Linux Web Hosting
Just as many of us were ready to give up on Windows and migrate over to Mac OS, we become aware that some notebooks are being sold with Linux already installed and we can't help wonder what the benefits would be if we actually learned about and / or tried Linux.
Employers are too particular whether the one they are going to hire are Linux certified because employees who are Linux certified benefits the employers as well as the company because they can assure that their Linux operating systems and networks will function and run slowly but smoothlyJust like other courses, one must pass an examination in order to become a Linux certified, and among these exams is the Red Hat or Novell examOnes a person passed this examination he or she shows that they are ready to take it on as they exist in the world of employment and workIf you want to land a good job, be a Linux certifiedWindows hosting started off with a smaller user base, but it continues to grow in popularityDespite being the more expensive option, many users are choosing it for its familiar interface and compatibility with other Microsoft productsIf your site is going to use ASP or .Net applications, a Windows server is the only way to go.
If a website is designed to be hosted on the Windows hosting platform, and later the web developer wants to convert it to be used on a Linux server, he would find a great deal of difficulty in conversionHowever, it is generally not difficult in a vise-versa situationYou may need to consider this point at the time of planning for your website or deciding between the two hosting platforms.
Without exception, there will always be modules or features that are enabled in memory hungry server software packages (such as Apache) that simply are not neededTake a look at the configuration files for Apache, and decide if you need FrontPage support, or some of the other extra modules that ship with the VPS software packagesDisabling unnecessary modules or plugins will decrease the system memory that server software such as Apache requires, which will give you more resources for the software that needs it!
