Dedicated Hosting Disclosed

When we speak of hosting servers, there are three principal varieties - shared hosting servers, VPS (virtual private hosting servers) and dedicated hosting. Shared web hosting servers accommodate multiple customers and therefore the resources per account are limited, VPS hosting offer more configuration independence, but also affect other private virtual hosting servers on the hardware node if utilized unwisely, and dedicated hosting servers offer you the freedom to carry out everything you please without messing with anyone else.

Why would you need a dedicated hosting servers?

Dedicated hosting servers are generally much more expensive than shared hosting servers or virtual web hosting servers. Why would anyone, then, want to use them? The answer is rather simple. If your firm has a high resource-devouring website, or simply has very special server setup requirements, the most appropriate option would be a dedicated hosting servers. For someone who is prepared to invest in safety and dependability, the higher price is not an issue. You gain full server root access and can use 100% of the dedicated hosting server's system resources without anyone else availing of these system resources and meddling with your sites.

Hardware specs

Most web hosting suppliers, including us at Azeer web hosting, provide different hardware configurations you can pick from in accordance with your demands. The hardware configurations include different sorts of microprocessors, a different number of cores, different RAM and server hard disk sizes and different web traffic allowances. You can select a web hosting Control Panel, which is a convenient interface if you want to utilize the dedicated hosting servers for hosting purposes solely and choose not to use a Secure Shell console for all the changes you will be making. We offer 3 types of web hosting Control Panel software - Hepsia, DirectAdmin and cPanel.

The hosting Control Panel of your choice

If you are a self-reliant Linux OS user (our web servers are running on Linux or other Unix-based Operating Systems), you could administer your dedicated hosting via a Secure Shell client only. That, though, could be inconvenient, even more so if you wish to give complete server root access to somebody else who has less technical skills than yourself. This is why having hosting CP software activated is a nice idea. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel software that we provide does not include root privileges and is chiefly suitable for someone who maintains plenty of web pages that absorb a lot of resources, but prefers to administer the online portals, databases and electronic mails through a user-friendly web hosting Control Panel. The DirectAdmin and cPanel web hosting Control Panels, on the other hand, grant full root-level access and offer 3 levels of access - root, reseller and user. If you intend to resell hosting packages instead of utilizing the dedicated hosting servers solely for yourself, you should choose one of these two.

Server monitoring and backup services

Last but not least, there is the matter of monitoring the dedicated hosting servers and of backing it up. In the event of a predicament with your dedicated server, such as an unresponsive Apache or a network downtime, it is good to have some kind of monitoring system enabled. Here at Azeer web hosting the system administrators monitor all dedicated hosting servers for ping timeouts, and, if you have a Managed Services package, they monitor the separate services on the dedicated hosting servers as well. Backups are also a bonus feature - the hosting distributor offers you data backups on our own backup servers. You could select a kind of RAID that would allow you to store the very same data on 2 disk drives as a precaution in the event of a server hard disk drive failure, or in case someone whom you have ranted complete root access erases something accidentally.
