What are the difference between managed and unmanaged vps hosting?

With managed vps hosting the hosting provider gives full technical support to manage the installations, upgrades and patches for your VPS.

With unmanaged vps hosting services, taking care of all the above factors is up to you. The hosting provider gives minimal technical support for your vps.

Some applications require that certain ports and/or protocols be opened or closed in the firewall. With Shared hosting, custom firewall configurations are not advisable for security reasons. Under the VPS, custom firewall configurations are feasible because of the partioning between customers. With a VPS, you can close ports using the IPTables feature.
