Free and paid shared plans are one of the most commonly used web hosting solutions on the market. They are suitable for small-size online portals that do not require lots of resources and do not get that many visitors, but for high resource-swallowing online portals with many 1000's of visitors, a more advanced platform is needed. If you are seeking a robust, cutting-edge shared hosting platform that can deal with even millions of daily visits, a dedicated server is your best option.

Tackle the Load Caused by Your Sites with a Dedicated Server

With the dedicated solution, you rent an entire hosting server whose system resources will be utilized solely by your websites. Just as any PC, each dedicated server has one or more microprocessors functioning at a particular speed, a specific amount of RAM, one or more hard disks, etc. A web server is actually a computer with hardware meant to cope with intense load and certain software activated on it, like a web server, PHP and MySQL software platforms, etc., which permits the web sites hosted on it to be visible on the Internet.

Managed Dedicated Hosting Services

A dedicated server can be administered either by the web host, or by the client, on the basis of the given dedicated server plan. In either instance, the party handling the web server has access to a software tool to reboot it at any given time. Administration is done via a hosting CP tool that permits you to keep track of the services running on the machine.

OSs for Dedicated Servers

There are various web hosting server OSs like Windows, FreeBSD, a number of Linux distributions, and so on. Particular hosting service providers provide dedicated servers using one specific Operating System, whereas others give customers an option. MSSQL databases and .NET websites need a Windows web server, for example, and will not operate on another Operating System, while PHP and HTML driven sites using MySQL databases will operate on any Operating System. Before leasing a dedicated server, discover what the hosting distributor offers and what the requirements of your website are.

Software Platforms for Dedicated Servers

By default, each dedicated server comes with all the software required to run a website - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and so on), PHP software, FTP server software and so on, so once you get the dedicated server, you can upload your files and get the site online. Most web hosting firms provide complete root-level access, i.e. you can activate any software on the dedicated server and modify any settings. Certain script-based platforms need server-side apps that should be pre-installed in order for them to work. Different e-commerce software scripts, for example, impose such a requirement, and being granted complete root access to the dedicated server is vital for launching a web storefront. Other hosting companies do not grant complete root access, but help the customer activate the needed software platforms - this is the so-called managed web hosting solution, as compared to the unmanaged web hosting solution, which includes root-level access.
