Supercharge Your MySQL Database
Increase the speed and reliability of your site by giving your MySQL database its own virtual private server.
Meet MySQL VPS
Your Dedicated Database
As our premium MySQL database service, DreamHost MySQL VPS uses an isolated Linux-VServer that has resources dedicated to your site.
Locked Up Tight
Standard MySQL servers share resources with other users, but with MySQL VPS, your databases and resources are protected from other users in the same way a private web server is.
Two ways to MySQL
Here are a few key differences between standard MySQL and MySQL VPS.
| Standard MySQL Server |
