Choosing dedicated server


Why shouldn’t I choose dedicated server hosting?

Dedicated server hosting is powerful, yet expensive. If your site doesn’t require huge resources or third party applications to operate, you are probably not a candidate for dedicated hosting.

When do you need a Dedicated Server?

While simple, text-based sites are better suited for a shared server, enterprise-level web sites operate much more efficiently on a dedicated server because the dedicated hosting environment provides higher reliability, increased performance, greater security and exclusive use of system and network resources. Therefore, those sites that have high traffic, secure information, a high number of visitors or complex applications (i.e. e-commerce, dynamic content, database applications and multimedia applications) are better suited for a dedicated server.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Dedicated Server Hosting?

Dedicated hosting offers many enticing features such as:

 

• You do not have to purchase or maintain your own equipment.

• Better website performance due to dedicated machine(s).

• No chance of your website being affected by another website on the same box, as in shared hosting.

The most disconcerting factor of the Dedicated Server Hosting is the cost but alas, there are other disadvantages such as:

• The cost is generally much higher than shared hosting.

• The Web Hosting Provider charges hefty monthly fees as you’re paying not just for the physical hosting, but also for the hardware on which the site resides. While in the short run this is cheaper than the large capital outlay required to get co-location up and running, over time this model is more expensive.

• The server is the property of the service provider, which means all you own is the data you put on the server.

• Unlike co-location, you cannot simply pick up your server and walk away if you’re unhappy with the service.

Dedicated / Virtual Dedicated servers Admin access


Dedicated / Virtual Dedicated servers allow you to actually control your own server where you receive Admin access to install and run virtually anything YOU want on the server.

What u think?

Web hosting offers you limited control of how the server your web site is hosted on behaves. Normal hosting plans put many customers’ accounts on a single server and you upload your files to that Server. Dedicated / Virtual Dedicated servers allow you to actually control your own server where you receive Admin access to install and run virtually anything YOU want on the server. You can host multiple web sites on the one server account, and even sell hosting and host other sites on your server.

I have referred to Dedicated and Virtual Dedicated Servers. You may ask, what is the difference? Virtual dedicated servers are similar to Dedicated servers as they offer many of the same features, but at a much lower price.

With a virtual dedicated server, the customer shares the server space with a limited number of other customers using the same server box. Each virtual dedicated server is isolated from the other accounts giving the user full control of their own server. Virtual dedicated servers are useful for companies and individuals that run complex applications that need the bandwidth, consistent performance, and flexibility of a virtual dedicated server.

With a dedicated server, you actually lease a server box that is dedicated to only you and is set up to your preferences. The dedicated server customer has exclusive rights to the server’s bandwidth, memory and storage space. Also, a dedicated server account provides full control of any software installation on the server. Dedicated servers are useful for companies and individuals that run very-high-traffic Web sites or applications that need the bandwidth, versatility, and consistent performance of a dedicated box.

Dedicated / Virtual dedicated servers are an excellent choice to use for gaming sites, database management, shared hosting, and hosting of Web sites that receive high amounts of traffic.

Companies now offer your own customization of your Dedicated / Virtual Dedicated Server. This allows you the flexibility to choose one of their popular pre-packaged plans, or go wild and customize and configure your own virtual dedicated server by selecting your own options.

One bonus that can help you decide on where to get your server from is the support they offer, the value they give you when signing up and what system you will actually be running the server on. With support, the standard now is to be offered 24×7 email, telephone and Web-based tech support, as well as you having access to modify your server 24×7. Sometimes a free offering when purchasing the server is given. You should look for companies that offer Free and quick setup of the server, so you may be running in no time.

Extra Resources For Your Dedicated Server


Adding extra IPs

You receive a server with only one IP address. If it is allowed by the plan you signed up with, you can always send requests for additional IPs from your cp. To send a request for an extra range of IPs:

 

1. Go to the Dedicated Servers/Manage Servers menu

2. Choose the server you want to add IPs to

3. On the next page, click Add Extra IP(s)

4. Fill in the number of IPs you want to add.

Dedicated server backup

 Cpwebhosting.net use a complete bare metal recovery solution that allows us to recover our servers as well as those of our clients in less then 30 minutes from a completed server crash.

