Many users have specific needs for certain applications when they decide to purchase a server. From the hardware composition of the server, the main decisive influence on the different software applications environment is the processor subsystem as well as the storage subsystem. The processor subsystem consists of the processor, memory, and Northbridge chip, which is the main part of the server that provides data processing. The main components of the storage subsystem are the hard disk, the south bridge chip, the SAS card or RAID card, which is mainly responsible for data storage and transmission.
We strongly recommend that the first thing to consider is the memory capacity of the server, regardless of the application for which you are purchasing the server. Memory prices are now very cheap, and the price of dedicated memory for server use has dropped a lot. Even if money is very tight, the purchase of the best server memory expansion to more than 2GB, otherwise, no matter how expensive processor, RIAD system, can not give full play to its due performance.
Domain control server
The domain controller is the management center of the network, users, and computers, providing a secure network working environment. The domain controller not only responds to user login requirements, but also responsible for synchronizing and backing up user accounts, WINS, DHCP databases, etc. between servers, in addition, the main domain controller also does DNS services. An enterprise network with more than 2,000 users also requires a backup domain server to ensure network security. The system bottleneck for domain controllers is memory. In addition to the memory occupied by the operating system, each additional user requires 1KB of memory for storing user accounts.
Web servers
Web servers are devices that run Web server-side software to provide users with a variety of Web applications, and the performance requirements for the servers depend largely on the content of the site. If the site is composed of static pages, then the choice of server should give priority to the performance of the disk system. Through the use of high speed SAS hard disk and RAID card, the server can better provide users with static page transmission. If the services provided by the site are mostly dynamic pages, then in the selection of servers should pay attention to high-performance processors and high-capacity memory. This will enable the server to respond to user requests in a timely manner and make the appropriate calculations.
FTP server
If your FTP server has a high network interface rate, then the load on the server is mainly concentrated on the disk system. ftp operations do not consume a lot of processor resources, and because the ftp data transfer usually lasts for a long time, the performance of the hard disk and the stability of the requirements will have more. If your FTP server does not want to be equipped with RAID cards, then it is also better to choose SAS specification hard disk. It is not that SAS hard disk will be much better than the popular S-ATA hard disk performance, but the SAS hard disk failure rate in the long time working environment will be a little smaller. In addition, the cache capacity of the hard disk is more important in non-RAID systems. A larger cache reduces access to the disks, which in turn reduces the load on the hard drive while improving data lookup and transfer speeds.
File servers
If you want a capable file server, the first thing you need to look at is the server's storage system. Today's servers are equipped with Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, and their NICs are capable of delivering data bandwidth in the range of 700Mbps. Compared to the network rate, the disk is more likely to be the bottleneck that affects the performance of the file server. For a file server, a RAID system is a must. If you have enough money to purchase, then choose the SAS RAID system, if you want to save money then you can consider the S-ATA RAID system.
Database servers
Database services are one of the more heavily loaded application models for servers. Whether it is the processor subsystem or the disk subsystem, if you are dealing with a multi-user, high-load database application, you should equip the server with the best accessories. The first thing you need to consider for a database server is multiprocessors. Large database software can support multi-threaded computing, by using multiple processors you can improve the computing efficiency of the database to a large extent. Under the premise of ensuring the memory capacity, the disk system is also something you need to pay extra attention to. No matter how large the memory capacity, the disk read and write operations during database operations are inevitable. In the face of multiple I/O commands, a SAS RAID system will far outperform any single hard disk storage model in terms of performance, and it is well worth investing in a RAID system from the perspective of secure data storage.
Before purchasing a server, we also have to consider the size of the network and the use ...... >>
Question 2: How do I create my own website when I buy my own server? Hello. I'd like to say a few words about my personal opinion. In fact, you operate in this way is hungry simple problem complicated. Because you are involved in more than just the fixed IP problem. There is also the issue of filing. According to the requirements of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Web site in the country to put the domain name is required to record. And the record needs your access provider to help you submit. If you leave your server at home, you don't have an access provider. Filing is a problem. In addition, the ventilation and operating environment at home. Power protection measures are far from IDC server room. Server noise. Power consumption. Radiation is also an issue you need to consider. If you combine all of these things, it will cost you more than hosting your machines in a server room. It is much more costly than hosting your machine in a server room. In fact, you can first find a service provider to negotiate. Then you can configure the machine at home and then host it in a server room. This way no one knows your password. The server is only used by you. There is no such thing as insecurity. At least it's as safe as if you were at home.
