HOW does a VPS beat a regular shared hosting account?

When the first Virtual Private Server was introduced years ago, thе costs of maintaining this innovative hosting solution were high and server resources were still expensive.

Over the years, maintenance costs have dropped and the adoption of server virtualization has become more common, which has made Virtual Private Servers a mainstream solution and which has put them in a position to compete with regular shared hosting services in terms of user preference.

More and more shared hosting users have started asking themselves whether or not to move to a Virtual Private Server.

If you are an e-commerce startup, for example, you will need more resources as you grow. And these do not include only space and traffic.

Even if you avail of unmetered resources on a shared server, you will have a hard time running all the scripts your store needs and handling the growing number of customers and purchase queries because of insufficient server memory.

Here are the features that are typically restricted to shared hosting account owners:

Background processes – for security reasons, most shared hosting providers do not offer support for scripts running in the background. Background processes are often used for content caching purposes. For instance, the Magento script needs the background-running Varnish web accelerator to reduce the response times and the overall network bandwidth consumption.PHP memory – on a shared server, you will be allocated limited PHP memory resources for the sake of server stability. E-stores that showcase memory-intensive product listings need more memory for the PHP processes to run properly.Simultaneous processes – there will be a limit to how many threads can be run simultaneously, again, for server stability’s sake. Simultaneous processes are key to the maximum number of page requests you can serve at any given time and their presence will be crucial for your e-store during peak traffic times.MySQL connections – the number of allowed simultaneous MySQL database connections will also be limited on a shared server. Databases lie at the heart of any e-store, so MySQL connection limits will have an immediate impact on your store’s capacity to handle requests during peak traffic periods. Well, that’s normal.

After all, a server cannot be “unlimited”’.

We have compiled a list of reasons as to why users who’d like to run more complex projects like an e-store prefer going with an entry-level VPS solution.

Dangerous sex Positions For Men

The most common cause of pénile injury is found among the variety of potentially dangerous positions used for séxual intercourse. The most popular is the ‘woman-on-top’. This type of position can result in an impact between the pénis against the female pelvis or perineum that can easily traumatize the pénile cylinders. A pénis becomes érect when the lining of the cylinder within it is engorged with blood.  A pénis fracture can occur when there is trauma to the eréct pénis, resulting in a rupture of the cylinder lining. This very painful injury is often accompanied by an abrupt, distressing cracking noise that is immediately followed by dark bruising of the pénis due to blood escaping the cylinder. In ten to 30% of pénis fractures, the urethra is damaged and blood may be visible at the urinary opening. Given these signs, an injury should be relatively simple to diagnose, right? You would be surprised, even with the unsettling sounds of a fracture occurring, many men...

AWS Battles Rivals: Advertising Campaign

Amazon Web Services has defeated IBM in a competition for lucrative federal contracts, threatened Microsoft's core businesses, and reshaped corporate technology. In the last few months, the pioneering cloud-computing unit of the online retail giant has taken a page from the playbook of some of its more traditional competitors: It started advertising. Ads have been splashed across billboards and in airport terminals, television spots and web videos, featuring a whiteboard full of sketches of software architecture and appeals to invent something using Amazon's collection of rented computing services. The advertising campaign, which bears the "Build On" tagline, represents a milestone in AWS' march from technology upstart to one of the major players in business software, technologists and marketers say. For many years, AWS didn't advertise, partly because it didn't have to. The service held a wide lead over the competition, and word-of-mouth was enough to...
