The importance of presence on the internet is realized by entrepreneurs as well as individuals. Website is a portal that can be used to exchange information and services as well as sell and advertise our own products whether it is a personal  blog / website or a fortune 500 company. Web hosting is simply the way a website is hosted on the Internet, and depending on the scope of the website, there are a variety of plans available as per your requirements.

Choosing between a dedicated web hosting plan and a shared web hosting plan comes down to the needs of a website. If a business or individual wants to take a hands off approach and does not need to manage the website themselves, a shared web hosting plan should be adequate. While dedicated web hosting plan is appropriate for more sophisticated websites that get a lot of traffic and need secure server space for e-commerce and customer transactions.

The basic two web hosting options available are Shared Hosting and Dedicated Server Hosting. They offer many of the same features like domain registration and unlimited emails. Often, it is the size of the website and the applications you want to run on server will determine whether a shared hosting plan or a dedicated hosting plan is more appropriate. You can have option for windows hosting or linux hosting in shared as well as dedicated hosting. It will depend on the script of your website.

Shared Hosting is ideal for individuals and businesses that want the hosting company to manage and maintain the server. In shared hosting you get a cost efficient hosting option where your website shares space on a server with other websites owners. The web hosting provider owns the server and resale the space to other websites. Shared hosting offers businesses and individuals an cheap web hosting option that can support unlimited emails but provides limited customization capabilities.

With Dedicated web hosting package where you get more control and flexibility over the server. Website hosted on a dedicated server does not share web space with any other websites. Dedicated web hosting offers more storage and bandwidth and is ideal for e-commerce websites that get a lot of heavy traffic. With a dedicated server, your website won’t slow down in functionality when a lot of users migrate to the site. Because it has larger storage capabilities, companies can place their customized software and scripts on the server and manage their content and make software changes more frequently.

Do you setup server mirroring ?

Mirrored servers used to avoid any downtime for your dedicated server. We provide mirrored servers solution to our clients by configuring 2 similar servers. We setup servers in 2 different racks out of which one server is the master server and other is slave server. Once you setup a mirrored dedicated server in case, the master server fails then the slave server can immediately take its place without any downtime. We use FAM and RSYNC modules for server mirroring.

What is Failover Process ?
In failover process if the master server goes down then slave server immediately get activated for accepting users or application requests. Failover help to avoid any downtime so your server application runs smoothly.

What is restoration process ?
Restoration process involves copying the up-to-date data from the slave server back to the original location which is the master server. It requires selection of source target and appropriate replication set. Restoration process take place after the Failover to move all recent updated data to master server when its ready to use.
