Dedicated Servers Web Hosting Description

When we talk about hosting servers, there are three principal categories - shared web hosting servers, VPS (virtual web servers) and dedicated server web hosting. Shared web servers host plenty of clients and thus the system resources per account are limited, VPS web hosting offer more server configuration independence, but also affect other virtual web hosting servers on the hardware node if used heedlessly, and dedicated web hosting servers give you the liberty to perform everything you desire without interfering with anyone else.

Why would you require a dedicated web hosting servers?

Dedicated web hosting servers are traditionally much more high-priced than shared web hosting servers or VPS web hosting servers. Why would anyone, then, want to use them? The explanation is pretty simple. If your company has a regularly visited web site, or simply has very exact server configuration requirements, the most intelligent option would be a dedicated web hosting servers. For someone who is inclined to invest in security and reliability, the bigger price is of no concern. You are bestowed with complete server root access and can use 100 percent of the dedicated server's resources without anyone else sharing these resources and meddling with your websites.

Hardware configurations

Most website hosting corporations, including us at Planet Concourse Hosting, offer several hardware configurations you can choose from in keeping with your necessities. The hardware architectures offer different varieties of microprocessors, a different number of cores, different RAM and disk drive sizes and different web traffic quotas. You can choose a web hosting CP, which is a handy interface if you want to use the dedicated web hosting servers for website hosting purposes solely and prefer not to resort to an SSH console for all the modifications you will be making. We offer 3 sorts of hosting CP software - Hepsia, DirectAdmin and cPanel.

The web hosting Control Panel of your choice

If you are a confident Linux OS user (our hosting servers are powered by Linux or other Unix-based OSs), you could manage your dedicated server web hosting through a Secure Shell terminal exclusively. That, however, could be inconvenient, particularly if you wish to give root-level access to someone else who has less technical experience than yourself. This is why having hosting CP software activated is an intelligent idea. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel tool that we offer does not include full root privileges and is mainly suitable for someone who runs a lot of websites that devour a lot of resources, but wishes to manage the web sites, databases and mailboxes via an easy-to-use web hosting CP. The DirectAdmin and cPanel hosting CPs, on the other hand, grant complete root access and offer 3 access levels - root, reseller and user. If you intend to resell hosting accounts rather than using the dedicated web hosting servers just 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 web hosting servers and of backing it up. In the event of a problem with your dedicated hosting web server, like an unresponsive Apache or a downtime, it is advisable to have some kind of monitoring platform enabled. Here at Planet Concourse Hosting the system administrators monitor all dedicated web hosting servers for ping timeouts, and, if you have a Managed Services package, they monitor the separate services on the dedicated web hosting servers as well. Backups are also a bonus option - the web hosting company offers you data backups on our own backup web servers. You could choose a type of RAID that would allow you to store the very same data on 2 disk drives as a protective measure in case of a server hard disk drive failure, or in case someone whom you have given root privileges deletes something by accident.
