Isolated vs. Shared Environment Type

In short, Shared hosting is the old way to host websites, as you share one server and resources with multiple other websites.
Given that it is ‘shared’, one or more of those other websites can cause the whole server to crash, along with your website.

Starburst’s Isolated hosting plans, on the other hand, are basically Managed Micro VPS plans, that provide greater performance with no noisy neighbor’s that can crash the server.
