Why Ruby on Rails?
By taking help of Ruby programming language you can manage most of the complicated aspects of developing web applications. With most of the other programming languages it becomes harder for the developers to manage all issues that occur in the web environment. To overcome these problems Ruby on Rails was introduced in the market, which later gained remarkable popularity and took web development by storm. The two basic guidelines of Rails framework are - 'Limited Software' and 'Convention over Configuration'.
An application becomes competent if it is developed using less code and can be implemented easily in any environment. It has been observed that complexities in code result problems in understanding the system and maintaining it. Moreover, writing too much of code not only consumes time and effort of the developers but also complicates the debugging process of the application. Here comes the necessity of Rails, as it comes with limited software and improves the implementation process by reducing time and effort of the developers. Another approach is simplifying XML configuration. There is no need of configuring files in Rails application because it follows simple programming conventions - it can figure out everything through reflection and discovery (E.g. Rails uses intelligent reflection to automatically map database tables to Ruby objects).

CPanels and other features
Apart from these facilities, other features of Shared Hosting are quite similar to VPS Hosting. While ‘Custom Control Panel’ is available in the Shared Hosting, VPS Hosting, on the other hand, offers Advanced Control Panel.
Advanced control panel is a user-friendly tool that lets you control all features of hosting account. This control panel is based on database and offers inbuilt help function on every page of the control panel.
Components of VPS Control Panels are:

Workgroup Administrator - it provides the facility to manage website’s settings, file, directory, email, mailing lists, applications and other features of websites.
My Control Panel - it manages personal directory and email account of the end-users.
‘POP3 e-mail account’, ‘Web based e-mail’, ‘E-commerce’ and ‘immediate account setup’ are some common features available in both Shared Hosting and VPS Hosting.
For the beginners, it is recommended to select the option Shared Hosting to host their websites. Though it is described that VPS Hosting option provides better control and security of the website, the cost of subscribing for VPS Hosting matters. In a Shared Hosting environment, all websites use common operating system and server resources. This is the main reason behind the slow performance of the web server and is regarded as a drawback of Shared Hosting option. But still it is true that both ‘Shared Hosting’ and ‘VPS Hosting’ have their own advantages.
VPS Hosting
VPS stands for Virtual Private Server. VPS is the collection of virtually separated entities of a single server. VPS Hosting environment has the ability to host unlimited domains through a web server. Security and Root-level accessibility - these are two reasons that make Virtual Private Server hosting - a popular web-hosting platform. It has been observed that websites designed for individual or business processes require customized solution. VPS hosting is the right option for clients, who require ‘Super-User’ accessibility, customized solution and necessary security.
Select the right web hosting plan
Be it a small business or a MNC (Multi National Corporation), choosing a right hosting option is vital and this task becomes easy if you have a little knowledge about the hosting technologies and services. Web Hosting Service is broadly divided in two categories – Dedicated Web Hosting Service and Shared Web Hosting Service.
Dedicated Web Hosting Service allows the client (individual/organization, who want to host their websites) to take full control of the server including the operating system and hardware. Dedicated Web Hosting Service does not allow multiple clients to host their website from a single server. On the other hand, Shared Web Hosting Service provides the facility to host multiple websites from a single server. Compared to ‘Dedicated Web Hosting’, the option ‘Shared Web Hosting’ is quite economical and has become popular across the globe.
To satisfy different choice and preferences of the clients, technological improvement has taken place in this arena to fill up the gap between Shared Web Hosting Services and Dedicated Web Hosting Services. This has given the birth of ‘VPS Hosting Service’. Though it is true that ‘VPS Hosting Service’ and ‘Shared Hosting Service’ supports hosting of multiple websites through a single Web Server, but they are different from technological aspect.