Personal opinion. I hope this helps. If you do not understand the relevant issues or need help you can come to me
Question 3: How to buy a server to build a website You said 1T just refers to the server's hard disk capacity. It is not the most important factor in determining the performance of the server. Rather, it determines the amount of data that the server can store. A server can put how many sites on the one hand depends on the server configuration. Bandwidth. On the other hand, it also depends on the type of website. Size. For example, Xeon quad-core processor, 4G RAM, 1T hard disk. Such a server. If you put a corporate website. Put a few hundred is not a problem. But if you put a large portal. May put a can take up the resources. 1T hard disk. If you put a normal website with a small amount of data. You can put a lot of them. If you put movie resources or data download resources. Maybe 1T is not enough.
If you do not have your own server. Or if you are not familiar with the hardware, it is recommended that you rent a more cost-effective. You can choose to rent a free property rights. The first time I saw this, I had to go back to the office to get my own copy of the book. Because the rented machine is provided by the IDC company. Hardware warranty is also responsible for IDC. Replacement is free of charge in case of problems. This will reduce your many troubles. In addition, IDC is more familiar with the hardware. The servers provided by IDC are generally tested and run more stable.
I am engaged in IDC this line of work. I've been working on the IDC for a long time now.
Question 4: How do I buy a server? Don't do it yourself, it's not cost effective...
I'll tell you what the advantages of server hosting are. You'll understand
If you have your own server then I suggest you still go to hosting, otherwise both in terms of price and stability I think it's also much less than what you would have invested if you had placed your own server at home. The first thing you need to do is to get your server and related equipment hosted in a network data center that has perfect server room facilities, a high-quality network environment, abundant bandwidth resources and operating experience, and real-time monitoring of the user's network and equipment, so that the system achieves safe, reliable, stable and efficient operation (which allows you to make your server go farther). The hosted servers are maintained by you, or remotely by another authorized person. And you can't be in front of the server 24 hours a day, but the server room has 7x24 professional technicians 24 hours a day, so you can save the labor cost of their own maintenance, as well as to make their own website more secure and stable.
Question 5: How do I buy a web server? Hello. Web server is to find the IDC company to rent. Generally can be rented on a monthly basis. Can also be rented by the year.
First of all, you have to according to the size of their website. The first thing you need to do is to decide what kind of configuration and bandwidth you want to use. The first thing you need to do is to determine what kind of configuration and bandwidth you want to use, based on the source of your website. The first thing you need to do is to determine what kind of server room line you want to use. After determining these. Then find a number of eligible IDC companies to compare and filter. The most cost-effective way to do this is to find the one that offers the best price.
Need to pay attention to is to find a regular professional company. In addition, before the opening of more understanding of the service provider to provide technical support what. Another thing is that before the opening of the service provider can provide some user sites for reference. The more you know about it, the more you can decide.
HaiTeng data Yang broke for you to answer. If you have a web server related issues need help to find me, I can give you recommendations according to your situation.
Question 6: I bought a server and don't know how to use it. The server needs to be hosted in the server room, but also need to server technology, configuration environment
your case, directly rent a server space it (environment to get good, buy on our side
Question 7: How to buy my world server on the Taobao network
Question 8: I want to buy a server hosting,, their own website with, how to get it? That is, after buying how to get? Detailed tutorials, that is, after buying how to get, all Buy after the need to install a good operating system. And configure the website environment, upload your website data to the server above, through the IIS configuration. If the configuration of the environment and the site do not know if it is recommended to Baidu search the country tutorials. This can not rely on the text to describe in detail. Configure the site after the server hosted in the IDC room can be. Because it is not only the server that meets the needs of the site. It's the server's network environment that's important. Both home and business network conditions are not up to the level of the server room. So the hosting is still very necessary.
There is also a simpler way. It is directly according to your website needs to rent IDC company servers can be. The rented machine is provided by the IDC. The hardware warranty is also taken care of by the IDC. You don't need to buy the machine and send it to the server room. Relatively convenient and cost-effective. Personal recommendation. If you need help with any of these issues, you can come to me.
Question 9: How to choose the configuration of the server to buy? Server only one kind of consideration is the application and load. It's really one and the same.
The next is price and stability.
And finally, service.
