What is server rental and server hosting

Server rental means that users do not need to buy their own servers, but only need to put forward the requirements of hardware configuration according to the needs of the business. The host server is configured by the IDC service provider. Users adopt the way of lease, install the corresponding system software and application software to realize the exclusive high-performance server for users, and realize all the network service functions. The initial investment of users is reduced, and they can focus more on the research and development of their own business. Users can install the operating system and corresponding application software by themselves, and manage them completely, or the company can install the system and application software on behalf of users and provide server monitoring services free of charge. Users can rent monthly, annual rent, monthly rent without deposit, annual rent to send property rights.

Server hosting means that the customer buys the server himself and then hands it over to the computer room for management and maintenance through IDC (host vendor). The ownership and right of use of the server belong to the customer, and only need to pay the management fee. In the case of server hosting, if there is a problem with the hardware, the computer room is generally not responsible for maintenance and needs to be handled by the customer.

The advantage of server hosting is strong autonomy and complete control of the server. With the reduction of server costs, most professional and major customers tend to purchase their own equipment and then take it into custody, because they assemble a server in their own way. even the price of half the new accessories and half the second-hand accessories will not be too high. Users who want high performance can spend enough money to buy higher configuration products, and some users who pay attention to brand and stability can also directly buy brand servers from front-line manufacturers. In addition, some users may need to use a relatively special operating system and software, or they may need to copy a large amount of data to the server hard disk in advance, so it is not very convenient to operate the servers in the remote control computer room. Generally, they are debugged or copied before they are taken to the computer room for hosting.

Generally speaking, server hosting can choose to configure and install software, which has an advantage in hardware procurement, but it requires professional management and maintenance, while server rental is more flexible, there is no hardware cost, and maintenance is easier. For places far away from the computer room, you can choose to rent the server.
