Providers). Some alternative providers are there that offer webpage hosting to organizations and
individuals. Usually personal site hosting is inexpensive, free, or advertisement-sponsored. On the
other hand, hosting business websites is much expensive.
If it is a personal website then single page hosting will be sufficient. Complex sites require
comprehensive packages that offer application development platform and database support. The
application development platform can be Ruby on Rails, Asp.Net, PHP, Java, or ColdFusion. With
these facilities, customers can install or write script for apps like content management and forums.
The web host services will provide control panel or interface to manage scripts installation and web
server installation along with different service applications and modules like emails. There are many
hosts that specialize in particular softwares or applications like e-commerce that are used by large
organizations for outsourcing network infrastructure.
Availability of a particular wbsite can be calculated as percentage of year in which it was made
publicly reachable and accessible via internet. Uptime means system being online itself and it does
not consider whether the weebsite is reachable or not. There are different types of hosting offered by
different service providers. There are many large scale organizations that dont want internet service
providers but they have to connected to the internet permanently for sending files, emails, etc. To
different sites. Such companies make use of computer for hosting website and to offer information
about their services, products, and facilities for getting orders online.
Given below are different types of web host services:
No cost web hosting service- The companies that provide this service have limited features to offer.
They sometimes are supported by promotions. Moreover, the services given by them are very less as
compared to those offered under paid-hosting plan.
Shared website hosting service: Here, all domains will share common server resources pool like CPU
and RAM. The features are very basic and not very flexible when updates and software are
concerned.

work for individual domains within any combinations given in the listed hosting types and depending
on which reseller they are affiliated to. The size of resellers account can tremendously vary and they

2. can have virtually dedicated servers of their own.
Virtual dedicated server: This service is also called Virtual Private Server that divides the server
resources to several virtual servers and resources can be assigned in a manner that they dont reflect
underlying hardware directly. Root access is given to users for their virtual space only. Server
maintenance and patching is sometimes the responsibility of the customers.
Dedicated hosting services: Here the user will get their own web servers as well as complete control
over it. This does not mean that users own the server. An example of this type of hosting service is
unmanaged or Self-Managed. This service is not very expensive for those who use dedicated plans.
It will give complete administrative access of the server to the user which means that the client will be
responsible for maintenance and security of their dedicated servers.
Managed hosting services: Here, the users are granted their own servers but complete control is not
provided. They can manage data through FTP as well as remote management tools. The reason why
users are not allowed full control is that providers get an opportunity to provide maximum quality by
not permitting users to change the server or create any configuration problem potentially. In other
words, the server is not owned by the user.
Colocation: Website hosting Service-: Here the user is allowed to own colo server and this service is
similar to the service provided by dedicated website hosting server. The hosting company will offer
physical space which can be taken by the server as well as taken care of by the server. It is one of
the most expensive and powerful web hosting services available till today.
Cloud hosting: This is the latest hosting platform which permits clients reliable, scalable and powerful
hosting that is based on utility billing and load-balanced clustered servers. Cloud hosting is much
more reliable as compared to other hosting services. Here, natural disasters or local power problems
are not much problematic because cloud hosting is actually decentralized. With cloud hosting service,
users will have to pay according to their usage. This means that providers will charge for the amount
of resources used by the client instead of any fixed cost. Moreover, decentralization gives less control
to users on where the data has been saved so that privacy and data security are not to be concerned.
Clustering hosting: In this service for finer resource utilization, many numbers of servers are hosted
for similar content. For creating scalable solutions for web hosting or higher availability of dedicated
hosting, clustered servers are the perfect choice. They separate web serving from the capability of
database hosting.
Home server: It is generally a single system placed in some private residence that is used for hosting
more than one or just one website from consumer-grade broadband service provider.
Grid hosting-: grid hosting is a type of web host services where server cluster will function like grid
that is composed of several nodes. Grid hosting is not very popular nowadays because of congestion
issues.
