What is a dedicated server?

[L.N.Smith]

A dedicated server is very similar to a VPS, except that you get the full server. You get full root access and complete control over it. With a dedicated server, however, comes a lot of responsibility. You need to make sure that the server is fully secure. A managed server means that the company you are getting the dedicated server from will manage it for you, but the amount of management that you receive depends on the company. If you are interested in a managed server, you should ask the host ahead of time about the amount of management that they will provide. You can also outsource the management. There are numerous companies out there that you can outsource the management to. The one I've seen with the lowest price that has good reviews is FastServerManagement.com, which is priced at $29.99 a month for full management. I've also read some good things about Rack911.com, but they cost more. You can always manage it yourself, but if using a Linux server you will need a lot of Linux experience, or with a Windows server there are a lot of security flaws that need to be fixed. If managing it yourself, I recommend getting a security scan on your server done to ensure that it is fully secured. For the [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue ! important]hosting [COLOR=blue ! important]provider[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR], I recommend ThePlanet.com, a very large hosting company which owns 2 [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]datacenters[/COLOR][/COLOR] in Texas. They offer servers with a minimal amount of management starting at $199.99 a month (or sometimes more, when they're not on sale). They also have a cheaper product line of servers, starting at $99/month, at ServerMatrix.com. You may also want to look at Ev1Servers.net, which starts at $99 a month, or LayeredTech.com, which starts at around $60/month. You could always also do a Google search for "dedicated servers" and get lots of other results.

A Dedicated Server is a physical machine. That means you rent and own the hardware until you cancel your billing period.

With Dedicated Servers you have the power to do whatever you like. You can use them to host small-medium-big websites, Start a project with your team or even start your own Web Hosting or VPS hosting Company.

Most Dedicated Server providers will give you some guarantees like network uptime, hardware replacement tools like Remote Restart, Remote OS Reinstallation, Traffic Statistics etc.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing.

a dedicated server refers to the rental and exclusive use of a computer that includes a related software, Web server, and connection to the Internet, housed in the Web hosting service provider. A dedicated server is usually needed for a Web site that may develop a considerable amount of traffic - for example, a site that must handle up to 35 million hit

Re:

A dedicated server is a single computer in a network reserved for serving the needs of the network. For example, some networks require that one computer be set aside to manage communications between all the other computers. A dedicated server could also be a computer that manages printer resources. Note, however, that not all servers are dedicated. In some networks, it is possible for a computer to act as a server and perform other functions as well.

Re:

According to me a dedicated server is a server to which you are the only one that has access to the files, and you control the contents of the entire server. You are not sharing space with anyone else, nor can anyone else get to your data.

The best thing about a dedicated server is that it provides with a hosting enviornment that is only dedicated to one user. Therefore maximum efficiency can be ensured.