I think RAID1 is enough and never use any other form of backup. Even RAID5 would be better than RAID1, but both are prone to hackers defacing data. An actual backup somewhere else would allow you to restore data after a server compromise.

Advantages and the disadvantages between Colocation & Dedicated hosting


What are the advantages and the disadvantages between Colocation & Dedicated hosting in your opinion.which you like better and which to choose?

The difference in that a dedi is served by the host unlike the colo. And host pays the the employees of the datacenter for its serving (in case of breaking something). If something has broken in the colo you have to go to the datacenter and repair it yourself.

You choose colocation if you would like to have more flexibility in managing your server not only in terms of software but even in hardware. This is applicable if you would like to upgrade or attach peripherals to your server.

With colocation, you do own your hardware, but remember… that also means you will be responsible for any failures. If you rent a dedicated server, your provider will take care of any costs for you.

Colocation means you provide your own server and can configure it any way you want, but ultimately makes you responsible for your hardware and any failures. Also unless you pay for management you need to know how to run your own server and do things like backups and configurations of OS and things like that.

Unlike colocation, Dedicated servers are the responsibility of the hosting provider. They will usually manage the box for you and help with installations and reboots. They are also responsible for hardware failures.

Usually you are better off with a Dedicated Server or VPS unless you have vast experience and can manage your own server and it’s hardware.

Dedicated is renting a server, where the host provides all the hardware, connections to the net, and so on. Colo means you go out and buy a server and pay the colo provider to lease space in a rack in their data center, and hook your box up to the net.

Future of the dedicated servers market


Now mostly peoples purchase VPS’ instead of dedicated servers so What will be the future of the dedicated servers market.

Put your suggestion here.

 The resources are limited in a VPS as compared to a Dedicated server so for those who need more resources will definitely opt a dedicated server.

I don’t think that VPs will fully replace dedicated servers

I think Dedicated Servers are here to stay. Although isolated, with a VPS you are basically sharing the resources of a single dedicated server between all of the VPSs hosted on it.

I think VPS is a good option for the person not completely ready for the dedicated server

From studying hosting packages offered by a number of companies, I can figure out that VPS isn’t really popular, as the majority of hosts offer shared-reseller-dedicated plans

I think dedicated servers are here to stay, but as we all know they are getting more and more powerful and the market is FULL of people selling them, so its getting to the point where companies have to be creative to find a niche in the market.

VPS are cheaper then Dedicated server and gives you the features and functionality of a dedicated server.

 

I don’t think that VPs will fully replace dedicated servers because There will always be people looking for their own physical machine, versus having VPS…

 

There is a natural progression of resource requirements in hosting. Starting with shared hosting, VPS, then on to dedicated servers and capping at clusters. As a websites popularity grows it will inevitably require more CPU/RAM/Disk. Along with increased popularity comes the increased desire for the ever elusive 100% uptime which is only realistic with clusters.

Significance of Colocation Centre


Colocation saves both time and cost. There is Significant benefits of scale (large power and mechanical systems) result in large co-location facilities, typically 4500 to 9500 square metres (roughly 50000 to 100000 square feet).

With IT and communications facilities in safe, secure hands, telecommunications, internet, ASP and content providers, as well as enterprises, enjoy less latency and the freedom to focus on their core business.

Additionally, customers reduce their traffic back-haul costs and free up their internal networks for other uses. Moreover, by outsourcing network traffic to a colocation service provider with greater bandwidth capacity, web site access speeds should improve considerably.

Carrier hotel

 A colocation centre (collocation center) (“colo“) is also called as carrier hotel which is a type of data center where multiple customers locate network, server and storage gear and interconnect to a variety of telecommunications and other network service provider(s) with a minimum of cost and complexity.

Major types of colocation customers are:

* Major enterprises, who use the facility for disaster avoidance, offsite data backup and business continuity.

