Isolation – What technology to use

Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

Isolation is the term used to refer to cases where nobody else will have access to any of your resources that were allocated to you. It’s an welcoming aspect in the not-so-budget web page web hosting industry and if utilized correctly, can be successful deployed as a web page hosting product.
People running application that have a minimum level of requirements are usually the ones after these types of Virtual Private Servers. They simply offer a dedicated resources guarantee all over that shared technology such as OpenVZ and Virtuozzo(Which is based on OpenVZ) cannot provide.
Thanks to the official number of developers in the world increasing day by day and people demanding dedicated resources, isolated environments are very popular. Technologies specializing on this genre of virtual private servers are Xen, KVM, LXVM and so on. There are tons more of these available, but these have been proven stable over the course of time. They certainly should be an welcome addition to any fleet of products at a reseller hosting venture.

RAM Usage in Web Page Hosting

Monday, January 31st, 2011

Normally, web hosting sites will indicate how much disk space is allocated to you on account of your web hosting plan of choice. Most of the time they will offer even the most basic hosting plan unlimited disk space. This is an attractive feature to their hosting package as most webmasters would prefer the ability to build their web page hosting with no restrictions on the servers disk space.

But rarely do web hosting sites tell you about RAM capacity, and its one of the things that limit the capacity of the server your web page hosting is under. RAM is what allows the system to function smoothly despite the multitude of tasks.

The more RAM you have, the faster your computer runs. But if the server has limited RAM, the sites under it might not function so fast if many of them are used at the same time. Whats even worse is that RAM isnt easily upgraded like the hard disk is, so you need to pick a good web hosting site with a server with lots of RAM for your web page hosting.
