Data center is a term that is often heard these days. A data center is basically an advanced facility for housing sophisticated computers called servers, along with several other related equipment like networking and telecommunication devices, and so. Data centers are meant for securely storing the data of an organization. The data centers are also commonly used for the purpose of providing web-hosting. Data center services are availed by many medium and large scale enterprises these days. There are chiefly two kinds of servers through which web-hosting services are provided by the modern data centers, viz., dedicated servers and VPS servers. These kinds of hosting are called dedicated server hosting and VPS server hosting respectively. Both these hosting options are briefly explained below: Dedicated Server This server is a physical machine that provides internet support and operation for websites. As the name suggests, a dedicated server is dedicated to work for a single client at a time. The resources of a dedicated server are not used by anyone, except the organization or entity that is availing its service; that is to say, its resources are not shared. A dedicated server has several significant advantages, some of them are mentioned under: • The data storage space provided by this server is virtually unlimited; hence, it can conveniently accommodate increased data that comes as a result of business expansion. • A dedicated server eliminates the possibility of system downtimes that usually happen when a website experiences relatively large number of queries. • Dedicated server offers high flexibility as in it there is the option of customizing hardware equipment as well as software as per client’s requirement. • Dedicated server is the safest server at present and it provides total security against threats like hacking, data theft, data loss due to equipment failure, calamities, etc. Dedicated server hosting is a very expensive option, and this is the only drawback in it. But, if you see the overall performance and benefits that it provides, this option is not costly as it eliminates the possibility of any losses that might happen due to bad performance or system failure. VPS (Virtual Private Server) VPS server refers to a virtual machine that acts like a separate server. VPS is based on a technology that creates partitions on a machine in such a manner that each partition acts as an individual server. Every partition on the machine works independently of the other partitions; that is to say, the performance of a particular partition is not affected by the performance of other partitions on the machine. Each of these partitions is dedicated for a particular client. Nowadays, the VPS server hosting option is preferred by many firms. Here are some of the primary benefits of VPS: • VPS server hosting is quite inexpensive in comparison to dedicated server hosting. This is the most popular reason of the cheap VPS server service being availed by many firms. • User can make his own configuration or install the programs of his choice for his partition. • User can host several websites on his partition and can also add domains on his own. • In VPS hosting option the user can make high level of customization to his site. VPS server is of course economical when compared to a dedicated server, but its scope is limited. It is mostly suited for the requirements of small scale enterprises; medium and large scale enterprises generally require dedicated server services.
