Linux VPS vs Windows VPS: what’s the difference?

If you would like to know the difference between them in detail, we can definitely write a book about it. But in short, 70% of servers are based on Linux, because of its security, stability, and low consumption of hardware resources. Windows is a great choice when you have projects built on ASP.NET or you need to set up IIS or you need to have a remote virtual desktop for work purposes via RDP. For all other projects go with Linux like Debian, CentOS, Ubuntu, and so on.

How much does Windows VPS cost?

Since Windows is a commercial OS you need to pay an additional price for a license. Not to mention that your Windows eats a consumable amount of hardware resources thanks to having GUI. Prices start from $39 for 2 CPU cores, 2GB RAM, and 30GB HDD and up to $184,5 for 4 CPU cores, 16GB RAM, 200GB SSD.
