What’s the benefit of having a dedicated/virtual hosting plan when using asp.net?

November 1st, 2009

Can you use just a regular hosting plan to make changes to a Microsoft SQL server database, or do you need dedicated/virtual?

You can regular hosting plan…. nearly all hosting plans come with some sort of SQL database these days. The only thing I’d be careful about is to make sure it has a Microsoft SQL database (which is only simply called MS SQL). Sometimes shared hosting plans also have limits on the amount of databases you can have.

But if you want complete control of the SQL database server (ie/ want to make changes to the settings, etc)… you’ll have to get a dedicated/virtual.

For a shared server, you’re sharing the database and resources with other ppl, so while you can modify the parts that pertain to your site, you are NOT given complete control. Virtual splits the server up into de discrete portions, so you would have complete control and same thing with dedicated (except that you get the whole server of course for dedicated).

If you’re looking for a host I’d recommend http://www.liquidweb.com/?RID=vkoduru I’ve been with them for a year and they’ve been nothing but amazing. Their prices are a little higher than some other providers (lower then others)… it’s mid-range in terms of prices, but the quality you get is high-end so it’s definitely worth it. One thing to be careful of when comparing web hosts is that it’s not just the specs of the server (hard disk space, bandwith) etc that count. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS RELIABILITY AND THE SPEED OF THE CONNECTION… liquidweb is extremely reliable (I haven’t had one down time yet) and they have a great speedy connection… a lot of the cheaper hosts have bad reliability records and often go down for hours, or sometimes even a whole day.

What is a Microsoft SQL database useful for?

October 30th, 2009

Hi

My internet server hosting package says I have a 150mb ‘Free’ Microsoft SQL database if I install it.

I cannot think what is would be useful for!

An online forum maybe like Vbulletin?

Is this the only use an SQL database is for?

Thanks!

SQL is a database .. it’s used to hold "variable" data that you might wish to display on your web pages ..

For example, say you created a web page called "My Holiday photo’s" .. well that’s OK when you only have a few photo’s and they don’t change very often …. but every time you want to ‘add’ extra photo’s it means changing the web page .. and what happens if you decide to add an extra ‘catagory’ or even re-arrange the photo’s ?

Say you decide to split "Holiday photo’s 2007" into "My holiday in Greece" and "My Spanish holiday" ?? This would mean a lot of work re-arranging ‘links’ on the page(s).

A better approach is to code the page so it looks into an SQL ‘table’ and finds a list of the (current) photo’s and what ‘categories’ etc. to display .. and even how to generate (lay out) the page and how many pages exist …

In other words, the web page is made ‘dynamic’ .. then, instead of changing the page every time, all you need to do is add to the SQL table …

MySQL is a relational database management system (RDBMS)[1] which has more than 6 million installations.[2] MySQL stands for "My Structured Query Language". The program runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. MySQL is officially pronounced /maɪˌɛskjuːˈɛl/ My S-Q-L, but often pronounced /maɪˌsiː’kwɛl/ My SEQuel[3]

The project has made its source code available under the terms of the GNU General Public License, as well as under a variety of proprietary agreements. MySQL is owned and sponsored by a single for-profit firm, the Swedish company MySQL AB, now a subsidiary of Sun Microsystems,[4]. As of 2009 Oracle Corporation began the process of acquiring Sun Microsystems; Oracle holds the copyright to most of the MySQL codebase.

MySQL is often used in free software projects which require a full-featured database management system, such as WordPress, phpBB and other software built on the LAMP software stack. It is also used in very high-scale World Wide Web products including Wikipedia, Google and Facebook

Powerful Website Hosting for Success in Ecommerce

October 5th, 2009

The continuing expansion of the Internet to even the remote corners of the globe had made it mandatory for organizations, as well as individuals, to possess their own websites to reach out to people. The conventional brick-and-mortar stores are being replaced by online virtual stores at an increasing pace. Even on the Internet, the competition had become so acute that having an ordinary website is no longer enough to win clients.

Hence, you require powerful website hosting strategies to succeed in ecommerce. Techniques like search engine optimization (SEO), virtual private server hosting or VPS hosting, dedicated hosting, windows hosting, etc. are needed to beat the competition.

Website Hosting with a Difference

Any competent website hosting service should have the following features to provide you win-win solutions.

Ý Creation of the website should not be a complicated process. With more than 700 templates to choose from, we have simplified website creation to a work of a few minutes. However, we could also design distinctive custom-built websites for ecommerce businesses that are unique.

Ý The website should be aesthetically pleasing and also functional. The site should hold the visitors’ interest and make them stay for a longer time in the site. This would increase the conversion rate exponentially.

Ý The website hosting should ensure that the contents are optimized for the major search engines line Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc. This intricate gearing of the contents for SEO is an absolute must to enable the website get listed at the top of the search directories.

Ý The website hosting should be affordable. The initial cost as well as the recurring maintenance and up gradation of the website should fit your business and budget.

Ý The website hosting service should be able to assess the competition and implement strategies to counter them on a continuous basis. Everyday, the face of the World Wide Web is changing and constant review and modification is vital for success in ecommerce.

Ý The support of the website hosting service after the website had been hosted should be on a 24×7 basis, instead of ad-hoc basis. This would ensure that the downtime of the site even due to extraordinary circumstances is kept to the minimum.

Ý The tools to create and maintain the website should be state-of-the-art ones, like HTML, XML, Flash, ASP, SQL, ColdFusion, .NET, etc., so that the website creates the maximum appeal and diverts a high amount of traffic to the site.

Keeping all these important features in mind, the website hosting services should offer options that could run on Linux or Windows at highly affordable rates. They should also provide VPS hosting or VDS hosting with facilities for shared web hosting and dedicated hosting services. These options provide you the freedom of individual hosting at a lesser cost than a separate dedicated server. At the same time, they should have completely dedicated hosting on Linux or Windows platforms for medium and large business houses and niche ecommerce business operators. They must have exclusive Windows hosting plans for specific applications that would operate only in Windows environment. Always ask to see the websites they have created and hosted. Compare the prices of at least 3 website hosting services. You would be able to find the right website hosting service that suits your requirement.
