Your questions answered

What is a VPS, and what is it used for?

A VPS is a Virtual Private Server for hosting websites (e-commerce, content, media, etc.) and/or software applications, particularly web based ones (portals, extranet, collaborative solutions, wiki, CRM software, etc.). Unlike shared hosting, this data is isolated on a single virtual machine, with resources solely dedicated to its user.

The VPS is a perfect compromise between web hosting plans and physical servers, combining reliability with the high performance of a dedicated environment. It provides you with more control than a web hosting plan, but without the difficulty of managing a server's physical hardware.

Who can use a VPS?

To manage a VPS, you need basic knowledge of server administration. You will need this to administer the operating system you install (Linux or Windows), and configure your applications.

If you need a VPS but don't think you have the technical skills required to manage it, we would recommend getting in touch with one of our partners

If you'd like to benefit from guaranteed resources but don't know how to manage servers, we would also recommend our Performance web hosting plans

How do I choose between a VPS and a web hosting plan?

If you've used a web hosting plan before, then using a VPS is the next logical step up.

It provides you with even more options, including root access, access to Apache and PHP.ini (modification of PHP variables), and much more. You can also install an SSL certificate, and all software program types. In short, you get more freedom in terms of administering and configuring your server, without the hassle of managing any physical hardware.

Please note that by opting for a VPS, you will need to choose a configuration that best suits your application's requirements, and adapt your configuration to fit your growing needs.

How do I choose a VPS?

Can I move my VPS from one OVH datacentre to another (for example from a French one to a Polish one)?

This feature is not currently available. You cannot migrate or "copy" a VPS across to another datacentre. You can buy a new VPS in the new location and manually transfer your data. However your new VPS will have different IP addresses.

Is my VPS backed up?

OVH may be required to replicate your data as part of our internal operations, such as maintenance. However, this is not a guarantee against the loss of your data. You are responsible for creating your own backups.

To do this, you can use the following backup options: Snapshot (SSD VPS and Cloud VPS) or Automated backup (Cloud VPS).
