We have a dedicated server with huge application that use intensively one database and we notice that we block at 15000 people / days ... our website is arkadia.com
So my questions are :
* is the server can be full and this why we block at 15000 people / days ? most important, how to check it ?
* is the DNS (enom.com DNS server) can be not fast enalf or not wheel configured ? how to check it ?
* is the hosting company can be not good enalf (low bandwith for exemple or someting else)? again how to check it ?
I have been using Santrex shared hosting for some time due to their low prices - below 3$ per month. And it has been quite good quality/price ratio. But now it's time to upgrade, so my question is - has anyone got experience with their dedicated servers and support?
quality shared hosting solution for a WordPress-powered multi user blog. The blog currently has around 1000 posts, 5000 comments and around 2000 unique visitors every day, but those numbers will grow grow exponentially in future, so the hosting in question needs to be expandable since I will eventually have to move to a dedicated server.
Right now, however, I want a quality US-based hosting company that has good connection to EU, with fast support and basic features: PHP5, MySQL5, shell access, ~10GB HD space and ~50-100GB traffic.
First and foremost I am looking for quality and am prepared to pay as much as $25-30 per month.
I've seen a lot of discussion regarding low budget providers and am surprised I haven't seen many mentioning Wholesale Internet. I'd like to give my personal review.
I've used them several times over the past two years, and currently have two boxes with them. Support has always been professional and fair.
It has been my experience that they tend to go above and beyond what the customer expects, which seems rare for budget hosts. I have never been nickel and dimed over a small upgrade or service.
Uptime is as good as it gets. Hardware seems reliable. Delivery time is fairly quick. Their prices on servers with DirectAdmin are impressive.
I would wholeheartedly reccomend them to anyone in need of a budget box. Their prices are extremely competitive, and they can do seem to give extremely good custom quotes if nothing they offer quite meets your needs.
I am about to open a third web site and am looking for a good place to host it. My two existing sites are currently with a local (Croatian) The Planet reseller which has quite good support (and are partly sponsoring me), but tend to be a bit too weak when it comes to high load peaks (when sites get dugg mainly).
So for a third site I am considering something else. Having read some discussions I can conclude that these days the actual amount of space and bandwidth isn't such a good measure of actual quality and these numbers are mainly used for marketing.
I also learned that best web hosting depends on specific needs and desires. So here is what I want and I hope you can make some good suggestions.
I want a reliable, high uptime, fast web hosting with great customer support (24/7, quick, knowledgeable and friendly) which wont impose bad mysql limits and will not crash when slashdotted or dugg.
It would be good if it would use some sort of a reliability boosting system like clustering (although I guess it doesn't have to be clustering necessarily).
I also need it to have at least 2GB of web space and more than 100GB of monthly bandwidth but with an option of extending this if need arises *without downtime*.
If it would anyhow be possible for it to be Free Open Source Software friendly, possibly offering a webmin control panel in addition to or instead of cpanel. Of course, it has to run on GNU/Linux. I don't need *anything* Microsoft related on it.
It needs to have a good track record. Please don't advertise your own hosting companies here. I'd like to hear recommendations from real people with real experience.
My budget is up to $10 a month or $120 a year. I believe I should be able to get roughly the above with a good host for that price these days. It's a competitive market. Someone honest has got to fit the bill.
I want to pay up front a monthly fee and have it fully managed so I don't have to worry why the MySQL server just suddenly died or why Server 4 doesn't respond.
1) Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2,2 GHz; 2) RAM: 2024 MB DDRAM; 3) Hard Drive: 2x 250 GB SATA (can be smaller); 4) Traffic: At least 1000 GB or unrestricted; 5) Port: 100 Mbit / sec. (ideally 1000 Mbit / sec.); 6) IP-Addresses: 2.
Mandatory conditions: 1) A great date-center; 2) Operational and anglophone support; 3) Ability to establish a panel, for example: ISPmanager.
Recommended requirements: 1) Protection against DDoS-attacks; 2) The ability to administer the server, a company that provides services to lease (regular updates, round-the-clock monitoring, etc.).
The server is designed for the site, which will:
1) Forum; 2) Video and audio materials (up to 20 spots, for up to 10 minutes each), which can be viewed directly on the site using flash-player or download. Clips will not be frequently changed or supplemented; 3) Downloading developed software, up to 0.5 Mb; 4) Download documentation formats: DOC and PDF, up to 2 Mb; All audio, video and documentation for its own production.
Additional information:
The number of visitors, initially to 10000 per month (probably much less or slightly more, not yet known) The audience will be visitors from the following countries: Ukraine, Russia, Poland, UK, Germany, France, USA and Canada.
Budget: up to $ 200 a month. But if such amount is not sufficient for the entry requirements, are ready to revise the budget.
Need a really high-quality channel of communication and operational support, etc. Perhaps for these tasks, you recommend other requirements to a server and placing the territory? Check your real council.
Also look in the direction of affordable rental server and utilization of services: Akamai Technologies. If someone has experience working with Akamai, I ask, share their views. Should I use it for such a project?
A lot of information has been revised to servers in Germany, UK and USA. But the single answer, yet to be found.
In the past WHM gave us the chance to check the hosting accounts daily cpu, memory and mysql usage in server status, but on the new WHM/CPANEL releases we noticed that this values are not so precise as they were.
Anyone know how can be found the average use of cpu/memory/mysql of each hosting account letting the hosting companies understand who uses more resources?
Prior to installing FFmpeg and its dependencies, I want to know about FFmpeg server-side conversion without the php script. Does it require those php scripts in the first place or I can just run an ssh command?
Also, does this FFmpeg have a configuration file in which you can set the quality of the converted .fla videos?
How about a lossless quality conversion and keeping the size proportion of the video the same?
Meaning, for example, from .avi to .fla without sacrificing/loosing the quality much or noticeably.
I have one client who cannot see my server and all domains on it. I;ve checked if his IP is block or not and I didn't see his IP on the apf deny host file. How to you check IP if it can see my server? I just want to make sure before calling the ISP.
How can I check uptime or how to check downtime on my server?My members told me that they can not login to my site and it shows: Page can not found or Sever not found.
I have two servers one from hostmysite and other one is from 15minute server, I would like to know which one is faster, I have a dedicated server from 15minuteserver, but sometime I get slow speed I am not really sure which one is faster.
i have a dedicated server , some one else made the security for me, how could to be sure of its security? how could to be sure of all php functions contain risk are closed or disabled? how could to be sure of there are not any security gap?
One of our customers has reporting not being able to access any sites hosted on our server. He is using a cable connection with a static IP number . He is able to access all other web sites on the Internet, he just can't access the ones hosted on our network.
Do you have any ideas on why this could be occuring, or if there is something on the server which could have blacklisted his static IP, preventing him access.
