With technological changes, there have also been rapid changes in the web hosting plans and procedures. Earlier a general hosting plan was devised and formulated. It was soon followed by semi-dedicated servers that catered to the requirement of clients to a great extent. However it had its limitations and needed change. The changes in the recent era have given a momentum to this idea. As a result it was seen that the Semi-dedicated servers are being quickly replaced by VPS web hosting services. Semi-dedicated servers with all its features as such were pushed into the back seat and thus came about the age of the VPS. Here is a quick review of the reasons:

• Businesses all over are spreading their arms and looking for expansion policies. They have different requirements and criteria. Anything which comes in a general form will be held unimportant and unnecessary. It is the age of customisation where everything needs to be according to the need. When it comes to web hosting, many opt for shared hosting as it is affordable. But due to the limitations of shared hosting like limited space and bandwidth, those having expansion plans suffer a setback. Moreover there are other problems like custom modules installation and rebooting which is difficult. The problem thus calls for the need for dedicated servers that can cater to personalised needs.
• VPS or dedicated servers resolve the issues that arise due to server resources on shared servers. As the resources are shared among the companies that share the server there are risks of data usage. The static web pages do not face much difficulty; however there is always the risk of the account getting suspended if there is a conflict with the forum sites and related resources.
• As the cost of the dedicated server hosting is much high in comparison to that of the shared hosting, many prefer to stick to the shared system in spite of its drawback. This however is not a wise move in the long run as semi dedicated servers which could have solved the problem do not have the proper software support. So it is either shared hosting or dedicated server hosting which although costly will resolve such problems.
• Virtual private servers (VPS) which are a kind of dedicated servers have resolved all the issues quite efficiently. Here the servers are similar to dedicated servers in all possible ways except the sharing of the resources. There are personalised software's that carry out the function of dividing the component that enable CPU sharing. The best part is that the compartments gets separate and behave as a unique identity.
• There are a great deal of difference between the VSP and the shared server due to which the former seems to have a greater hand. VSP enables you with the ability to share a single machine with other users without affecting each other's resources or connectivity. This means that even if one machine has a downtime problem it will not be the same with the other. This was not possible with the share server system.
• The advantages that are associated with dedicated servers are also found in VPS. The user of VPS can have the admin rights and can access the machine to the optimum. Such a feature also enables change or installation of custom scripts or changes in the server setting.

Considering all such reasons it can be safely said that VPS is quickly overpowering semi-dedicated hosting and phasing it out.
