HOSTKEY offers configure and install VPS according to your own needs. You can use a special configurator — a convenient program, thanks to which you set up VPS for web hosting with certain parameters. We use innovative hardware and software to ensure that your projects work consistently and better than the competition.
Shares physical resources with other virtual servers on the same physical machine. You are allocated a specific portion of CPU (cores), RAM, and disk space. However, access to these resources may be limited or affected by other users on the server, unlike with a VDS.
Provides fully dedicated resources such as CPU cores, RAM, and disk space. This guarantees consistent performance and ensures your server operates independently from others on the same physical host.
Each VPS comes with a fully dedicated GPU — one physical GPU per virtual server, without sharing. This guarantees consistent GPU performance for compute-intensive workloads such as ML, rendering, or video processing. CPU and RAM resources, however, are shared among all VPS on the host, allowing for efficient resource utilization while keeping costs reasonable.

To configure VPS, use the HOSTKEY configurator. You can select the appropriate parameters (processor, RAM, drive type and memory size, virtualization type, control panel, operating system) for your resource.
If you setup VPS for web hosting, pay attention to the following parameters:
When starting to make your own VPS, know that the security of the virtual server is ensured by the following mechanisms:
Blocking access using a firewall. One of the simplest security and service VPS measures that all users should take is activating and configuring a firewall. Firewalls act as a barrier between general network traffic and an individual server. They monitor incoming and outgoing traffic and decide whether certain information should be allowed through.
Secure remote connection to the system using SSH. To manage a server that is not accessible locally, you will need to use a remote connection. The standard and fairly secure way to do this is to use the SSH protocol, which stands for “Secure Shell”. VPS SSH allows you to perform end-to-end encryption, transfer unencrypted traffic over a secure connection, use X-forwarding (graphical user interface over a network connection), and much more. Basically, if it is not possible to establish a local connection or use out-of-band management, VPS SSH becomes the main way the administrator interacts with the machine.
DDoS protection. All incoming client traffic is analyzed based on a number of indicators that can signal the start of a DDoS attack. These parameters include the number of unique IP addresses, packet delivery speed, data transfer speed and much more. Traffic is filtered using third-party DDoS protection services — cleaning centers, in accordance with pre-established rules. The system blocks all suspicious requests. Only real users have access to the site. HOSTKEY offers basic and advanced DDoS protection options — you can choose the appropriate one during VPS server configuration.
The VPS configurator at HOSTKEY is a specialized program that allows you to select components for the system. With its help, standard solutions are created, as well as highly specialized computing systems.
You can easily select a server with powerful Intel and AMD processors, at an affordable price, which is 100% suitable for your task. We offer our clients a range of services, which includes protection against DDoS attacks, as well as operational technical support 24/7.
We cooperate with data centers of TIER III reliability level, so we guarantee the stable functioning of your projects. If you have any questions about how to make the correct VPS config, please contact our managers for advice.

HOSTKEY offers the ability to use the configurator so that you can install VPS in accordance with the needs of your resource.
When selecting a VPS server configuration, it is important to consider the purpose of the equipment. It may be needed for various tasks and projects. Therefore, our specialists are always ready to help you choose the right server for an individual configuration.
If you know what parameters are important to you, then use the server configurator. With its help, it is easy to assemble a server with the necessary parameters and get the rental price. After selecting the required server configuration, send the request to specialists — they will process it and provide an immediate response.
With a VPS server, all the resources of this server belong to you, unlike a shared hosting service, where the resources are divided between users. This means you have full control over your hardware and no other server can impact your site's performance.
VPS offers greater reliability and stability compared to shared hosting. This results in improved uptime and performance, as well as faster loading speeds for your website. VPS offers all the features and performance of a dedicated server without any of the high costs. No additional costs for server management and maintenance. Our team will take care of any setup, setup or setup you want to install.
If you want to create your own website or web application, online business, host a game server or do web development, then make your own VPS in HOSTKEY. If you need all the access controls, privacy options, performance metrics and features of a dedicated server, creating a VPS using the configurator is ideal for you.
