Selection of Server Systems

The station needs to use a server. In the server purchase process, in addition to the common CPU, memory, hard disk, bandwidth and other configurations, users also need to choose their own operating system. Most Cloud Virtual Machine uses Windows Server or Linux operating system:

Windows system

Windows Server is a proprietary operating system designed specifically for servers, including server applications developed by Microsoft, such as IIS Web Server, tools to support virtualization, and security tools including firewalls. The user interface and development environment of the Window System are object-oriented and easy to understand, learn, and use. Windows is a single-user, multitasking operating environment that allows users to run multiple applications simultaneously or do several things simultaneously in one program.

Windows has several versions: Win 2003 was an earlier release, but as the server hardware environment continues to improve, Microsoft has basically stopped security updates for this version, so it is no longer recommended. Now the mainstream version is win2008, which is more mature than the former, whether it is network optimization or system compatibility. Win2012 expands the original functions of the system, which has the advantages of openness, scalability, security, high performance and simple operation, but the application penetration rate needs to be improved.

Linux system

Linxu is an operating system built specifically for multi-user server environments, which allows different users to log in to the system together and share resources fairly. Linux runs stably and efficiently, has a large user and community support, can quickly discover system vulnerabilities, quickly release security patches, and supports a large number of high-quality open source software. However, Linux-based operating systems are technically demanding and difficult to manage for small businesses or general users. Nanchang Jibi

Linux has a large number of distributions available, each offering a complete server operating system and a manager that allows users to easily install software such as Web servers or email services, commonly used distributions such as CentOS, Ubuntu, and Debian. CentOS is an enterprise-level Linux distribution, stable, small resource consumption, simple configuration;Ubuntu has strong software source support, good compatibility, but mainly desktop applications;Debian is known for its stability, the entire system foundation core is very small, for small memory, Debian is preferred.

How to choose an operating system

So which operating system is more appropriate to choose in the process of building a station? It mainly depends on the actual application requirements. Generally speaking, you can choose according to the website development language, database type and user habits: if the development language is ASP,. NET, HTML, database is ACCESS, SQL Server, please choose Windows system; if the development language is PHP, HTML, database is MySQL, please choose Linux system; in addition, if you need a large number of optional linux systems, more accustomed to graphical interface optional windows system.
