We spoke in a previous occasion on which are the keys to choose a good shared hosting service . Companies that want to be on the Internet with their own web usually choose this accommodation option. An alternative to this, however, are dedicated servers, that is, you do not rent scalable space, but infrastructure, hardware.
How does it differ from shared hosting? Simply, here you have the server with the features you have chosen (RAM, GHz, operating system, etc.) dedicated only to your projects, whereas typical hostings (Godaddy, 1and1, etc.) give you only a packet of Shared space.
Which of the two alternatives is best to use? As the needs of one customer and another are different, we will try to explain it as well as possible, since the price difference can be quite bulky and it is not always easy to make this decision.
Shared Hosting Vs. Dedicated hosting
A server is a computer that allows us to have enough space where we will host our website. Computers must have special features to be able to stay on for 24 hours a day and store a wide variety of pages. We therefore rely on the scalability and stability of the servers of the hosting company, so that decisions are subject to an external company.
There are good hosting companies and there are others that are constantly failing. Nobody is perfect. We can decide to rely on shared hosting, something that many SMBs do, or look for something more sophisticated, that is, have a server of our own.
That means you're renting the infrastructure, the whole server is for you alone. It can be a computer that is in London, in Munich or in Madrid. That server is working for you and you can put all the files of the company you need. If your space needs are very spacious, well because you're going to work with thousands and thousands of images or videos, or because you want to get high scalability in the cloud, the best is a cloud dedicated server .
However, there are also some intermediaries, since the maintenance of the server or servers you contract requires a job. Prices for this type of infrastructure are much higher than those shared hostings (which can salirte about 70 € a year, and even less) and, before hiring, you need to know if our project is worthwhile.
If we decide we do and are willing to bet on the quality, then we can decide to look for a good dedicated server . Many hosting companies also offer this service. Some businesses, however, will not want to outsource their servers for greater security and prefer to have the network in their own building.
In either case, it should analyze the pros and cons depending on the budget and the characteristics of the company and advise us well through our maintenance specialists because it is not professional to have a lot of infrastructure without adequate staff to maintain it .
And you, what do you prefer, shared hosting or dedicated hosting?
