Dedicated Server Hosting
In the Internet business world, a Web site is only as good as the server it's hosted on. Many high-profile businesses with technologically complex Web sites use ‘virtual servers’ only to find that they are cost effective, but fail to meet the needs of space, bandwidth, and customer access via hits.
A Dedicated Server allows for faster access to a given Web site, provides greater flexibility in building your Web sites, allows users to add applications and databases, as well as provides greater flexibility in remote root access administration. A Dedicated Server also offers more reliability. Since your Web pages are the only sites running on the Dedicated Server system, you won’t have to worry about sharing the bandwidth, disk space, and server resources (processor time, RAM, etc.) with other Web sites.
However, this luxury comes at a price. Dedicated Servers are expensive compared to their virtual “cousins”. Additionally, the user must have a solid working knowledge of the operating system selected and network administration, whether Windows NT, Digital UNIX, LINUX, or Solaris. Some companies, such as Superb Internet, offer affordable dedicated servers with options to add managed support services. Web Hosts that do this provide Web developers with options that lesson the drawbacks of dedicated server hosting.
