First Hire What should the server consider? Micronet found that many enterprises are making websites for the first time, and many people have no experience in server leasing. This is really a vexing thing. Server leasing can be said to be both troublesome and simple. As long as you are more considerate when choosing servers, you can rent satisfactory servers. To achieve this goal, Micronet has summarized eight golden rules to consider when renting a server. I believe that after reading them, you will dare to make a bold choice even if you have never rented a server.
The eight golden rules for selecting servers are:
1、 Server type: servers can be divided into high protection servers, station cluster (multi IP) servers, physical servers, virtual machine servers, etc. Application scenarios vary according to the server type. If you pay more attention to scalability, it is recommended that you choose a virtual machine server; If you need higher independence and stability, we recommend that you choose a physical server; If there are other needs, it is recommended that you select the corresponding special server.
2、 Network nodes: server rooms in different countries/regions are called different nodes. Different nodes have different resource gradients, which will lead to different server prices. For example, the bandwidth in the United States is rich in IP resources and the price is cheap. However, when selecting nodes, the problem of delay should be taken into account, because if the nodes are too far away, high delay will occur.
3、 Server configuration: The hardware configuration of the server includes CPU, memory, hard disk, etc. When selecting, refer to the program on the website. The standard of sufficient performance should be met, and the configuration with too high performance should not be selected to avoid wasting performance and increasing server investment.
4、 Network bandwidth: Bandwidth is divided into local bandwidth and international bandwidth. If other countries want to access server nodes, they should use international bandwidth; Bandwidth is also divided into private bandwidth and shared bandwidth. For websites, traffic is king, but if the bandwidth is not enough, traffic will be limited, so bandwidth is the bottom line. Try to reach the standard of sufficient use at peak hours without delaying packet loss.
5、 Selection of network lines: some nodes also have special lines, such as BGP line, CN2 line, etc. The so-called BGP means that multiple network operators can access the network at the same time. Through BGP protocol interconnection, they can also automatically select the best route, which can greatly reduce the delay; The CN2 line launched by China Telecom, such as the CN2 line in Hong Kong, can enable mainland users to reach Hong Kong servers faster.
6、 Observation on the location of computer rooms: some IDC service providers' servers are placed in the data center, while others are placed in their own computer rooms, which leads to different environments in each computer room. Even different computer rooms in the same computer room may have different situations, so it is also important to select a server room. The best way is to test more, Then select the famous data center machine room.
7、 Consideration of service quality: service is the primary condition for selecting servers. Whether it is pre-sales service or after-sales service, it is particularly important to see whether the service is reliable and timely. If you are not sure how to choose a server, a reliable service team will carefully select the most suitable server for you from a professional perspective, rather than just driving up profits, and the whole process is handled very quickly, thus saving your valuable time; In addition, after-sales service is the most critical. If your server has any problem that is difficult to solve, a reliable service team will help you eliminate the problem in the shortest time and reduce business losses.
9、 Operating system adaptation: Most servers support Linux and Windows operating systems, but it is not excluded that some servers only support one side, so when making a selection, don't forget to ask them whether they support the operating system you are accustomed to.
At the end, Micronet reminds everyone: when choosing servers, don't blindly pursue the so-called cost performance ratio. If you blindly pursue the cost performance ratio, it is easy to fall into the wrong zone of purchasing, because most people pursue the cost performance ratio, ignoring the service, computer room and other factors that are difficult to show in the short term, which is extremely detrimental to the use of subsequent servers, There will be many uncertain hidden dangers. Therefore, it is enough to forget the cost performance ratio, meet your use needs, and have a safe and comfortable use environment!
