Dedicated Servers or Managed Dedicated Servers is a type of Internet Hosting where the client leases an entire Server not shared with anyone. This is more flexible than Shared Hosting, as organizations have full control over the server(s), including choice of operating system, hardware, etc.
Dedicated Severs usually are used for extensive Web Sites which serve too many online visitors at once. Mail Servers, Virtual Universities or extensive ECommerce Web Sites are samples of Dedicated Server usages.Dedicated Servers provide huge Web Space and BandWidth.
If server is physically located in administration area of Web Site, it is called Co-Location Server.
When a physical Server is devided to multiple Virtual Servers we will have several Virtual Private Servers(VPS). These Servers can provide greater control and performance than a Shared Hosting account. They come with exactly the same features, autonomy and functionality of a Dedicated Server, and are suitable for a wide range of tasks such as application testing/development, Domain and Hosting Resellery, high traffic Web Sites or game serving.
