Use of High End Technologies
The process of web hosting has been simplified, has been made more user friendly over the years. Use of cutting edge technologies and concepts in the background helped the cause. We can be proud of the advancements that have been made in such a short period of 19 years. Among several concepts “Virtualization” is one of them that webhosting servers use to support the growing demands.
The server space includes access to hard drives, bandwidth on a single physical server. Now any server is bound to have physical characteristic, hardware configuration that do not get disclosed to guest applications and software. Instead the guest operating system gets routed to another abstract computing platform through hypervisors or virtual machine monitor.
This process of presenting the guest with virtualized simulations of a controlled environment with an emulated set of hardware is called virtualization.
This helps in optimization of server space, enhance flexibility, reduce cost of maintenance also a great help in disaster recovery scenarios.
