VPS or dedicated server
Where VPS stops being enough and dedicated starts to make sense.
A VPS splits a physical host into isolated virtual machines. A dedicated server gives you the whole machine.
VPS fits sites, APIs, VPN boxes and smaller SaaS. Dedicated makes sense under sustained CPU/disk load or stricter hardware isolation needs.
