What's the difference between VDS, VPS & Dedicated Server?

Servers Australia offers both Virtual Dedicated Servers (also known as VDS or VPS) and Dedicated Servers. The main difference between the two technologies is that a Virtual Server generally has lower specifications of a dedicated server and is also on a shared platform with many other customers, therefore this technology is used for lower end sites at a cost effective rate. Virtual Servers are a great reliable platform for many customers.

A dedicated server is a physical machine with the resources being 100% dedicated to just you, this is great for high traffic websites or resource intensive applications. A dedicated server is not as scalable as a Virtual Server, however it can offer a lot more power when coupled with our load balanced solutions View our load balanced solutions.
