What Does Dedicated Hosting Denote?

Free and paid shared packages are among the most extensively used website hosting solutions on the market. They are OK for small-size web sites that do not demand plenty of system resources and do not receive that many visitors, but for resource-swallowing web pages with many 1000's of viewers, a more powerful platform is demanded. If you require an advanced, top-quality web hosting platform that can deal with even 1 000 000's of everyday hits, a dedicated hosting is your perfect option.

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

With the dedicated service, you lease a whole web server whose resources will be used solely by your sites. Just as any computer, each dedicated hosting server has one or more processors running at a certain speed, a specific amount of RAM, one or more disk drives, and so on. A web hosting server is actually a computer with hardware designed to cope with heavy load and certain software installed on it, like a web server, PHP and MySQL software platforms, etc., which allows the web sites accommodated on it to be visible online.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Services

A dedicated hosting server can be administered either by the host, or by the client, based on the specific dedicated hosting package. In either instance, the party administering the web server has access to a software tool to reboot it at any given moment. Management is carried out via a hosting Control Panel graphical user interface that permits you to check the tasks running on the dedicated web server.

OSs for Dedicated Hosting

There are various web hosting server Operating Systems such as Windows, FreeBSD, various Linux distributions, etc. Some web hosting distributors offer dedicated hosting utilizing one particular Operating System, while others offer customers an alternative. MSSQL databases and .NET websites demand a Windows web server, for instance, and will not function on another Operating System, whereas PHP and HTML driven websites utilizing MySQL databases will run on any Operating System. Before leasing a dedicated hosting server, examine what the web hosting service provider provides and what the requirements of your site are.

Software Apps for Dedicated Hosting

By default, each dedicated hosting server includes all the software needed to administer a site - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, etc.), PHP software, FTP server software and so on, so once you get the web server, you can upload your web site files and bring the web site online. The majority of web hosting companies give full server root access, in other words you can install any software apps on the dedicated hosting server and change any settings. Particular script-powered platforms require server-side libraries that should be pre-installed in order for them to function. Different shopping cart scripts, for instance, have such a precondition, and being offered root-level access to the dedicated hosting server is crucial for launching a web store. Other web hosts do not give full server root privileges, but help the customer install the needed software - this is the so-called managed web hosting solution, as distinguished from the unmanaged web hosting solution, which includes root privileges.
