A dedicated hosting server can be managed either by the web hosting service provider, or by the client, on the basis of the specific dedicated hosting plan. In either case, the party managing the dedicated server has access to a software tool to restart it at any specific time.

OSs for Dedicated Hosting

There are different web server OSs such as Windows, FreeBSD, various Linux distributions, etc. Certain hosting companies offer dedicated hosting utilizing one particular OS, whereas others give customers an option. MSSQL databases and .NET web sites require a Windows server, for example, and will not run on another OS, whereas PHP and HTML driven websites using MySQL databases will perform on any Operating System. Before renting a dedicated hosting server, find out what the hosting corporation offers and what the requirements of your site are.

Software Apps for Dedicated Hosting

By default, each dedicated hosting server includes all the software apps required in order to administer a web site - a web server, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and so on), PHP software, an FTP server and so on, so once you obtain the dedicated web server, you can upload your files and take the site online. The majority of web hosting distributors grant full server root privileges, in other words you can activate any software on the dedicated hosting server and change any settings. Some script-powered software platforms need server-side libraries that should be pre-activated in order for them to operate. Plenty of e-commerce scripts, for instance, impose such a requirement, and receiving full root-level access to the dedicated hosting server is essential for establishing an online store. Other hosting companies do not grant root access, but help the customer install the necessary software - this is the so-called managed hosting service, as compared with the unmanaged hosting solution, which comes with root-level access.
