Dedicated Web Hosting Explanation

Free and paid shared packages are one of the most widespread web hosting products on the marketplace. They are excellent for small-size web pages that do not require lots of system resources and do not attract that many visitors, but for huge web portals with many 1000's of website visitors, a more advanced solution is needed. If you require a robust, top-class website hosting platform that can deal with even 1 000 000's of everyday visits, a dedicated web hosting is your finest choice.

Handle the High Load Created by Your Sites with a Dedicated Web Hosting Server

With the dedicated web server hosting solution, you lease an entire server whose resources will be used only by your web sites. Just like any personal computer, each dedicated web hosting server has one or more processing units running at a specific speed, a given amount of memory, one or more hard disks, etc. A hosting server is in fact a computer with hardware meant to tackle intense load and given software installed on it, like web server software, PHP and MySQL software platforms, etc., which permits the sites accommodated on it to be reachable on the World Wide Web.

Managed Dedicated Web Hosting Services

A dedicated web hosting server can be managed either by the web hosting company, or by the customer, on the basis of the specific dedicated web hosting plan. In either instance, the side handling the server has access to a software tool to reboot it at any specific time. Administration is done through a hosting Control Panel graphical interface that enables you to keep track of the services running on the dedicated web hosting server.

OSs for Dedicated Web Hosting

There are various web server OSs such as Windows, FreeBSD, a variety of Linux distributions, etc. Some hosting providers offer dedicated web hosting using one particular Operating System, while others give clients a choice. MSSQL databases and .NET websites request a Windows web server, for example, and will not operate on another Operating System, whereas PHP and HTML driven sites using MySQL databases will work on any Operating System. Prior to leasing a dedicated web hosting server, learn what the web hosting corporation provides and what the necessities of your web site are.

Software Platforms for Dedicated Web Hosting

By default, each dedicated web hosting server offers all the software needed in order to manage a website - a web server, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and so on), PHP software, FTP server software and so on, so once you obtain the web hosting server, you can upload your website files and get the website online. Most hosting distributors provide root privileges, in other words you can activate any software on the dedicated web hosting server and update any settings. Specific script-powered platforms need server-side apps that should be pre-installed in order for them to function. Different shopping cart software scripts, for example, have such a precondition, and being granted full root-level access to the dedicated web hosting server is essential for establishing a web storefront. Other hosting providers do not grant full root privileges, but help the customer install the needed software platforms - this is the so-called managed hosting service, as distinguished from the unmanaged hosting solution, which comes with full server root privileges.
