Web Server

• A web server is a server that is utilized in web
  hosting. Space on a web server is provided by a
  web hosting company through its different web
  hosting plans. This type of a server stores and
  processes the files of websites and then delivers
  those over the Internet to the browser that
  requests for the content of the websites.
• In web hosting, a web server can function as a
  shared server or as a dedicated server. It can be
  of some other type as well, such as Cloud server,
  VPS (Virtual Private Server), etc. For the
  purpose of this PPT, we will focus on a shared
  server and a dedicated server.

10
Shared Server

• A shared server is one of the types of various
  web servers. It is used in web hosting and is
  provided by a web hosting service provider. It
  can be a Linux Shared Server or a Windows Shared
  Server. In a shared server, the files of multiple
  websites are stored on a single server.
• Shared server offers shared server space and
  shared server resources to the sites that are
  hosted on the same shared web server. The users
  of a shared server are allotted space and
  resources on the shared server, based on their
  individual hosting plans.

11
Benefit of Using Shared Server

• The main benefit of Using a Shared Server is its
  availability at comparatively lower priced plans.
• Since server space is shared by multiple websites
  in a Shared Server, the price goes down for
  availing individual server space in the shared
  server environment of a Shared Server. That is
  why it is known as the most economical web
  hosting solution.

12
Disadvantages of Using Shared Server

• The main disadvantages of using a shared server
  are slow site loading speed, security concerns
  and limited server resource availability.
• These disadvantages stem from the fact that the
  same server resources and the same server space
  is shared among multiple websites.

13
The Ideal Users of Shared Server

• A shared server cannot provide dedicated server
  resources to any of the sites hosted on it. This
  is because it offers shared server space and
  server resources. Such a server caters to the
  hosting requirements of the following-
• Sites with less traffic
• Bloggers, small to medium-sized business sites
• Simple, small sites
• Sites with less budget for hosting

14
Dedicated Server

• A dedicated server is provided by a web hosting
  company to its customers for storing their
  websites files. It is one of the many types of
  web servers. In it, a single website is hosted on
  a single server and utilizes the resources of the
  entire server. Unlike a shared server, there is
  no sharing of server space or server resources in
  this type of a web server. Its examples are a
  Linux Dedicated Server and a Windows Dedicated
  Server.

15
Benefits of Using Dedicated Server

• A dedicated server provides dedicated server
  resources to the site that is hosted on it. This
  is due to the fact that a single server hosts a
  single site in a dedicated server. This results
  in the following benefits-
• Enhanced Site Speed
• Augmented Security
• Powerful Performance
• Dedicated Server Resource Availability
• Server Customization Flexibility
• Stable Hosting Solution

16
Disadvantages of Using Dedicated Server

• There are no disadvantages as such of using a
  Dedicated Server, except that it is available at
  a higher price than a shared server web hosting
  solution. This is due to the fact that an entire
  server is used by a single site and there is no
  sharing of server resources in it, among multiple
  sites. When a servers resources are shared, the
  individual price for availing server space
  automatically gets reduced. When that is not the
  case, as is the case in a dedicated server, then
  the price for availing the entire server remains
  comparatively higher.

17
The Ideal Users of Dedicated Server

• A dedicated server provides dedicated server
  resources to the site hosted on it by delivering
  dedicated server space and server resources. Such
  a server caters to the hosting requirements of
  the following-
• Online stores
• Enterprises
• Business critical applications
• Sites that need customization, enhanced security
  and speed
• Sites that get a lot of web traffic
