Managed Hosting vs. Self-Managed: Which is Right for Your Business?

Choosing the right hosting solution is critical to the success of your business. Whether you are hosting a website to maintain online brand presence, or even if e-commerce forms the core of your business model, you will need a reliable hosting that helps you achieve your business goals.

In addition to choosing the right service provider, you’ll need to determine whether you need a managed hosting solution. With fully managed servers you can get access to the technology you need, even if you don’t have the technical know-how to install and maintain your own server.

If you’re confused about the differences between managed servers and their self-managed counterparts, then this simple guide will help you to make the right decision for your business.

Managed WordPress Hosting

Due to its flexibility, reliability, and extensive plugin support, WordPress is the most popular content management system (CMS) available today. The user-friendly interface of WordPress is one of the reasons why it has dominated the CMS market, but that ease of use does not translate to server installation, setup, and maintenance.

HostRound Launches Managed SSD VPS Hosting Service in 2018

VPS hosting is the latest addition to our product lineup, offering an excellent alternative for anyone that needs a light, moderate or even intensive traffic solution.

Reliable hosting solutions should be affordable for businesses that want to establish an online presence and remain competitive. At HostRound, we’ve invested heavily in new technologies and infrastructure that allow us to offer affordable hosting packages that free you from storage, speed, and feature constraints.

Why Choose a VPS Hosting Solution?

VPS (Virtual Private Server) hosting allows for a virtually isolated machine that can be accessed and configured as if it were a standalone resource. HostRound makes the VPS even more attractive by using Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) infrastructure. The benefit of this technology is that KVM provides real virtualization where allocated resources are not shared between different virtual servers on the same hardware (Server). The result is faster and more reliable performance, without slowdowns that can be caused by overprovisioning. VPS provides full control over your hosting environment with root access and much more power than shared hosting, so you can install any software you want and host projects of any size.

Intel Xeon Processing Power with Kernel-Based Virtualization

Processing power matters with any server hosting solution, and at HostRound we use some of the most powerful Intel Xeon server processors to provide you with maximum speed and efficiency.

Intel’s E5 server CPU’s are utilized, with the E5-1650 v4 being the most commonly found in HostRound’s servers. These CPU’s are built on 14nm technology which improves efficiency without sacrificing performance. 6 cores / 12 threads, 15MB of SmartCache and a maximum turbo frequency of 4.0GHz per core makes these CPU’s perfect for a virtual private server environment.
