Executive summary about hosting linux by Teddy Low

A few reasons attract people to use Window Hosting:

1. Window Hosting has .NET technologies including ASP.net whereas Linux Hosting do not have it. This feature is necessary if you want to set up website which requires .NET technologies and ASP.net.

2. Access Database Window Hosting has this option. This option only compatible and only available on Window Hosting.


3. MSSQL

MSSQL is an enterprise class database which set up by Microsoft. Linux Hosting also have this feature which only is common enterprise class database.

4. Share points Service

For Window Hosting, it has its own share points feature which is known as 2003 Frontpage.

Now, I would like to bring your attention to Linux Hosting:

1. Free of Charge Enterprise Class Website

Basically Linux Hosting is an open source platform where everybody can install and use it. It offers lots of major services for free. It can link together with other services like Apache, MySQL and PHP in order to provide infrastructure for many high traffic websites.

2. Better PHP

As in compare between Linux Hosting and Window Hosting, Linux Hosting can run better PHP. But if the PHP scripts are in heavy load, then there will be no much different between them.

3. Cheaper Rate

As in overall, Linux Hosting is cheaper by 20% than Window Hosting.

So a conclusion, if your website utilizes lots of Microsoft based technologies, then Window Hosting is more suitable for you. And if your website utilizes other technologies, then Linux Hosting will be more suitable for you. Furthermore, you can save more by using Linux Hosting.

Linux Web Hosting

Article about hosting linux by Ali Foroutan

Linux is a complete operating system that is similar but not identical to Unix. It runs on a wide variety of hardware, ranging from Intel and AMD CPUs to more exotic hardware such as Digital Alpha computers, PowerPCs, and Silicon Graphics workstations. Probably the most unique characteristic of Linux is that it is freely distributable, that means the source code for the kernel and most software cannot be withheld. It does not mean that companies cannot charge for it. By means of comparison, hosting a website on Unix or Linux is nearly identical.

There are many options available when it comes to writing CGI scripts on a Linux machine. The most common at the time of this writing are PHP and PERL. There are many introductions, tutorials, and even sample scripts available on the Internet when it comes to PHP and PERL.

There are many flavors of databases that run on Linux, but the most prevalent among web host providers are mSQL, MySQL., and PostgreSQL. These databases are all relational in nature, and allow highly optimized communication with your website for quick retrieval of information.

If you plan to host the site yourself, and you own the web servers or the software on them, then Linux (or Unix) would definitely be a less expensive option. If you plan to sign up with a web hosting company, and they own the servers and the software installed on them, you will find that there are excellent hosting options available for each platform at very comparable prices.
