When it comes to dedicated web hosting, users can choose to own their own web server. This means that they are fully responsible for it, including if something goes wrong. If you have the technical know-how then this doesn’t have to be a problem, but most people simply wouldn’t know where to start when it comes to maintaining their own server.

This why many individuals, organisations and businesses choose a reputable web hosting company such as CWCS to provide a managed dedicated server for their website.

Web hosting providers may offer one of the following types of dedicated managed servers:

Fully managed web servers would include monitoring, software and operating system updates as well as reboots and security patches. Customers can leave everything in the hands of CWCS.

In a managed dedicated server environment, the provider would offer a medium level of management which would include monitoring, updates and a limited amount of support. Users or clients would probably be required to perform specific tasks.

Self managed web servers require regular monitoring and some form of maintenance by the web hosting company, whereas the client would be expected to provide most of the operational duties and tasks required to maintain and run the server.

You need to decide which level of management you will require to keep your business running optimally. CWCS can provide expert advice about which package will suit your needs best.
