Advantages of a VPS
VPS hosting has many advantages. In addition to the excellent security it provides, a virtual private server allows you to achieve exceptional performance on your website.
enhance security
VPS provides optimal security for all data and users of your servers due to a combination of several elements:
- an ssl certificate Such as the wildcard SSL certificates that IONOS includes in all of its virtual private server offerings.
- powerful firewall : In IONOS, each firewall on your VPS is customizable through individual rules that can be set up through the Cloud Panel. IONOS Cloud Panel allows simplified management of each customer’s respective VPS.
- ddos protection : To strengthen the firewall to counter any external malicious intrusion that may alter the operation and access of the website on the server.
- regular data backup : At variable frequency according to the policy adopted by each supplier.
unlimited traffic
Some VPS offers do not limit traffic on your server. This is especially the case with the VPS offered by IONOS, which guarantees you unlimited traffic and lets you forget about the slowdown associated with traffic restrictions.
