Can I access my webspace via SSH?

Yes, that is possible with our vServer products . Direct SSH access (e.g., via Putty) can be performed.

A vServer, also known as a virtual server, is a virtual machine that runs on a physical server and shares resources such as processor power, memory, and storage space with other virtual servers. A vServer allows you to create and manage your own server environment without needing to own physical hardware. This offers numerous advantages, such as scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. With a vServer, users can install and configure their own operating systems, applications, and services. Through virtualization technology, multiple vServers can operate on a single physical server, optimizing resource utilization. Virtual servers are often hosted in data centers and provide a stable and secure environment for websites, databases, email servers, and other web applications. The isolation of virtual servers from each other also enhances security, as issues on one server do not affect the others. Overall, a vServer is a popular option for users who need their own server environment without the costs and complexity of a dedicated server.

What are the limitations of a vServer?

With our virtual servers, we divide a physical server system into multiple virtual environments, which are more cost-effective for individual users. Therefore, you share the performance of the high-performance server with other users who have also rented a vServer. The number of virtual servers on a server system is flexibly determined based on the required performance. We want to ensure that you receive the performance data that we guarantee you as part of your contract. To ensure this, as a service provider, we must prevent the disproportionate use or misuse of our resources by individuals. For this reason, we are obligated to prohibit the use of the following services and applications: Commercial or public VPN services Spoofing, phishing, port scans Public DNS resolvers, anonymous FTP, open SMTP relays, public NTP servers, proxy services IRC servers, IRC proxies Peer-to-peer software for illegal purposes Illegal file sharing or torrents Anonymization services of any kind (e.g., TOR) Gameservers Teamspeak CPU-intensive applications such as mining services (Bitcoin, seti@home, etc.) Card sharing software

What should I consider before renting a vServer?

Before renting a vServer, there are several aspects you should consider. First and foremost, it is important to clarify your requirements and the purpose of the vServer. Consider the resources you need, such as storage space and computing power. Another point is selecting the right provider. Conduct thorough research and compare different providers in terms of reliability, security, and customer support. Also, pay attention to the contract terms and cancellation options. Cost is also an important factor. Compare prices from various providers, but also be aware of hidden costs and additional fees. The scalability of the vServer is another point to consider. Think about whether you can add or reduce resources as needed. Security plays a significant role as well. Familiarize yourself with the provider's security measures, such as firewalls and data backups. Finally, you should also check the provider's technical support to ensure you can receive prompt and reliable assistance when encountering issues. By considering these aspects, you can make an informed decision and choose the right vServer that suits your needs.

What does "Self-managed" mean for vServers?

"Self-managed" in the context of vServers refers to the type of server management. With a self-managed vServer, the responsibility for configuring, maintaining, and securing the server lies with the customer or user of the vServer. In contrast, "managed" vServers are where the hosting provider or service provider takes care of server management. With a managed vServer, the provider handles tasks such as installing updates, security patches, monitoring, backups, and technical support. With a self-managed vServer, the user has full control over the server and can customize the configuration according to their needs. They are responsible for installing and updating software, implementing security measures, and resolving technical issues themselves. This typically requires advanced technical knowledge and experience in server administration. The choice between a self-managed and managed vServer depends on individual requirements, technical skills, and resources. Self-managed vServers offer greater flexibility and control but require more effort and responsibility in terms of server management and maintenance. Managed vServers, on the other hand, can be more convenient as the hosting provider takes care of many management tasks but may offer less flexibility.
