Today, I will talk to you about the difference between the server and the virtual host, many people may not know much about it. In order to make you understand better, the editor has summarized the following content for you. I hope you can get something according to this article.

In the process of building a website, many webmasters will consider whether to choose a virtual host or a stand-alone server. Let's introduce the specific difference between the two.

Space size

The independent server is equivalent to a building, while the virtual host is equivalent to a relatively independent office building in the building. This analogy can clearly distinguish the relationship between the two.

If the enterprise is building a station and planning at the later stage, it is very large, just like that kind of super-large enterprise, it will contract the whole building. For ordinary enterprises, they only need to rent one floor or one room. Therefore, the virtual host station is suitable for some small and medium-sized enterprises, while the independent server is suitable for large-scale integrated group enterprises.

Management and maintenance

The virtual host will provide part of the space, while the overall server environment does not need enterprise management, which only needs to manage and maintain the code and operation of the website itself. In contrast, independent server rental, the operating environment and maintenance of the entire server need to be maintained by the enterprise itself, and the technical threshold is high.

Expense cost

The cost of building a virtual host station will be much less, and the cost of independent servers is relatively high. But it should be noted that the website space business does not provide download function, therefore, if you need to do website download enterprises, it is best to choose an independent server to build a station, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.

On the whole, for some special enterprises, such as large-scale websites or downloads, they need to choose independent servers, while others can choose conventional virtual hosts to build sites. Of course, how to choose a suitable virtual host also needs to be purchased according to the selection criteria of the host, and it is suggested that the host of large brands should be given priority, so that the operation of the website will be guaranteed in the later stage.
