Dedicated Hosting Servers Defined

Free and paid shared packages are among the most famous website hosting products on the marketplace. They are appropriate for small-scale websites that do not require plenty of resources and do not attract that many viewers, but for heavy resource-swallowing websites with many 1000's of web site visitors, a more powerful solution is necessary. If you demand a stable, top-quality web hosting solution that can deal with even 1 000 000's of everyday visits, a dedicated hosting is your most suitable alternative.

Handle the Intense Load Generated by Your Web Sites with a Dedicated Hosting Server

With the dedicated server hosting solution, you rent a whole server whose system resources will be utilized solely by your websites. Just as any PC, each dedicated hosting server has one or more processing units running at a given speed, a particular amount of memory, one or more disk drives, etc. A server is actually a computer with a hardware configuration designed to handle intense load and given software activated on it, such as web server software, PHP and MySQL software, and so on, which permits the web sites accommodated on it to be visible on the World Wide Web.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Services

A dedicated hosting server can be managed either by the web hosting corporation, or by the customer, on the basis of the concrete dedicated hosting package. In either situation, the side managing the machine has access to a software platform to restart it at any given time. Administration is carried out via a hosting CP graphical user interface that allows you to keep track of the processes running on the server.

OSs for Dedicated Hosting

There are different server Operating Systems like Windows, FreeBSD, an array of Linux distributions, and so on. Some hosting providers offer dedicated hosting using one specific Operating System, whereas others give customers a choice. MSSQL databases and .NET web sites require a Windows web server, for instance, and will not work on a different Operating System, while PHP and HTML driven websites using MySQL databases will run on any OS. Before renting a dedicated hosting server, examine what the web host offers and what the needs of your site are.

Software Apps for Dedicated Hosting

By default, each dedicated hosting server offers all the software platforms required in order to manage a web site - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, etc.), PHP software, FTP server software and so on, so once you obtain the web hosting server, you can upload your files and get the website online. Most hosting companies grant root privileges, i.e. you can activate any software applications on the dedicated hosting server and modify any settings. Given script-driven platforms require server-side applications that should be pre-installed in order for them to run. Lots of e-commerce scripts, for instance, have such a requirement, and being provided with full root-level access to the dedicated hosting server is essential for establishing a web store. Other web hosting service providers do not grant full server root access, but help the client install the necessary software apps - this is the so-called managed web hosting solution, as differentiated from the unmanaged web hosting solution, which offers complete server root access.
