A dedicated server runs round the clock with your choice of hardware and software

Why is Xeon dedicated server one of the best needs for your web service needs? Simple,Xeon dedicated server for your web needs Articles this just seems to be catering to all the needs that one might have for their web servers. Some of the most important parameters that will be the binding ones when you choose a server are: the speed of the server, memory capacity of the server and the hard disk capacity of the server. There are also other features like the peripherals and resources that you can add to the server in case of a need and the expandability of the server when you want to either increase the speed of operation or the capacity of the machine. All these would form the core of the web server requirements any IS manager might have to face. And Xeon dedicated server meets all of them with poise. Let us see how.

The Xeon dedicated server is based on a processor that is designed to work at high clock speeds of over 2.4 GHz. This makes the Xeon processor one of the fastest processors that is available in the market. And it works at this speed with a word size of 64 bits. All this makes it faster and larger. In addition to this, you can always scale it up if you want to add more processors. Dual Xeon is the most common option on the Xeon dedicated server. This is what makes it the core of the advantages. Multiple parallel processing is built into the structure of the Xeon processor. Building clusters is also not a problem with the system and most of the server farms work with Xeon servers lined up in them. What more can one asks for in the speed of processing from a server?

Secondly, the memory that it can work with is really large. Particularly it is enlarged with the help of the large addressing capacity that the processor support, you can easily work with 2 or 4 GB of DDR memory. This large memory translates to more processes running parallel or more users logging on to the system at the same time. That is certainly one of your prime concerns. You certainly do not want your machine to deny users when they try to access you.

Thirdly, the hard disk capacities that it can hold and address exceed 250 GB and multiple hard disks. Most of the Xeon dedicated servers come with RAID hard disks for fault free operation and stand by structuring. They are also included in the normal SCSI hard disks that you might like to place in the server. On your RAID arrays you might find that the disks are duplicating the data and therefore have an internal processor which would aid in duplicating the data for you. All this would ensure that you are safe and your server is powerful enough to take charge of your server needs.

The best part of the whole story is the price. Xeon dedicated server being a proven model and more a precursor to Itanium servers, they are priced very reasonably; as a matter of fact low.
