Web hosting is the activity
or service of providing storage space to individual, organizations. It is
mainly for the websites that are accessible via World Wide Web. Web hosting
also means internet hosting that enables businesses and individuals to make
their online presence in the form of a website, accessible to the public via
internet. Web hosting is
a huge industry, with close to a billion websites currently online and lot of people all over the world getting into this
new world.
Depending upon our web space
and bandwidth requirements, we can purchase the required hosting from three
basic types of hosting available. First one is the Shared
Hosting. Here multiple accounts are hosted on the same server and the
resources are also shared among them. Shared hosting is best for small
businesses, whose websites have low to moderate traffic and CPU needs.
In Dedicated Server,
the owner has the complete server and all the resources exclusively for
himself. The convenience and solitude makes it the costliest option in hosting.
These type of hosting is ideal for large enterprises and those organizations,
whose websites have heavy traffic and CPU needs.
In dedicated hosting, we
will have to pay more than any other type of hosting for availing server,
bandwidth and resources all by ourselves. In VPS hosting, virtualization technology
is used to partition a computer virtually into multiple servers. No physical partition
is there. Here in the virtual or software partition, each user is given much more
privacy and security as compared to the shared hosting.
VPS hosting also gives us
the freedom to install whatever we want on the server. We can try any new
programming language or deploy a custom Apache module. VPS have the root
access, we can make any changes using the remote desktop command line or remote
desktop. VPS hosting alsooffers many more advantages than shared hosting and
almost the same advantages as dedicated hosting. VPS hosting is less expensive than
dedicated hosting but more expensive than shared hosting. For more
