Web hosting\u00a0is a service for hosting websites on specialized servers and providing access to them via the Internet.\u00a0Companies providing web hosting services (\u00a0hosting providers\u00a0) allocate space on their own or rental servers and provide the necessary width of the Internet channel.\u00a0Companies can also provide the service of accommodation servers of other companies in their data centers: the so-called co-location service or\u00a0Colocation.\u00a0It is often called one of the subspecies of hosting, and sometimes it is distinguished as a separate type of service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hosting capabilities may vary significantly.\u00a0The simplest type of hosting is the placement of single-page websites downloaded via the FTP protocol (File Transfer Protocol) or the web interface, and the files are usually stored on the server without changes.\u00a0Many Internet service providers provide this service for free to their customers.\u00a0Hosting personal sites usually costs quite cheaply or even free of charge (often subject to the display of advertising on the site).\u00a0Hosting commercial sites is usually more expensive.\u00a0Personal sites are usually a single page,\u00a0large websites or Internet portals require a whole range of additional services, in particular, database hosting services and development platforms (such as PHP, Python, Java, and others) necessary for installing the software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hosting provider can also provide a control panel for managing the website and web server, as well as for installing the necessary web services, such as an electronic mailbox.\u00a0A number of companies specialize in certain types of hosting, such as e-commerce.\u00a0Large companies usually use their services, hiring hosting companies to perform work related to the technical side of working with the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Uptime\u00a0(Uptime) host – the percentage of time he was in working order.\u00a0Many hosting providers claim that they provide uptime of at least 99.9% (this approximately corresponds to less than 2 minutes of lack of access per day or no more than 45 minutes per month), but this is not always meant as a percentage of real-time.\u00a0Some hosting providers, in order to attract more customers, indicate the time of hosting availability as a percentage of the server\u2019s operating time, which leads to a significant overestimation of the result compared to the observed uptime.\u00a0Few hosting providers take into account uptime when determining the cost of their services, but some still reduce the fee if the inadvertent decrease in uptime below a certain threshold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Usually provided with a significantly limited range of services compared to paid hosting.\u00a0The service of such a hosting is often compensated by showing on advertising sites. Shared hosting- A website is hosted on a single server at the same time as many other sites: from a few hundred to several thousand.\u00a0Typically, all these sites equally have access to the processor\u2019s working time, RAM, and a fairly wide range of additional services.\u00a0Shared hosting services are often provided by intermediary companies between customers, site owners and data centers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shares server resources in such a way that they do not explicitly depend on what kind of hardware they provide.\u00a0VPS can be implemented by means of one or several servers.\u00a0Such virtualization makes it relatively easy to move a virtual server from one physical server to another.\u00a0Users of a virtual dedicated server can have superuser access within their virtual space, while users themselves must maintain the server in working conditions, in particular, provide updates to the server software. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
the user gets to use his own web server and fully controls it (superuser access in the Linux operating system or Windows administrator), however, the user is usually not the owner of the server.\u00a0A variety of dedicated server is the so-called\u00a0unmanaged\u00a0server (Unmanaged server), it is the most inexpensive dedicated server.\u00a0The user has full administrative access, which implies the responsibility of the user for the security and technical support of the server. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
the user is provided with his own server, but he does not get full access to his management.\u00a0The basic configuration and basic technical support of the server are undertaken by the hosting provider, which is partly a means of protecting the server from inadvertent disruption of the server by the user. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
a service similar to the service of providing a dedicated server.\u00a0The hosting provider provides the physical space for hosting the server and provides its maintenance.\u00a0This type of hosting gives the greatest opportunities and at the same time is the most expensive.\u00a0In most cases, the provider provides a minimum set of server maintenance services, which is limited to providing electrical power, Internet access and organizing the server location.\u00a0In most cases, the client needs to visit the data center independently if it is necessary to make any changes to the server hardware. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A new type of hosting that provides the client with easily scalable hosting resources, based on the cluster distribution of the load on server equipment and payment for the actual use of resources. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A multiserver type of hosting designed for more efficient use of resources.\u00a0Cluster servers are an almost perfect solution for fault-tolerant and scalable hosting.\u00a0Typically, hosting providers use cluster hosting to provide virtual hosting, as this provides significant convenience when performing bulk customer service operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is a type of distributed hosting when server clusters operate as a network consisting of many nodes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Usually, a single computer located in a private house or apartment, providing hosting for one or more websites using a normal broadband Internet connection.\u00a0It can be specially assembled computers or most often just old computers.\u00a0Some ISPs block home servers by blocking incoming requests on the 80th TCP port or by refusing to provide a static IP address.\u00a0The usual workaround is to use dynamic DNS, which automatically changes the IP address the URL points to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Large data centers provide the opportunity to resell hosting services, allowing their customers to become hosting providers themselves.\u00a0Intermediary companies, in turn, can provide hosting services to other smaller customers.\u00a0The number of resources available to different intermediary companies can vary greatly: they can have their own dedicated virtual servers or colocation.\u00a0Many intermediary companies provide almost the same range of services as their own hosting provider, but at the same time provide their own technical support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Web hosting is often provided as part of the usual set of Internet service providers.\u00a0The user first needs to evaluate the amount of resources that the site will consume.\u00a0In particular, the need for a database, software for implementing scripting languages, and the required operating system should be determined.\u00a0Most hosting providers use a wide range of software on their Linux servers.\u00a0The usual configuration for a Linux server is the LAMP platform: Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP \/ Perl \/ Python.\u00a0Web hosting customers may also need other services: email, multimedia service databases, etc.\u00a0Web hosting packages often include site content management systems so as not to burden the user with technical aspects of the service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
