3 of those servers alone. 25 to 3 is a pretty significant power and cost savings.

So buy more vps hosting , mother nature will thank you for it. Ok probably not but we will, and it really does make a difference compared to the old standard of dedicated servers. Quite frankly the need for dedicated servers under $200 mo is dimenishing quickly thanks to virtualization technologies like Virtuozzo, openvz, xen, Vscontrol.

Offering businesses virtual private servers as a comparable option to dedicated hosting looks to drive down cost and reduce power consumption of hosting datacenters

HOUSTON, TX.

A question we often get asked is, “What is the difference between your VPS plans and your SDX (Semi-Dedicated) plans?”

Semi-Dedicated
Our SDX plan is basically one shared hosting account on a powerful server. What’s different compared to our standard shared hosting plan is that there far fewer accounts on our SDX servers. So you have more resources available to you. For example, if you have a fairly busy forum not suitable for regular shared hosting, you would want to purchase our Semi-Dedicated hosting plan.

SDX is not intended to be used to resell hosting since it is still a basic shared account. It’s intended for those who still want a shared hosting environment that packs a bit more punch. Our SDX plans are also good for a video share website.

VPS
A VPS (Virtual Private Server) is sort of like having a dedicated server in terms of customization abilities but without the extra cost (because it’s still a shared hosting environment). Our VPS plan offers full root or administrator access and you have full control over the settings and software on the server. Think of a VPS plan as having a partition on a large server.

You would have a choice of which OS (operating system) you wish to have installed. The choices are:

• CentOS (most popular)


• Debian


• Fedora Core


• Suse


• Windows<

You can also choose which version of MySQL, PHP, mail, etc. you want installed. (You cannot do this with Semi-Dedicated.) In addition, you get the choice on which control panel you’d like to use to administer your VPS. The choices are:

• cPanel


• Direct Admin


• Interworx


• Plesk

SDX plans come with cPanel only.

A VPS account can be used to resell hosting if you desire. In a nutshell, VPS plans allow you to completely customize the Virtual Private Server to suit your hosting needs.

This is also discussed in the JaguarPC Forums in this thread: VPS vs Semi dedicated

Both are powerful hosting solutions and JaguarPC provides both options at very reasonable prices. Check out these current specials:
