VPS (Virtual Private Server) or VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server) — a virtual dedicated server. Its main difference from a dedicated server is that the virtual server does not use the server hardware directly, but works together with other VPS in powerful virtualization server.
The virtual server is needed when the project does not have enough resources of virtual hosting and it is still unprofitable to rent a dedicated server. VPS is also useful for those projects which need to configure system services in a special way or establish something non-standard.
Capabilities of virtual server almost correspond to a physical dedicated server. It is possible to set there the required operating system and configure everything exactly just as you want. You can also connect to the console of the virtual server on the VNC protocol and look at the process of operating system’s loading or to fix something that is broken at this point. And if at some time VDS is going to need more memory or CPU cores, they can always be ordered separately.
