You have better things to do than waste time with managing technology. Get busy using tools that help your business and projects succeed. From high-availability redundant servers and load balancing to application support and consulting working with the team at Utropicmedia means you instantly add experience and knowledge to your team.
It may be time to consider managed server hosting (also known as dedicated server hosting) or a server colocation service. A managed server host will, depending on the level of service to which you both agree, take many of the hassles of managing Internet traffic so you can tend to clients, vendors, employees, suppliers, etc. More on server colocation services later.
Things to consider when contemplating using managed server hosting are:
• Operating system support
• Bandwidth and connectivity
• Security
• Software
The service contract you choose and your budget will determine what level of operating system support the server hosting will provide. Options include Microsoft Windows Server, Linux, Unix, etc. Managed server hosting can provide security fixes, application updates and software updates so you don’t have to. Managed server hosting can also provide your business with more sophisticated connection capabilities and high-powered bandwidths so your website hums along, pages download for customers quickly and your business is conducted that much more quickly.
Managed server hosting providers are dedicated to keeping your network secure and contend with hackers, spammers and other web invaders to keep them at bay so you don’t have to. These hosting services also have the flexibility to offer their clients different software that is tailored to your business needs.