You can upgrade your free server hardware at any time without facing the hassle of server downtime and website migration. Eliminate the headache of resource management. With powerful, pre-configured instances, full Linux SSH root access provided as standard, always-on HTML5 KVM console access, and in-depth usage statistics and analytics.
If you are unable to configure VPS using the program functionality, contact HOSTKEY employees. Experts will tell you about product parameters and recommend products that meet the stated requirements.
To get advice, you can use the phone, feedback form or email. Finding answers to your questions may take some time.
The configurator is available on the VPS rental page on the HOSTKEY website. You can make your own VPS with the necessary parameters for your project.
Depending on the requirements of your resource, you can configure the VPS server configuration, select the number of cores and the amount of memory. You can also find out the exact cost of a virtual VPS per day or per month. We offer different numbers of cores (for example, VPS 16 core), different amounts of RAM (VPS 4 gb — 16 gb), different amounts of storage (VPS 100 gb — 100 tb).
Before you configure VPS, you need to understand that the server's operation is based on virtualization technology. It allows you to divide the resources of one powerful physical server into several separate virtual servers (or virtual machines) that emulate the full functionality of a regular server. This approach to technical organization allows each virtual server to have its own separate IP address or several of them.
On a virtual server, as on a physical one, there are no limits on the number of email accounts, as well as the number of sites and databases hosted on the hosting. In addition, if one virtual server malfunctions, this will not in any way affect the reliability of the others. Each virtual server user receives root access rights (superuser rights), which provide virtually unlimited customization options.
The operating principles of VPS server software are as follows:
When using VPS, you need to remember that there are different types of virtualization. In total, there are two main types of VPS virtualization — software and hardware. In the first case, virtualization is performed at the operating system level. Moreover, all machines in the system use a common OS kernel and are not isolated from each other. As for hardware virtualization, it is more stable and productive.
If you choose software virtualization when setting up VPS for web hosting, then know that all operations are performed quickly and with minimal delays. In the vast majority of cases, software virtualization is implemented using OpenVZ technology. The main advantages of this technology are not only high speed, but also relative low cost.
You should pay attention to this technology if the site is visited by a stable number of clients, or if you want to save money when choosing a VPS. OpenVZ is a cross between regular virtual hosting and VPS with hardware virtualization.
An analogue of Open VZ is Virtuozzo. This is also a virtualization technology at the operating system level, which does not “like” load surges. It is developed based on OpenVZ and is used mainly for commercial purposes. This is what explains its high cost.
The mentioned technology allows you to completely isolate all virtual machines from each other, as well as allocate a specific amount of resources to them. In general, each server in this case functions as a physical machine. The main software solutions for hardware virtualization are KVM, Xen and Hyper-V.
KVM is the best representative of VPS with hardware virtualization and a good option for VPS setup. KVM allows you to withstand a huge load on the server and at the same time maintain decent performance. Since all machines are separate parts of the kernel, and not modules, there are many other advantages to the technology. When using KVM you will have root rights. This means that you have the right to decide for yourself which operating system will be installed on the VPS, when it needs to be rebooted, and how to manage the allocated resources.
Xen is a more expensive alternative to KVM and you need to think carefully before doing VPS config. At the same time, the technology has almost the same functionality. As with KVM, you can install any operating system on the server and use the paravirtualization function. Each VPS uses its own resources and can be moved to another node if necessary. Note that recently Xen has focused on cloud technologies.
Hyper-V is the most unpopular type of hardware virtualization. It is worth noting that it is not a separate product, but by default comes only with the Windows Server operating system. That is why Hyper-V can only be used in conjunction with a Windows OS. To be fair, we mention that the program does not consume many resources, which allows the server to operate stably.
The following types of control panels are used during the VPS server setup process:
Our configurator offers flexible options so that you can make your own VPS. Be sure that you will receive the required VPS server configuration for your resource.
