Preservation on a dedicated root server is provided through a combination of the most effective developments and solutions, including regular updates, firewalls, intrusion prevention options, and shield audits.
Dedicated root server
A dedicated root server is a type of physical server that each AlexHost client may use for personal purposes. The term “root” in this context indicates full administrative ingress to every segment of the server. Thus, you can freely manage its structure, install and configure the OS, manage applications, and control any components according to the project’s necessities. This server bids maximum pliability and robustness for interacting with any websites, services, and apps.
Dedicated root server and virtual: significant discrepancies
What are the differences between a dedicated root server and a regular virtual platform? Typically, the key differences involve more complete control over resources and the highest level of isolation. When working on a dedicated root server, you may individually manage all its resources without the mandate to share them with others, whereas virtual servers distribute resources evenly among various virtual machines, significantly reducing their efficiency.
High conduct also sets apart the root server hosting handed over by AlexHost. You benefit from complete isolation from neighbors and their resources, thus avoiding their influence. Such parameters are not characteristic of a regular virtual server.
Another distinguishing quality is the price tag. Root server hosting may cost slightly more than a virtual solution, but these expenses are fully justified by its efficiency and functionality.
Also, note the premium level of preservation. Your network infrastructure will be reliably protected largely due to the absence of the mandate to distribute resources among multiple clients.
In conclusion, such a server type is ideal for highly demanding and loaded projects. A root server is an excellent solution for any services and projects that mandate a reliable platform for development and promotion.
Root server hosting: technical traits
Dedicated root server hosting possesses a range of specific technical features. These include:
- A more powerful and efficient processor with multiple cores, ensuring top-notch processing even of large data sets. Its operating frequency ranges from several gigahertz to several terahertz.
- Ample data storage based on HDD or SSD with expandable options. Opt for 500 GB of space or even more substantial options for sure and solid storage of any information, including confidential data.
- Dedicated root server hosting hands over a significantly expanded RAM capacity (starting from 16 GB and more), allowing you to efficiently handle multiple applications and requests simultaneously.
- Networking capabilities. Such servers are equipped with high-speed network interfaces characterized by a bandwidth of 1-10 Gbit/s. In certain cases, AlexHost may bid even higher speed rates if your project demands it.
