This article will explain in detail what the five suggestions for choosing a server configuration are. The content of the article is of high quality, so the editor will share it with you for reference. I hope you will have a certain understanding of the relevant knowledge after reading this article.

Will server rental suit me? This is a question we often hear. Although I can't tell you what is the best configuration for you, we can certainly give you some suggestions. We will discuss one by one:

1. How much disk space do I need?

Depends on the size of the file you need to store on the server. Simple websites / blogs dominated by static pages may not take up much space. If you plan to host a video / audio streaming website, you will need a considerable amount of disk space. Choose the space appropriately.

If you are not sure about the disk space required, I recommend that you start with about 20 GB of space and upgrade if necessary. Hard drives are not very expensive (usually).

two。 How much memory do I need?

Depends on the process running on the server. If you have a static website with less than 100 visits per minute, you may not need a lot of memory. On the other hand, if you plan to perform a large number of resource-intensive processes (such as complex calculations), or if you plan to run applications that require a lot of memory, you may need quite a lot of memory.

3. What should be my CPU power?

As mentioned in the case of RAM, if you have a less complex website with relatively low traffic, then you don't need to have a lot of CPU cores. A dual-core server is enough.

4. How much bandwidth may I need?

If it's a blog / static site, less than 100 visitors per minute. Your bandwidth usage should be in a lower gigabyte range. If you have a managed application that provides video or audio streams, you should expect monthly bandwidth usage-in which case you can choose a 10m bandwidth server.

5. Which web server should I run to rent?

If you have a low-traffic site, you can use Apache with up to 150,200 concurrent connections. Although we can adjust the apache variable to get satisfactory results, if apache serves more than 150,200 concurrent connections, its performance is not so good.

If the content of your site is mainly static (image, text, html), Nginx may be useful. If you have most of the dynamic content, Nginx may not make a specific difference.

Nginx and Apache, together as reverse proxies, are a good combination. If the site combines static and dynamic pages, this combination will work miracles.

In this setup, Nginx will run at the front end, listening on port 80 (or any other port based on your settings), and apache will run at the back end. Nginx will provide requests for static content and Apache will provide services for dynamic content. This setting also helps to save memory. The cPanel plug-in for nginx is available.

LiteSpeed- this is an efficient web server with very little memory footprint. If the memory usage of the Apache process is high and the problem lies in dynamic content, you can go to the LiteSpeed server. When you use it, it's best to use LiteSpeed API for php. Its performance is almost twice that of an Apache server. The cPanel plug-in for LiteSpeed is available.

This is the end of the five suggestions on how to choose a server configuration. I hope the above can be helpful to you and learn more. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