* Telecommunication companies, who use the facilities to interexchange traffic with other telecommunications companies and access to potential clients

* Web commerce companies, who use the facilities for a safe environment and cost-effective, redundant connections to the Internet

Best extension(s) best investing


My preference is

1. .com

2. .net

3 .org

4. .info

I think .ca names the best for investment percentage wise. You still register pretty good names that will bring you 300% percent guaranteed during next 2 years

I personally think that .IN (country code for India) has potential ,Reasons for my view? (1) wide use of English; (2) growing economy and large proportion of tech savvy; (3) clear rules on access to registration and selling by folks outside the country; and (4) nice, short, pronounceable extension.

.com is leading from all extension.

.com could never be replaced as it is branded as the default internet address extension around the world. If you are using another extension other then .com, no matter how much you spend on branding your address with your extension, you will still be loosing visitors if you do not have the .com version.

As a traffic collector/seller I dont care about .ext and I register any extension domains which can bring traffic/revenue. So some predictions about possible traffic/revenue a domain can give are more important for me than just investing in .ext itself.

.com is a good investment obviously.

After .com .cn and .in are also excellent investments considering their 1 billion+ populations each and the number of people using the internet in each of those countries is rising rapidly. I think .cc is one of the worst investments and the more extensions that come out the more it will decrease its value.

I find .com is the most valuable TLD. I think no one can really doubt that.

Is it better or not to get domain name separate from hosting company


Prevent yourself from any possible trouble and register the domain at a registrar separate from the web hosting company.

Never register your domain with your web host. It’s a bad idea!

most of the problems i read are usually because the users did not check to see if the domain name is actually registered to them instead of the hosting company. i was assured by the company i asked ( ixwebhosting ) that i have full control over my domain and would be listed as the owner so i assume shouldn’t be too difficult to transfer if i find their services lacking. please correct me if i’m wrong

Completely agree with actually owning your domain name, because if you ever have problems with the hosting company, you can always transfer your domain name. From personal experience I have lost a domain because of this.

My answer is yes! I learned it the hard way, with my site down for a whole week.

While sayng ALL hosts are “keeping your domain names” may be a bit exaggerated, there are DEFINITELY more than just a few HUNDRED horror stories. I have personally come across quite a number of situations myself switching hosts for my clients; many, including some well established hosting companies, are making transfers or even changing nameservers DIFFICULT, and you could guess the reason why

Having two different provider for Domain and Hosting is totally depends on the clients and the way in which he find himself comfortable, some prefer different providers and they cant give the whole control to one service provider, whereas some prefer single provider as it help them in resolving the technical issues. So its all upto you and your mode of working.

Current value of .biz and .info


I think .info and .biz have a good future. They are generally the next best top level domains after .com, .net, .org. Once those three are taken then the info and biz are next best if you want to promote worldwide, and they are usually shown in the results anywhere you reg domains, so they are visible. Or, you can also use your own country tld.

The value of .info is certainly going to rise in the near future there’s no doubt about it, while the value of .biz will rise as the availability of other TLDs for commercial purposes is declining but it may take a few more years

For information sites .info is obviously the one, there have been multiple $x,xxx sales although things seem to have dried up of late.

The .biz extension I do not see, for a start their is a .bz extension (Belize) and with the correct marketing that could take a lot of any potential traffic from the .biz suffix.

I think if anyone of you owns a lot of .biz and .info…domains… you should put some of them to use as developed websites. A developed website beats out any parking plan anyday…however the reason I’m saying this is …for example…

I read somewhere that only about 30% of .biz tlds are developed as proper websites as compared to about 80% of .com tld and also high figures for .net tld.

The current view is that .biz is a less desirable .tld and one of the reasons is people think its a speculative tld….and not mainstream… so there you go. Most people may not know it exists.

I personally don’t like the idea of using various cc tlds to make up words, like .es, .is, .se. I’d rather own those domains with good words in the language of the country. I mean, what is the market for a chopped up word in an extension most people aren’t familiar with? Sure, there’s a few exceptions but far from widespread use. If you are ragging names like that I would say it’s highly speculative.
