The windows dedicated server works solely on Windows operating system. In Windows operating system like Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP has the entire internet explorer browsers pre-configured for the carrying out of ASP [active server page] commands. Fundamentally, Windows web hosting is nothing but an NT-based hosting tool. Web hosting mostly implies web hosting service which can run on Windows operating systems. Actually, Windows web hosting is the best item to remedy to if you are using the ASP.NET pages for your web pages or MS .NET framework. The license fees being charged by Microsoft, the Windows plans are usually on the expensive side. By keeping this in mind, it is very important to know when the necessary of a Windows dedicated server arises and when should you decide for a Linux web hosting. More than 90% of the computers in the world are found with Windows operating system. Taking into consideration, it is clear that Microsoft dominates people who are on a lookout for website hosting. But, in the world of web server, nearly 20% of the websites, or less than that, use a Windows dedicated server
.
So when will the need for Windows dedicated servers arise?
1. The users who have Linux as their platform the .NET technologies feature will not available. The Windows web hosting plan needs to be preferred if you own a website which is based on the Microsoft.NET plan of web hosting. But keep in mind, if you go for the ASP without .NET technology, then the Linux people will offer a bit of support for it.
2. Only Windows web hosting plan will support Access databases. Access cannot run on a Linux operating system because it is a product of Microsoft, but in runs only on Windows operating systems.
3. The only database put forward by Microsoft is MSSQL. If you are looking for enterprise-level database software, there are some options available to run on Linux as well, but a Windows web hosting plan is the only option if you consider Microsoft unique MSSQL database.
4. One more area where Windows web hosting plan will become necessary if you use the Sharepoint features of Microsoft FrontPage 2003. Hence before taking a final choice on whether to go for windows dedicated server or not, consider what exactly you are in need!
