Linux web hosting simply means the web hosting services that are running on a server that is working under a Linux operating system, so you do not need to stay confused over its description any more. Linux web hosting is mainly considered by the online business owners running either small or medium business in nature.
Linux Web Hosting
The main reason behind the consideration of Linux web hosting is that Linux web hosting costs a lot less as compared to other options such as Windows web hosting for instance. Now the question is that why is it cheaper? An open source software product is what Linux is and this is why it does not carries high licensing fees that other systems have associated with them; you can even download Linux operating system for free and use it without paying anything as ell. While on the other hand, if a web hosting service is offering windows web hosting, it would be expensive since they would be paying for the maintenance fees along with the softwares costs as well.
Linux web hosting carries a few good advantages with it such as being cheaper compared to windows, having support for MySQL databases and PHP scripts, and some of the hosts may also offer telnet accounts at a little or no additional cost as well. In many cases, Linux is said to be the winner when it comes to being secured compared to windows. This is the main reason to why programmers and web designers prefer Linux more. There are also many other customisation options and configurations available with Linux web hosting.
You can also expect a high uptime from a Linux web hosting service because the Linux operating systems are too stable. Another plus point is the Linux support for most of the scripting languages and web file types such as .htm, .html, .php, .pl, .xml, .asp, .shtml, and a few others as well. One thing you should know that a Linux web hosting is not compatible with any of the Microsoft technologies such ASP scripts for instance.
So when it comes to the comparison between Linux web hosting and windows web hosting, Linux web hosting is a lot cheaper but, windows web hosting does support ASP and if you pay some extra fee, then you can enjoy other services as well such as Cold Fusion, SQL server databases, and access databases.

Many of you might be aware of the term “Clustered hosting” but do not really know what it is all about and what are the associative advantages of clustered hosting as compared to other types of conventional hosting. In order to eliminate the intrinsic errors that are mostly found in shared hosting systems, clustered web hosting are introduced in the market. This basically means putting numerous servers in a group and to share the work stack by networking them all together. In order to make sure that a certain site is not limited to just one server, the resources of the sites are drawn with total accuracy. In this way the server’s consistency is maximized along with allocation to all websites with their own service idleness.
Clustered hosting includes the processed power of several servers to share with each other along with their programs and during active time, the power gets distributed. This can be further simplified as the massive amount of power from the whole pool of servers being used at one time. The info gets transferred at a super speed to each and every single server that is there in the cluster when any new account is added or changes been made to the existing account of the client.
When we talk about the associative advantages of clustered web hosting we know that the security tiers are generally not integrated in the platforms in usual normal hosting situations. In order to combat this weakness, many of the hosts bring in the firewall method. Unlike this situation, there are many levels of security present on a clustered hosting platform. There is a proxy tool; built-in firewall, super fluous switching structure, and intellectual routing are present in a usual clustered hosting network. Compared to other traditional hosting techniques, clustered hosting brings in a lot of benefits this way.
Another important factor is that it helps in overcoming network attacks that often results in hardware corruption. You can get clustered web hosting at competitive prices and the client is also allowed to handle security options as well. Lastly, another important associative advantage of clustered hosting is that it does not require any human interaction because of being completely data-driven.
Above mentioned are some of the associative advantages of clustered hosting, I am sure that now you would be able to distinguish between clustered web hosting and other types of Dedicated Server Hosting with ease.

Have you ever heard about 32 bit and 64 bit web hosting? You might not, most of the hosting companies promise to their customers that their servers are equipped with high memory like 8 GB, 16 GB etc. and some companies in India claim that they provide unlimited hosting by having more RAM/Memory but they don’t mention more details about how this RAM or memory being utilized for the applications or websites hosted within the server. Here we discuss what are the advantages of 64 bit hosting over 32 bit web hosting.
32 bit systems or software supports up to 4 GB memory at any one given point of time. some of the recent Rich Internet Applications requires much more memory than this to complete the tasks. This may be one of the reason for chip making companies to introduce 64 bit processors.
The problem with most of the hosting companies to provide 64 bit hosting is, still most of the available software like control panels, plugins, tools today is 32 bit, but the processors are 64 bit. Microsoft is catching up pretty fast on this by releasing 64 bit Windows 7, windows server 2008, databases and other Operation systems so as other operating systems also catching up well.
Here is the diagrammatically explanation about the layers effect:
If you want to run a 64 bit application, you need to have support from all the lower levels.
So, building a server only with 8 or 16 GB memory/RAM will not suffice to support the Rich Internet Applications which consumes lot of server resources. You need to have OS and other depended software like databases, Control panels etc. also have 64 bit. A 64 bit OS and other software will use the maximum memory provided and support RIA to perform complex tasks.

CDN is one of the most common words we are hearing these days in web hosting industry. When you try any performance evaluation tool for your website speed test, one error it will show is Content Delivery Network not used. This is mostly used by the large websites to cater their website visitors who are geographically diversified.
A Content Delivery Network means a collection of multiple web servers geographically distributed across various locations and delivering the content to the users more efficiently. Using this user will be automatically identified and served the content from the network server whose proximity is nearer or the server with the quickest response time will be chosen.
Advantages:
Most of the loading time is spent on download the contents of the page like images, scripts, CSS and Flash etc. Instead of changing your application architecture to Grid or cluster as discussed in the recent articles you can also opt for this content delivery network option to improve the performance of your application. Majority of the components in any web application or website are images, JS files, stylesheets, flash etc. This way you can reduce the response time easily and loading them using CDN will increase the performance and speed up the website or application.
Disadvantages:
When you try to redesign your web application to work on content distributed network, depends on the application you might need to change your application architecture. Changing the architecture could create issues with synchronizing the sessions state, database transactions replications and cached content. So before you choose to set up your application on CDN, you need to analyse how it works and take a decision.
Here are the companies who are providing cost-effective CDN solutions Softlayer, Akamai technologies, limilight networks and mirror image. For small and medium size portals this option is not feasible while the large companies who has huge audience can use this and reduce response times and improve the performance of the website or application.

To understand about Cluster Web Hosting, first you need to know what is Cluster computing. In this article i discuss about how to use cluster computing for Web hosting needs and increase the profits for web hosting companies.
Cluster Computing:
Cluster Computing means getting the large and complex computations done by using multiple computers or computational resources. In other words, It is a group of internally linked computers working together as a single computer. All the computers or computational resources may or may not be connected through LAN. Clusters are used mostly for enhancing the performance and scalability for a single computer and it is a cost-effective solution. In other terms it can used for Load Balancing and High Availability with 99.99% uptime.
Different types of clusters are High Availbility clusters, Load Balancing clusters, Compute Clusters and Grid Computing. Clustering has been available since 1980’s, used for Mainframes. A typical example for a new age cluster is a Load Balancing cluster used for Huge Traffic website.
Using the Cluster technique in Web hosting, you can achieve the scalability, uptime and redundancy. You can use Load Balancing cluster technique for Shared Web Hosting servers to counter high need of CPU resources and disk space. By dividing the tasks performed by one server into multiple tasks and assigning each to one computational resource and managing all of them using open source projects like Linux HA; you can cluster the web hosting servers.
