    Yes, in general yes, you need a bit of technical knowledge as you are responsible for any installation/setup. However, how much really depends on what you want to do. If it is a simple web server, you can find a lot of useful guides that are specific to your Linux distro. There are one click install scripts that do most of the stuff for you.

    What are you looking to do on the VPS?

    1. Download Ubuntu Manual(~500 pages). Read the first 10 pages and you're all set! Although, for efficient administration, read full... (This is required for troubleshooting and deep stuff)

    2. For specific purposes like LAMP, cPanel and others, you'll find 1-click guides or detailed codes easily.

    3. Many things vary depending on the Linux Distros(OS). For Webservers, prefer CentOS stream and distros like Alma and Rocky. For Complex structurings like AI and ML, use Debian-based distros. In Debian based also, if you want frequent updates, choose Ubuntu and if you want stable things, choose Debian 10,11 because they release updates every 2-3 years only with fully secure setups.

    In total, the term "Technical Knowledge" vary as per the requirements... so, just let us know what you're looking to do!

    When you have preinstalled software, the process to get a VPS running is fairly easy.You do not need a whole lot of technical know-how to have things sorted. However, it would be a good idea to do a little research and have some basic knowledge about the servers before purchasing.

    VPS hosting services are semi-managed, which means that with some issues you’ll have to consult the knowledge base and tutorials, rather than receive help from our customer support.

    VPS hosting grants unmatched control of your experience. To use all the power provided effectively, you will have to have technical knowledge.
