The two options for hosting a website: 
- shared web hosting, this is basically when a large number of web sites are being hosted on the same server 
- dedicate hosting,  this is when you have the entire web server to yourself, without sharing it with any other people 
advantages: affordable because the cost to operate is shared between you and other owners 
advantages: faster performance
dis: slower
dis: it could be expensive, require a lot of system resources, or higher level of security

Dedicated computers and appliances may be referred to as Web servers as well.
Many people mistakenly believe that a server is no different from a typical desktop computer. This couldn't be further from the truth. While almost any computer that meets the minimum hardware requirements can run a server operating system that alone does not make a desktop computer a true server. Even if the desktop computer had similar processor speeds, memory and storage capacity compared to a server, it still isn't a replacement for a real server. The technologies behind them are engineered for different purposes.

A desktop computer system typically runs a user-friendly operating system and desktop applications to facilitate desktop-oriented tasks.  In contrast, a server manages all network resources. Servers are often dedicated (meaning it performs no other task besides server tasks). Because a server is engineered to manage, store, send and process data 24-hours a day it has to be more reliable than a desktop computer and offers a variety of features and hardware not typically used in the average desktop computer.

1. Form Factor: For small businesses,  the best choice is a dedicated entry-level server in a tower configuration.
2. Processor: Choose a server-specific processor to boost performance and data throughput. 
3. Memory: Buy as much memory as you can afford and look for expansion slots for future upgrades.
4. Storage: Look for SATA or SCSI hard disks, not IDE

It allows client computers to make indirect network connections to other network services. If use proxy server, client computers will first connect to the proxy server, requesting some resources like web pages, games, videos, mp3, e-books, any other resources which are available from various servers over Internet. As soon as getting such request, the proxy server will seek for the resources from the cache in its local hard disk. If the resources have been cached before, the proxy server will return them to the client computers. If not cached, it will connect to the relevant servers and request the resources on behalf of the client computers. Then it 'caches' resources from the remote servers, and returns subsequent requests for the same content directly. https://padlet.com/alexking1998/n7o2mrbo2mo3/wish/159925922 2017-03-14 10:21:40 UTC https://padlet.com/alexking1998/n7o2mrbo2mo3/wish/159925922 To share Internet connection on a LAN. Some small businesses and families have multiple computers but with only one Internet connection, they can share Internet connection for other computers on the LAN with a proxy server.To speed up Internet surfing. If use proxy server, all requests from client computers will reach the proxy server at first, if the proxy server has cached the required resources in its local hard disk before with the web cache function, clients will get feedback directly from proxy server, it will be more quickly than direct accessing.To hide the IP address of the client computer so that it can surf anonymous, this is mostly for security reasons. A proxy server can act as an intermediary between the user's computer and the Internet to prevent from attack and unexpected access.To implement Internet access control like authentication for Internet connection, bandwidth control, online time control, Internet web filter and content filter etc.To bypass security restrictions and filters. For example, many work offices have blocked facebook and myspace however, you can use proxy server to bypass such restrictions and access blocked websites easily.To scan outbound content, e.g., for data leak protection.To circumvent regional restrictions. For example, a server using IP-based geolocation to restrict its service to a certain country can be accessed using a proxy located in that country to access the service. https://padlet.com/alexking1998/n7o2mrbo2mo3/wish/159926012 2017-03-14 10:21:56 UTC https://padlet.com/alexking1998/n7o2mrbo2mo3/wish/159926012 what is a routing table alexking1998 https://padlet.com/alexking1998/n7o2mrbo2mo3/wish/159926077 A routing table is a set of rules, often viewed in table format, that is used to determine where data packets traveling over an Internet Protocol (IP) network will be directed.
