What is a server?

To better understand the server rental service (dedicated server rental), MONA Media will give an overview of what a server is and what server rental means.

A server (server) is a computer connected to the Internet or a computer network, with a static IP and very high processing power. Users install software on it so that other computers can access it to request services and resources.

Put simply, a server is a computer designed with far more capabilities, with much greater data storage and processing capacity than a regular computer. Servers are used to store and process data. Dedicated servers are also the foundation of every service on the internet, from website, applications and games: all of them run through this kind of machine.

What is server rental?

Server rental is when a business pays a dedicated server provider to rent server space (or an entire dedicated server) to store, run and manage the business's data.

By renting a server, a business does not need to invest heavily in hardware or an operations team to manage it. Instead, it only needs one person or a managed support service. Time and resources can then go into developing projects and growing the business.

The role of a server

From this definition, we can already see the role and importance of a server. It is the central brain of the whole system, where data is stored, served or processed and then continuously delivered to workstations to meet the 24/7 needs of users or organisations over the internet or a LAN.

What do businesses usually rent servers for?

Most businesses rent servers to store information and to manage and run their software when they do not want to, or cannot, invest in their own servers.

With a reliable server rental service, a business only needs to optimise the hardware for its system without investing in individual workstations.

For individual users, the server stores and runs the data of their system. For example, an internet café uses a server to connect to its other workstations.

Pros and cons of renting a server

When a business grows large enough and needs to expand its marketing, run e-commerce or build its own information system, it has to weigh the drawbacks of investing in and running its own servers, such as: maintenance costs, operations,… With a server rental service, you get many more advantages.

Advantages of renting a server

• Renting a server saves on capital investment and reduces bandwidth.
• The provider keeps the server system running continuously, without downtime.
• You still have full administrator rights on the server and can install software and features for your work.
• Renting a server provides better security, with an experienced team monitoring, supervising and operating it.
• Lower cost of server colocation, and high safety since the server system is monitored 24/7.

Disadvantages of renting a server

Despite its many advantages, server rental still has some limitations, such as:

• You need to budget a fee to rent the server.
• Without experience, you have to hire an operator.
• It is hard to find a reliable server provider that keeps business data safe.
• Inconvenient relocation and price changes also make it hard for many businesses to find a server rental service they are happy with.
• There are many types of dedicated servers, so renters are often unsure which one to choose.

Common types of servers on the market

Knowing the different types of servers helps a business choose the right one for the data it needs to store. By how the system is built, there are 3 basic types of servers:

Physical server (Dedicated Server)

Dedicated Server is a server that runs on its own hardware, with dedicated components including HDD, RAM, CPU and network card.

Virtual server (Virtual Private Server – VPS)

VPS is a server created by using virtualisation technology to split a physical server into multiple virtual servers. These virtual servers work like physical servers and share resources from that physical server.

Cloud server (Cloud Server)

A cloud server is a server built by combining several physical servers that share the same SAN storage system.

Besides classifying servers by how the system is built, servers can also be grouped by function:

• Database servers (Database Servers).
• File servers (File Servers) such as Google Drive, Dropbox,…
• Mail servers (Mail Server) such as Yahoo Mail, Gmail, Yandex,…
• Web servers (Web Server) serving shoppers, such as Taobao and Google Shopping, and web servers for reading news,…).
• Print servers (Print Server), usually used in small business networks.
• Application servers (Application Servers), used to run ERP and CRM software, or more generally a dedicated server that provides web, mail, file server, database services,…
