You’ve outgrown shared hosting and need more resources, but a dedicated server feels like overkill. Windows VPS hosting fills that gap. Here are four signs it’s the right fit for your business.
1. You run Microsoft technologies
If your applications use ASP.NET, SQL Server, .NET Core, IIS, or other Windows-only software, you need a Windows host. These don’t run on Linux. A Windows VPS gives you the right platform with full compatibility, and you can install any Windows software you need.
2. You need more power without dedicated server cost
A VPS gives you dedicated CPU, RAM, and SSD storage in a virtual machine. You get the performance and control of having your own server, at a fraction of the cost of bare metal. You can start with a small plan and scale up as your business grows.
3. You need data isolation
On shared hosting, your files sit alongside other customers on the same server. On a Windows VPS, your data runs in its own isolated virtual machine with its own operating system. Other customers on the same hypervisor can’t access your files or processes. For businesses handling sensitive customer data, this isolation is important.
4. Your traffic is seasonal
E-commerce, tourism, tax preparation, and many other businesses have busy seasons. With VPS hosting, you can scale up resources before the busy period and scale back down after. With hourly billing, you can even spin up additional virtual servers for short periods and pay only for the time you use them.
