Linux web site hosting is where a company places it
servers at an offsite secure data center to be managed
by another company. It is referred to as Linux web site
hosting because the operating system on these servers
is Linux.
Hosting
Providers
Linux
web site hosting is available from a wide spectrum of
hosting providers. At one end of the spectrum some Linux
web site hosting providers focus on low price with minimal
services while at the other end are Linux web site hosting
providers that offer a complete turn-key solution including
management and monitoring of the hardware and software.
What Linux web site hosting provider is right for you
will depend on whether you can tolerate downtime on
your servers and whether your internal IT resources
are best used maintaining the system or on high value
added tasks.
Benefits
For
most companies outsourcing their Linux web site hosting
needs is an economic decision as the hosting provider
supports multiple customers so they are less expensive
than doing it internally and they have the redundant
power, Internet and climate control capabilities to
prevent costly downtime. |
