Why the bad PC as a server.
The whole practice is a small business built on the strategy of "doing more, doing less." No matter how small the company, he has accounting system. Time passes, the increase in the number of employees and the amount of data work becomes uncomfortable: increase the execution time of simple operations, the usual action of blocking the work of the office. Fleet renewal will help the company if taken into account computing the queries used by applications, and it if you take the example of a fairy-tale character eating a furrier seven caps from one little skin.
When the accounting system runs 1-3 people, and a bit of operations, the company's network infrastructure is simple: as a rule, the server performs the role of the PC with shared access. From time to time a micro-business is reconciled to the unavailability of data and applications (if not the host PC with password), the vulnerability information, the clutter in her storage.
Already at 3-5 employees of the enterprise for productive work you need a dedicated server. Unlike a user PC, the server must be running 24×7 (8×5) multitasking multi-user environment, with access to data and applications over the network, different access rights and an appropriate level of reliability of storage. "The server of initial level" almost always refers to the generic device that acts as a database server or a file server is often a mail server and application server, domain controller, Internet gateway, etc.
WHETHER TO CHOOSE FREE HOSTING?
We all know that free cheese only in a mousetrap, so that when the future owner of website hosting company offers you to use free hosting, he begins to have mixed feelings – on the one hand the joy of the opportunity to obtain free of charge, on the other hand caution. So whether or not to use a free hosting site without ads?
It is clear that a truly free hosting will not be. The company, which provides hosting without price, must be something to earn and, most likely, it will be advertising and additional paid services or a combination of the first and second. Thus, free hosting cannot be called such in the truest sense of the word, a more accurate expression is "free hosting".
That is, if you choose to host your site such hosting, you will have to tolerate the presence of third-party advertising. And not the fact that it will be enough, so if there are any free hosting, just like this, where there will be one or two small neat banner, which will not be staring the whole page. It is also important to remember that free hosting is less than paid, that is, if the site made only in HTML, then everything will work fine. But if you need php support, it might not be, and may not be able to create a database that you need, for example, for the online stores (and not only). Another disadvantage of free hosting – very limited space for placing files of the site. Of course, in the initial stages to use the hosting services, but as practice shows, if a site is created for long life and the successful promotion, such methods are not very comfortable. Thus, for commercial websites it is definitely better to choose hosting providers, offering flexible billing plans, option you can add to your. But if the site will remain my home page (a page about yourself, your profession, your Hobbies, etc. like that), then quite a reasonable choice and free hosting.
