Dedicated Server Plans Definition

Free and paid shared plans are one of the most widely used hosting products on the marketplace. They are good for small-sized sites that do not need plenty of resources and do not draw that many website visitors, but for resource-absorbing web sites with many 1000's of visitors, a more powerful solution is necessary. If you demand a rock solid, avant-garde shared hosting solution that can deal with even millions of daily hits, a dedicated server is your most appropriate alternative.

Handle the Intense Load Caused by Your Sites with a Dedicated Server

With the dedicated web hosting solution, you lease a whole web hosting server whose resources will be utilized solely by your websites. Just as any personal computer, each dedicated server has one or more CPUs operating at a specific speed, a certain amount of RAM, one or more hard disks, and so on. A dedicated hosting server is in fact a computer with hardware meant to handle high load and specific software installed on it, like a web server, PHP and MySQL software, etc., which allows the sites hosted on it to be available on the web.

Managed Dedicated Servers Hosting Services

A dedicated server can be managed either by the web hosting distributor, or by the client, depending on the specific dedicated server plan. In either situation, the side managing the machine has access to a software platform to reboot it at any given moment. Administration is carried out through a hosting CP GUI that permits you to keep track of the processes running on the web hosting server.

OSs for Dedicated Servers

There are different hosting server OSs such as Windows, FreeBSD, different Linux distributions, and so on. Specific hosting suppliers provide dedicated servers utilizing one particular OS, while others offer customers an alternative. MSSQL databases and .NET websites necessitate a Windows server, for instance, and will not perform on another Operating System, whereas PHP and HTML driven web sites using MySQL databases will function on any OS. Prior to leasing a dedicated server, find out what the web hosting firm provides and what the necessities of your website are.

Software Apps for Dedicated Servers

By default, each dedicated server offers all the software platforms needed to manage a website - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, etc.), PHP software, an FTP server and so on, so as soon as you obtain the web server, you can upload your web files and take the website online. Most web hosting vendors grant full server root privileges, in other words you can activate any software on the dedicated server and update any settings. Particular script-driven software platforms require server-side applications that should be pre-installed in order for them to function. Various shopping cart scripts, for instance, involve such a requirement, and having full server root access to the dedicated server is critical for having a web store. Other hosting vendors do not provide complete root-level access, but help the customer install the necessary software - this is the so-called managed web hosting service, as differentiated from the unmanaged web hosting solution, which comes with complete root access.
