You must use a server to make your website public and visible to the public. In other words, you have to use servers to host your website. When using servers, you should pay attention to the performance of the site, the amount of hardware power, cost and resources, because there are different types of servers. To know which server your site is suitable for, you should first get acquainted with different types of servers and then, based on your needs, you can find the right server to host your website.
The servers are ready to host websites in two types, dedicated and virtual. But each of these servers has its own function, which we will get acquainted with in this article.
Types of servers
Types of servers are divided into three categories depending on the type of function and the amount of access to resources and user needs.
1- Dedicated server
2- Virtual server
3- Shared hosting
Dedicated server
Unlike a virtual server, a dedicated server provides all the features and powers to users and other users do not share the server resources, but all the resources on the server are fully available to users. The main and tangible difference between dedicated and virtual servers is that the amount of access and how to manage server software resources are the same on both servers, but the amount of access and how to manage hardware resources of dedicated servers is much more than virtual servers. There are no restrictions on the use of hardware resources on dedicated servers, and users can use and use as much hardware as the processing power has. The amount of access and management of software resources in virtual and dedicated servers are equal, but the amount of access to hardware resources in dedicated servers is much greater and wider than virtual servers.
