VPS will definitely be much more easier to use and worry-free (in most cases), since you dont have to worry about alot of things - backups, uptime, hardware,etc. And also at affordable rates - managed or unmanaged. Easier reloads, Better OS options, and a lot more "free" customization options.
go for dedicated its better...buy a serve and controll by yourself is best , once buy one has to run for long time changing will be problem.... moving data and some special setup... so to avoid this problem i m suggesting dedicated server
Hi,
If financial problem is not there then i think one should go for Dedicared server anytime, as nothing can compare it. In This the whole server belongs to you and thus you can use the resources of your server according to your rquirement.
Thanx.
How is the journey coming along for you? did you finally select the one you want? I suggest to go with dedicated.

I was skeptical a couple months agobut after getting into the vps business and learning all the ins and outs Ill take a vps any day. I run mine on a 8 core Xeon with 8 Gb ram and right now on that machine only have 13 vps and it runs like a dream. As long as you dont overload the machines is better way to go if for nothing else that you save a fortune in licensing and lose no features.
I run mirrors, a 24.7 radio station and more and have clients that have you tube clones and such and never have any complaints about running these 13 on this machine whatsoever.

If money is no object, I would suggest a dedicated solution. All of the resources for your applications to use. As already stated, the VPS solutions can offer a great performance per dollar (especially if you are on a budget), but I don't think they can compare to a truly dedicated solution.

Actually this decision depends on the type of hosting u are doing , if the site traffic is high or it is supposed to be hight then go for dedicated server . Else u can always choose a VPS with a good configuration its no use hiring a dedicated server for just a tiny traffic . So what really matters is pocket and the traffic .
Well its very difficult to come to exact solution as you have mentioned that money is not a problem . If u would give some more details what you are planing to use ur server for . I would say this hosting on a good dedicated server provider is quite costly then a VPS solution but gives great speed . So its a trade off you have to make .
if your budget is not a concern, than for sure you want to be on a dedi box by yourself. i always thought the vps was a stepping stone in between shared and dedicated. i'm currently in that vps sweet spot -- dont get enough traffic to warrant my own server but i'm finding i really like the fact i can go in and change the php.ini or mysql settings. plus i'm on a managed plan now at the zone.net and it's a huge difference between the "support" godaddy provided. i'm no linux expert but i know my way a bit but its nice to just have them take care of stuff like updating apache, etc.
so if you need the raw horsepower you can go for that dedi but if you need that handholding like i do go for a decent managed vps.
I think that you'd better go with VPS solutions. VPS is something different that shared account. I would recommernd you have a look at HostV.com or vpsland.com for VPS solution.
You know, that no one know better then you your needs. And if you think that you need something more then VPS in future you can look for dedicated sollution now to keep in mind.
The VPS industry is pretty young. I've been dealing with Shared hosting for a long time and just recently got the bug and have been giving a few different VPS's a twirl.
So far things look promising and I have to say I am very impressed with VPS's, and also agree with others that it's a great upgrade from shared. Just be careful because sometimes there are things that you need a dedicated server for, like extremely high cpu usage (game server types) applications.

HostV.com provides VPS and dedi solutions at affordable prices. But sometimes it's really better to use a semi-dedi because some companies (Webhostingbuzz.com) provides quite enough CPU, badwidth and RAM on them that they will meet all your needs.
Virtualization has other benefits besides letting people share some hardware. One of the greatest features available in Xen and OpenVZ (and presumably others too) is the ability to live migrate a guest from one host to another.
On a dedicated machine upgrades normally mean downtime. By putting Xen or OpenVZ in place first, and then using a guest for all your services you gain some flexibility. If you decide you would like another guest for some testing then just resize the main one and create it. If you need to maintain/upgrade the hardware just migrate the guests on to a temporary machine, upgrade, and then migrate them back again. And if you want a really good hot spare just keep a second machine going with synced discs and some monitoring that can bring the guests up moments after the primary node has died.
One of the advantages of going with VPS is that you might be getting all of this as standard, but you would need to check first as you could also be getting a small share of some ropey kit with no redundancy.
If you went the dedicated route you could set all that up by yourself, but on the down side it is a fair chunk of work. Maybe it would be worth talking to a VPS hosting company that has the necessary experience and flexibility to provide you with a custom solution that really meets your needs, since you say financing is not a problem.
