In this article I’m going to discuss/review about ISPsystem, a rapid-growing Web Hosting Software Company. It provides innovated solutions for Web Hosting Needs. Recently I came to know two of its state of the art web hosting software. They are VDSmanager – Virtual Private Servers management system and ISPmanager – web hosting control panel.

Hope you’ll find this review useful!

VDSmanager – Virtual Private Servers Management System

VDSmanager is a Web Control Panel for management of Virtual Private Servers (VPS, VDS), which makes it possible to divide one physical server into multiple isolated virtual machines, and each one performing as an independent, stand alone-dedicated server.

VDSmanager is a tool for FreeBSD and Linux servers, which allows to set resources (CPU, RAM, disk space) quota for each VPS account.

The VPS enables multiple customers to share the expense of hardware and network connections (and completely eliminate the hassle of maintaining it all) without sacrificing performance or the freedom to run whatever software you choose. VPS multiple customers share hardware, they do not share software.

When purchasing a VPS you are given full root/Administrator super user access to the system and it runs almost in the same way that a dedicated machine would. Each VPS can be independently rebooted, shutdown or started up via our VPS control panel to manage your system online.

Features of VDSmanager

The VDSmanager Control Panel provides three access levels each of them having its appropriate roles and responsibilities. VDSmanager’s user hierarchy enables higher level users to access the accounts of their users below. Administrators can log in to any reseller account, their customer’s account and their individual domains.

• Absolute root access: VDS Admin has an absolute access to all the files stored on the server, including the ones from preinstalled software package. Administrator can install any other software compatible with the software used; reboot Virtual Dedicated Server from shell or via web-browser.

• Preinstalled software: The number of preinstalled software packages is unlimited and will be automatically mount into the VDS file system.

• Flexible configuration: Each VDS has certain limits on processor time, RAM, CPU and disk space usage, number of simultaneously running processes, file descriptors, IP packages. You can change these parameters without rebooting your VDS.

• Hierarchy of access: VDSmanager users – Admin, Reseller, VDS Owner.

• Scalability: VDSmanager has an open API (application programming interface). So you can use all features of the control panel in your programs.

VDSmanager advantages

• Due to the shared memory multiprocessing technology, one application may run many times on many servers. That means the parallel applications will consume less RAM.

• Shared users file system (private disk and disk template) eliminates file duplication and the time it takes to move large files over networks.

• They also provide centralized operating system updating.
