A computer is a physical or real entity. It can be seen and touched. Normally it allows only one operating system, like Windows, running at one time. Some have two or more operating systems installed but still run one at a time. In the advent of local area networks, several physical computers are connected by wire or fiber cord to a central computer which processes their requests. This central computer is the server. Dedicated Servers at webhosting.uk.com perform the same function, although there remotely located. There are two general types of servers, the file server which only handles storage and data transfers upon request. The other is the process server where actual computations and processes are done in the central computer upon requests of connected computers.
Cloud servers are one step higher. Because of high powered CPUs available these days, it is now possible to run several servers simultaneous in one physical computer. These are called virtual servers because they exist only in the computer or in virtual space. In cloud servers, these virtual servers are assigned to a subscriber and are then called Cloud Virtual Personal Servers or Cloud VPS (Personal because each VPS is owned by only one subscriber). Note that it still serves requests from numerous connected computers via the internet but only for the purposes of the owner. In this VPS, clients can download files, request for searches and others depending on the nature of the website. Thus, Cheap Web Hosting options are now available and at webhosting.uk.com, UK Hosting and others are provided with Cheap VPS.
