What is dedicated server?

[giftreegalo]

A dedicated server is exactly what it sounds like: a server dedicated entirely to your website and its needs. Unlike a shared server, all of the resources are yours alone and no other websites have access to them. This leads to increased speed, reliability and security. In addition, you have full control over how the server gets set up, including hardware configuration and custom software options.

Dedicated hosting simply implies that your website is hosted on its server to oneself. It has a lot of power and versatility, but it costs a lot of money. As a result, it's critical to conduct your homework before purchasing this type of coverage. Most websites, for example, begin with a shared hosting plan but quickly outgrow the limitations of that low-cost shared plan. You may want to consider upgrading to a virtual private server (VPS) or a dedicated server. It's up to you to analyze the proc and cons of each option.

Why would you need a dedicated server in the first place (4 main reasons)?

1. Your website is expanding and will need to be able to handle more traffic.
2. Your website's security is a concern.
3. You want your page loading times to be as quick as possible.
4. You value having complete control over your server.

There are two types of dedicated server, and these are managed dedicated server and unmanaged dedicated servers. It’s is important that you know the difference between the both servers. Unmanaged dedicated servers are best for clients that want to be in charge of all their own maintenance. Managed server is responsible for all the maintainers and backup that needs to be carried out. Managed server has a feature that is adaptable to the individual’s requirement. There is increased security and greater server access. Both unmanaged and managed server has operating system, web server and hardware. Unmanaged server gives also the flexibility for customization and comes with free reboots complete with root access.
