Dislikes its high price, people still wanted to host their business websites on a dedicated server hosting . As it is one of the oldest hosting type it trustworthy and offers high-performance, enhanced security and freedom to administer your servers dedicated by your way.A virtual private server hosting generally runs its own copy of operating system with customers having super-user-level access. Above all, in virtual private server hosting, you can easily install almost any software that runs on the OS. At times, certain software does not run well in a virtualized environment. This includes firewalls, anti-virus clients, and even the virtualizers.Having said that, Arachno Net provide their virtual private servers, complete with raid disc mirroring, a secured /tmp directory, firewall and brute force detection system already installed.
The main advantages of a dedicated hosting server are the increase in resources (because you aren't sharing them with anyone) and the extra flexibility with regard to what you can install on the server and how you can utilize it as a resource. With shared servers the hosting company has to be a little bit more cautious with what they allow you to install. This is to protect the other people who have hosting accounts on the server. These restrictions don't exist with a dedicated server and as long as you're not doing anything illegal you won't be prevented from using the server however you see fit. As an example, I have several servers so I have them set up to act as backup servers for each other. Instead of having to back up onto the same server I have a remote backup for each one. I also run some custom scripts that require access to server utilities that wouldn't otherwise be available.
