What Precisely is Dedicated Hosting?

Free and paid shared packages are among the most extensively used hosting products on the market. They are applicable for small-size web portals that do not request a lot of resources and do not attract that many viewers, but for heavy resource-absorbing sites with many 1000's of visitors, a more powerful solution is necessary. If you are searching for a powerful, leading-edge web hosting platform that can deal with even millions of daily visits, a dedicated hosting is your best option.

Tackle the Intense Load Created by Your Web Sites with a Dedicated Hosting Server

With the dedicated server hosting service, you lease a whole machine whose resources will be used solely by your sites. Just as any computer, each dedicated hosting server has one or more central processing units operating at a particular speed, a certain amount of RAM, one or more hard drives, etc. A dedicated hosting server is in fact a computer with a hardware configuration meant to cope with heavy load and specific software installed on it, like web server software, PHP and MySQL software, and so on, which allows the sites accommodated on it to be reachable online.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Solutions

A dedicated hosting server can be managed either by the web hosting provider, or by the client, on the basis of the specific dedicated hosting plan. In either instance, the party administering the server has access to a software tool to restart it at any time. Management is done through a web hosting Control Panel tool that permits you to check the tasks running on the hosting server.

OSs for Dedicated Hosting

There are different web server Operating Systems like Windows, FreeBSD, a number of Linux distributions, and so on. Given providers provide dedicated hosting using one particular Operating System, whereas others offer clients a choice. MSSQL databases and .NET web sites necessitate a Windows server, for instance, and will not function on another Operating System, whereas PHP and HTML based web sites using MySQL databases will run on any OS. Prior to renting a dedicated hosting server, discover what the web host provides and what the needs of your website are.

Software Apps for Dedicated Hosting

By default, each dedicated hosting server offers all the software applications needed in order to administer a website - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and so on), PHP software, FTP server software and so on, so as soon as you obtain the dedicated server, you can upload your web files and get the web site online. The majority of web hosting distributors give complete server root access, in other words you can install any software apps on the dedicated hosting server and modify any settings. Particular script-based software platforms need server-side libraries that should be pre-installed in order for them to function. A lot of shopping cart scripts, for instance, impose such a precondition, and being provided with complete root-level access to the dedicated hosting server is vital for having an online shop. Other web hosting providers do not offer full server root access, but help the customer activate the needed software applications - this is the so-called managed hosting solution, as differentiated from the unmanaged web hosting solution, which comes with root access.
