Description of Dedicated Server Web Hosting
When we speak of hosting web servers, there are three main varieties - shared web hosting servers, VPS (Virtual Private Servers) and dedicated server web hosting. Shared servers accommodate lots of clients and so the resources per user account are limited, VPS web hosting give you more server configuration liberty, but also affect other virtual private web servers on the hardware node if used heedlessly, and dedicated web hosting servers offer you the chance to perform everything you think fit without intervening with anyone else.
Why would you require a dedicated web hosting servers?
Dedicated web hosting servers are traditionally much more expensive than shared web hosting servers or VPS web hosting servers. Why would anyone, then, want to use them? The explanation is rather simple. If your corporation has a large-scale online portal, or just has very exact server configuration requirements, the most logical option would be a dedicated web hosting servers. For someone who is ready to invest in safety and reliability, the bigger price is not a concern. You have full root privileges and can use 100 percent of the physical server's resources without anyone else availing of these resources and meddling with your online portals.
Hardware architectures
Most website hosting vendors, incl. us at , provide several hardware configurations you can pick from in keeping with your requirements. The hardware architectures include different kinds of microprocessors, a different number of cores, different RAM memory and disk drive sizes and different bandwidth usage quotas. You can choose a Control Panel, which is a useful user interface if you want to utilize the dedicated web hosting servers for web hosting purposes only and prefer not to resort to an SSH client for all the modifications you will be making. We offer three kinds of web hosting Control Panel software - Hepsia, DirectAdmin and cPanel.
The web hosting Control Panel of your choice
If you are a confident Linux OS user (our web servers are powered by Linux or other Unix-based Operating Systems), you could manage your dedicated server web hosting through an SSH client only. That, though, could be awkward, even more so if you choose to grant root privileges to someone else who has less technical knowledge than yourself. This is why having Control Panel software pre-installed is a smart idea. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel user interface that we provide does not include complete server root access and is mostly appropriate for somebody who owns numerous websites that demand a lot of resources, but desires to manage the sites, databases and mail addresses through a user-friendly hosting Control Panel. The DirectAdmin and cPanel hosting CPs, on the other hand, give you full root privileges and offer three access levels - root, reseller and user. If you plan to resell web hosting plans rather than utilizing the dedicated web hosting servers just for yourself, you should select one of these two.
Server monitoring and backup procedures
Last but not least, there is the matter of monitoring the dedicated web hosting servers and of backing it up. In the event of a predicament with your web hosting server, such as a non-responsive Apache or a network downtime, it is useful to have some kind of monitoring system activated. Here at the system administrators monitor all dedicated web hosting servers for ping timeouts, and, if you order a Managed Services upgrade, they monitor the separate services on the dedicated web hosting servers as well. Backups are also an extra feature - the web hosting services provider offers you data backups on our own backup web servers. You could pick a type of RAID that would permit you to keep the very same data on 2 server disk drives as a protective measure in case of a server hard drive failure, or in case someone whom you have ranted root privileges erases something accidentally.
