With
the prices of web related services coming down day by day, many companies are
interested in making their own servers and try to maintain it on their own for
which these companies are investing more amounts towards its hardware resources
and human resources. These companies are installing dedicated servers and
hiring technical persons to look after it with its technical requirements like
software installation, hardware configurations and settings optimization for
better performance of their web applications.
Are these companies able to maintain
these servers without any issues on their own and why they prefer dedicated
servers?
Dedicated
servers give more feasibility in maintaining a web application with its
permissions to access roots of the server, install software, upgrading and
down grading the configurations etc. Bigger companies are always interested to
have servers configured and maintained on their own and which they do it by
investing time and amounts in arranging facilities for these servers to perform
well without any issues, but still many companies fail in achieving best of a
server’s performance post arranging all these facilities. A dedicated server
needs a highly trained technical person to maintain it by accessing its roots to
optimize the web applications that has been hosted on it and needs
uninterrupted power and internet supply to it which demand dedicated power
lines and internet lines to it which further increase the cost to the company.
How to overcome these challenges?
Companies
can overcome this challenge in three ways with the support of best hosting
service providing companies in the market. The primary solution is Co-location
service in which the companies which are maintaining the server on their own shift their server to the data center location of the service providing company where they give
continuous uninterrupted power supply, internet to the server and look after it
24x7 with service options like software installation, data backups, upgrading
or downgrading, maintaining uptimes etc. which reduces the cost to the company in
terms of its resources and maintenance activities.
The
second solutions is having the dedicated server configured with the service
providing company depending on the companies' requirement and accessing it
remote desktop connection to maintain the web application. The hosting company
will look after all kind of maintenance activities related to the server.
The
third solution is configuring a Cloud VPS Hosting server which performs
exactly like a dedicated servers and gives all kinds of root level access to
configure it to the user. These were cost effective and come with all features
of dedicated servers. These virtual private servers were configured over a
dedicated server with resources allocated to it for its exclusive usage from a
dedicated server using Hypervisor, software that creates virtual private servers
over a dedicated server, and companies can opt for Managed vps hosting in which
the users need not to worry about its maintenance as the service providing
company will look after it, users just need to make atmost usage of it to
optimize the web application hosted on it to perform well in the market.
