Hosting

Hosting is a service that allows individuals and organizations to place their websites or web applications on the internet. Essentially, a hosting provider offers space on its server and ensures a constant internet connection so that your site is accessible to users around the clock.

Main Aspects of Hosting

• Server Space: You are allocated a certain amount of disk space on the server to store your site's files—HTML, CSS, images, videos, and other resources.

• Internet Connection: Servers are constantly connected to high-speed internet networks, ensuring fast loading times for your site and accessibility for users at any time and from anywhere in the world.

• Technical Support: Round-the-clock technical support is provided to help resolve issues related to your site's operation, server setup, and other technical aspects.

• Security: Basic protection from cyberattacks is ensured, SSL certificates are offered for data encryption, and additional services for data backup are provided.

Types of Hosting

1. Shared Hosting:

• Description: Multiple sites are hosted on a single physical server and share its resources (processor, RAM, disk space).

• Advantages: Cost-effective and easy to manage.

• Disadvantages: Limited resources and dependence on the load from other sites on the server.

2. Virtual Private Server (VPS):

• Description: The server is divided into virtual servers, each functioning as a separate dedicated server with guaranteed resources.

• Advantages: More control, stability, and scalability.

• Disadvantages: Requires some technical skills and is more expensive than shared hosting.

3. Dedicated Server:

• Description: An entire physical server is provided for the use of one client.

• Advantages: Maximum performance and full control over the server.

• Disadvantages: Requires administrative experience and is more expensive than a virtual server.

4. Cloud Data Center:

• Description: Your site uses the resources of multiple servers combined into a "cloud."

• Advantages: High reliability, flexibility in resource usage, and scalability.
