More Reliability than Shared web hosting
The most common type of web hosting offered by hosting
companies is shared web
hosting. This type of hosting is typically adequate for
small-scale commerce and marketing-only websites. As your
website becomes a significant income source that drives your
business, you need the reliability of your own web server 100%
dedicated to your website and your website only. Shared
web hosting--shares the resources of the server. Shared
memory, shared processor time can lead to less application and
server stability and availability. The advantage of dedicated server
hosting is that your website has access and uses the entire CPU,
memory, and the entire disk drive. With a dedicated
server, dedicated to your website and your website only, you
will see an appreciable increase in performance and reliability.
In fact, our dedicated server options comes with an SLA (Service
Level Agreement) that guarantees the operation of your server or
provides credits in cases where we do not meet those objectives.
Self-managed or Managed?
With Dedicated server hosting, you may choose to self-manage
your server or have ComCity manage it. If you choose to manage
it, then you are responsible for all the day-to-day server
administration tasks. We setup the server for and make
sure its "warm" and never goes "cold". You are responsible
for everything beyond that. If the server goes down, we
recover it for you. If you need server administration
beyond that, you may purchase it at an hourly basis.
Managed Hosting
You may also choose for ComCity to manage it for a
small monthly fee. If we manage the server for you, we provide
additional free software including a control panel that allows
you to manage many aspects of your web site(s). We are on
call for complex and routine server administration tasks.
This provides you the best of both worlds...giving you the ease
of shared web hosting with the scaleability of your own web
server.
