Dedicated Hosting Unveiled

Free and paid shared plans are among the most famous web hosting solutions on the market. They are excellent for small-scale websites that do not need a lot of resources and do not get that many viewers, but for busy web sites with many 1000's of website visitors, a more advanced platform is needed. If you are looking for a solid, top-quality web hosting platform that can deal with even millions of everyday visits, a dedicated hosting is your finest choice.

Tackle the Intense Load Created by Your Web Sites with a Dedicated Hosting Server

With the dedicated server web hosting solution, you rent an entire physical server whose resources will be utilized solely by your websites. Just as any PC, each dedicated hosting server has one or more microprocessors functioning at a certain speed, a given amount of RAM, one or more hard disks, etc. A dedicated hosting server is in fact a computer with a hardware configuration designed to cope with intense load and certain software installed on it, like web server software, PHP and MySQL software, and so on, which allows the sites stored on it to be available on the Internet.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Solutions

A dedicated hosting server can be administered either by the hosting service provider, or by the customer, on the basis of the given dedicated hosting package. In either situation, the side administering the dedicated hosting server has access to a software tool to reboot it at any particular time. Management is carried out via a hosting Control Panel user interface that allows you to supervise the tasks running on the dedicated machine.

OSs for Dedicated Hosting

There are different web hosting server OSs like Windows, FreeBSD, an array of Linux distributions, etc. Specific hosts provide dedicated hosting running one given Operating System, while others give customers an option. MSSQL databases and .NET sites necessitate a Windows server, for example, and will not work on a different Operating System, while PHP and HTML based websites using MySQL databases will operate on any OS. Prior to leasing a dedicated hosting server, discover what the web hosting corporation provides and what the needs of your web site are.

Software Apps for Dedicated Hosting

By default, each dedicated hosting server offers all the software applications needed to administer a web site - a web server, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and so on), PHP software, FTP server software and so on, so the moment you obtain the dedicated web server, you can upload your website files and bring the site online. The majority of web hosting service providers offer root privileges, i.e. you can install any software platforms on the dedicated hosting server and modify any settings. Certain script-driven software platforms need server-side applications that should be pre-activated in order for them to perform. Various e-commerce scripts, for example, have such a requirement, and receiving root access to the dedicated hosting server is critical for launching a web store. Other hosting providers do not give complete root-level access, but help the client install the required software - this is the so-called managed hosting service, as distinguished from the unmanaged hosting service, which includes full root-level access.
