What is a dedicated server?

A dedicated server hosting is a kind of web hosting in which you lease an entire server and host your websites on it. It means you won’t share this server with anyone but use it to host only your websites, unlike shared web hosting, in which you share a server with several other people to host your sites. In shared web hosting, many other sites are hosted on the server along with your websites, you might face many problems depending on the server resources usage of other people’s websites. In shared web hosting your websites might experience some downtime because of the excessive server resources usage of other people’s websites or vice versa. But since a dedicated server is dedicated to hosting only your websites, whatever happens to your websites is under your control. It means all of your sites are good and don’t use much system resources, all of your sites maintain a good uptime.

Also you have full control over your server, including your desired hardware, operating system, and many other features. Dedicated servers are usually put in data centers. Usually the servers are fully managed by the provider (like Hostgator dedicated servers). But it varies from provider to provider. The reason for this is each provider defines the phrase “Fully Managed” differently. To some providers it may mean Operating system updates, Load balancing, Application updates, Server monitoring, Simple Network Management Protocol hardware monitoring, Application monitoring, Firewall services, Antivirus updates, Technical support, Security audits, DDoS protection, Intrusion detection, Backups and restoration, Disaster recovery, Database administration, DNS hosting service, Performance tuning, Software installation and configuration, User management, Programming consultation and a few others. But to some other provider it may mean providing only a couple of the above services. It all depends on how they define the service.

Some of the server managed support are as follows, but remember even here the services may change from one service provider to another service provider: Fully Managed - Includes software updates, monitoring, reboots, security patches and operating system upgrades. Managed - Includes medium level of management, monitoring, updates, and a limited amount of support.Self Managed - Includes regular monitoring and some maintenance. Unmanaged - Little to no involvement from service provider. In the fully managed dedicated server service, the clients have to manage almost nothing. Almost all is managed by the service provider. In the managed dedicated server service, the clients will have to take care of a few things. In the self managed dedicated server service, the clients have to take care of the major part of managing their servers, there would be less support from the dedicated server provider. And finally, in the unmanaged dedicated server service, the provider manages almost nothing, except providing the server. If you are looking for a good dedicated server provider, click the banner below, go to their site and check what they have in store for you. They are one of the best in web hosting sector and in dedicated server providers sector.
