Dedicated Hosting Description

Free and paid shared plans are one of the most famous website hosting products on the marketplace. They are okay for small-sized online portals that do not need a lot of resources and do not draw that many website visitors, but for high resource-swallowing online portals with many 1000's of web site visitors, a more advanced platform is necessary. If you are looking for a rock solid, cutting-edge web hosting platform that can tackle even millions of daily visits, a dedicated hosting is your most excellent choice.

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

With the dedicated hosting solution, you rent a whole web server whose system resources will be utilized only by your websites. Just as any PC, each dedicated hosting server has one or more CPUs operating at a given speed, a specific amount of RAM memory, one or more hard disk drives, etc. A web hosting server is in fact a computer with a hardware configuration meant to cope with high load and given software activated on it, like web server software, PHP and MySQL software platforms, etc., which permits the websites hosted on it to be visible online.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Services

A dedicated hosting server can be administered either by the web hosting supplier, or by the customer, on the basis of the given dedicated hosting package. In either case, the side handling the dedicated server has access to a software tool to reboot it at any moment. Management is done through a hosting CP tool that allows you to supervise the services running on the physical server.

OSs for Dedicated Hosting

There are different web server Operating Systems like Windows, FreeBSD, various Linux distributions, and so on. Some hosting service providers offer dedicated hosting running one given OS, whereas others offer clients a choice. MSSQL databases and .NET sites require a Windows web server, for instance, and will not function on a different Operating System, whereas PHP and HTML driven sites using MySQL databases will run on any Operating System. Prior to leasing a dedicated hosting server, discover what the web hosting supplier provides and what the necessities of your site are.

Software Platforms for Dedicated Hosting

By default, each dedicated hosting server comes with all the software applications needed in order to manage a site - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and so on), PHP software, an FTP server and so on, so once you get the dedicated web hosting server, you can upload your web site files and bring the site online. Most hosting companies offer full server root access, i.e. you can install any software platforms on the dedicated hosting server and alter any settings. Some script-driven software platforms need server-side applications that should be pre-installed in order for them to function. Various e-commerce scripts, for example, involve such a requirement, and being bestowed with full root access to the dedicated hosting server is critical for setting up a web storefront. Other web hosting corporations do not give root privileges, but help the client install the necessary software applications - this is the so-called managed hosting service, as differentiated from the unmanaged hosting solution, which offers root privileges.
