What Indeed are Dedicated Hosting Servers?

Free and paid shared plans are among the most famous website hosting products on the market. They are applicable for small-size web portals that do not necessitate plenty of resources and do not receive that many visitors, but for heavy resource-consuming online portals with many 1000's of web site visitors, a more powerful platform is necessary. If you are looking for a reliable, no-holds-barred shared hosting solution that can deal with even millions of everyday hits, a dedicated hosting is your most excellent choice.

Tackle the Intense Load Generated by Your Websites with a Dedicated Hosting Server

With the dedicated server hosting solution, you rent an entire physical machine whose system resources will be used solely by your sites. Just like any computer, each dedicated hosting server has one or more processing units functioning at a given speed, a certain amount of RAM memory, one or more disk drives, and so on. A hosting server is indeed a computer with a hardware configuration intended to handle heavy load and certain software installed on it, such as web server software, PHP and MySQL software platforms, and so on, which permits the websites stored on it to be visible on the World Wide Web.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Services

A dedicated hosting server can be administered either by the web hosting supplier, or by the client, based on the particular dedicated hosting plan. In either instance, the party administering the dedicated machine has access to a software platform to reboot it at any specific moment. Management is done through a Control Panel graphical interface that allows you to monitor the tasks running on the dedicated hosting server.

OSs for Dedicated Hosting

There are different web hosting server OSs such as Windows, FreeBSD, an array of Linux distributions, etc. Given web hosting distributors provide dedicated hosting running one given OS, while others give customers a choice. MSSQL databases and .NET websites demand a Windows web server, for example, and will not perform on a different OS, while PHP and HTML based websites utilizing MySQL databases will run on any OS. Prior to leasing a dedicated hosting server, find out what the hosting provider provides and what the requirements of your web site are.

Software Applications for Dedicated Hosting

By default, each dedicated hosting server offers all the software needed to administer a web site - a web server, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and so on), PHP software, an FTP server and so on, so once you get the web server, you can upload your web files and bring the web site online. The majority of web hosting firms give root privileges, i.e. you can install any software platforms on the dedicated hosting server and revise any settings. Given script-driven software platforms need server-side libraries that should be pre-activated in order for them to work. Various e-commerce scripts, for example, include such a requirement, and being provided with complete root access to the dedicated hosting server is essential for building an online store. Other hosting service providers do not offer full root access, but help the customer activate the required software platforms - this is the so-called managed hosting solution, as compared to the unmanaged hosting solution, which offers full server root privileges.
