What is the major difference between Windows and Linux VPS?
-
Major difference of Window and Linux VPS Server:
1. Linux Hosting is better if you're a "Tech Savvy" enterprise!
While Microsoft is a better recognized consumer brand across the world, in the world of technology, Linux has a better reputation as a more "Flexible" software solution. This is because Linux is an "Open Platform" solution, while MS Windows Hosting doesn't allow you to customize tools and features of your server by yourself.
2. Windows Hosting is NOT more expensive than Linux
People often feel that Microsoft products are more expensive than Linux Hosting solutions, but this is not true. While Microsoft isn't an "Open Platform" with the advantage of self-moderation on the original program, that is not always necessary!
3. Window Hosting is easier for people to adapt to than Linux
While around the world, Microsoft has a bigger brand reach; Linux is not as well known in India. More people use MS Windows than Unix systems in India; so when setting up your website hosting - you have to choose carefully depending on your employees / partners.
The core difference between Windows and Linux Hosting is that the enterprise using the solution on a day - to - day has to make a wise choice. There is no definite "Better" between the two companies; just consult a reliable web hosting provider on what's better for you!

The expense is the most noticeable difference between the two right away. Windows is a commercial operating system, while Linux is an open-source operating system that is free to use. As a result, both the form of use and the price of Windows and Linux VPS servers are very different.
