What Precisely is Dedicated Hosting?

[article_plan_box type=”dedicated”]

When we talk about web hosting servers, there are three principal sorts – web hosting servers, VPS (virtual servers) and dedicated hosting. Shared hosting web servers host lots of customers and thus the resources per account are limited, VPS hosting offer more configuration independence, but also affect other virtual private hosting servers on the hardware node if used rashly, and dedicated hosting servers offer you the freedom to carry out everything you please without messing with anyone else.

Why would you require a dedicated hosting servers?

Dedicated hosting servers are commonly much more high-priced than shared hosting web servers or Virtual Private Servers. Why would anyone, then, want to use them? The answer is pretty simple. If your firm has a busy site, or simply has very specific web server architecture requirements, the proper choice is a dedicated hosting servers. For somebody who is ready to invest in security and reliability, the higher price is of no importance. You get full root privileges and can utilize 100% of the dedicated hosting web server’s system resources without anyone else using these resources and messing with your online portals.

Hardware architectures

The majority of website hosting service providers, incl. us at [rp_store_info key=’store_title’], provide different hardware architectures you can pick from in keeping with your requirements. The hardware configurations offer different types of processors, a different number of cores, different RAM and hard disk sizes and different web traffic usage quotas. You can pick a hosting CP, which is a useful tool if you wish to utilize the dedicated hosting servers for website hosting purposes solely and choose not to use SSH for all the changes you will be making. We provide three sorts of web hosting CP software – Hepsia, DirectAdmin and cPanel.

The hosting CP of your choosing

If you are a self-confident Linux OS user (our dedicated hosting web servers are powered by Linux or other Unix-based OSs), you could administer your dedicated hosting through an SSH tunnel exclusively. That, though, could be awkward, particularly if you wish to give full server root access to somebody else who has less technical skills than yourself. That is why having web hosting CP software activated is an intelligent idea. The Hepsia web hosting CP software that we provide does not include full root-level access and is mostly appropriate for someone who maintains multiple web pages that demand lots of system resources, but would like to manage the web pages, databases and electronic mail addresses using a user-friendly web hosting Control Panel. The DirectAdmin and cPanel Control Panels, on the other hand, give you root access and include three access levels – root, reseller and user. If you intend to resell hosting packages instead of utilizing the dedicated hosting servers solely for yourself, you should select one of these two.

Web server monitoring and backup procedures

Last but not least, there is the matter of monitoring the dedicated hosting servers and of backing it up. In case of a problem with your dedicated hosting web server, like an unresponsive Apache or a network outage, it is advisable to have some kind of monitoring system enabled. Here at [rp_store_info key=’store_title’] the system administrators monitor all dedicated hosting servers for ping timeouts, and, if you order a Managed Services upgrade, they monitor the separate services on the dedicated hosting servers too. Backups are also an additional feature – the web hosting distributor offers you data backups on our own backup servers. You could select a kind of RAID that would allow you to keep the very same data on 2 server hard disks as a precaution in the event of a hard disk failure, or in case someone whom you have ranted root access deletes something accidentally.
