Who VPS hosting is for
A VPS makes sense when shared hosting stops being enough but a full dedicated server is more machine than you need. Typical workloads are production web applications and APIs, staging and CI environments, game panels, Discord bots, VPNs and proxies, small database servers, and self-hosted tools like Nextcloud, Grafana or a Git server. You get root access and guaranteed CPU and memory, without paying for a whole chassis.
