Explanation of Dedicated Services

Free and paid shared packages are among the most famous web hosting solutions on the marketplace. They are okay for small-sized online portals that do not necessitate lots of system resources and do not receive that many visitors, but for high resource-swallowing websites with many thousands of visitors, a more powerful solution is required. If you desire a robust, no-holds-barred hosting platform that can deal with even millions of daily hits, a dedicated server is your finest choice.

Tackle the High Load Caused by Your Web Sites with a Dedicated Server

With the dedicated hosting solution, you rent an entire physical machine whose system resources will be utilized only by your websites. Just as any computer, each dedicated server has one or more processing units operating at a specific speed, a particular amount of RAM memory, one or more hard disk drives, and so on. A web hosting server is actually a computer with hardware aimed to cope with heavy load and specific software installed on it, such as a web server, PHP and MySQL software platforms, etc., which permits the sites stored on it to be reachable on the web.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Services

A dedicated server can be managed either by the hosting supplier, or by the client, on the basis of the given dedicated server plan. In either instance, the party managing the physical server has access to a software tool to reboot it at any particular time. Administration is carried out through a CP GUI that enables you to check the processes running on the physical server.

Operating Systems for Dedicated Servers

There are different hosting server OSs like Windows, FreeBSD, a variety of Linux distributions, and so on. Specific web hosting companies offer dedicated servers running one specific Operating System, while others give clients an alternative. MSSQL databases and .NET web sites request a Windows web server, for instance, and will not perform on a different OS, while PHP and HTML driven websites utilizing MySQL databases will perform on any Operating System. Prior to leasing a dedicated server, discover what the web host offers and what the necessities of your site are.

Software Apps for Dedicated Servers

By default, each dedicated server offers all the software apps required to run a web site - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, etc.), PHP software, an FTP server and so on, so as soon as you get the dedicated web server, you can upload your website files and bring the site online. Most web hosting companies grant full server root privileges, i.e. you can install any software applications on the dedicated server and alter any settings. Particular script-powered software platforms require server-side applications that should be pre-activated in order for them to work. A lot of shopping cart scripts, for example, include such a requirement, and gaining complete server root access to the dedicated server is key for establishing a web shop. Other hosting providers do not offer complete server root access, but help the customer activate the needed software applications - this is the so-called managed web hosting solution, as distinguished from the unmanaged hosting solution, which comes with complete root-level access.
