Domain Bank Hosting packages offer you an option between Linux
or Windows platforms. We like to give our customers the choice
of the operating system on the server where they host their
domain. Both technologies can support your website equally
well, and it really comes down to personal preference, system
familiarity and your comfort level.
Linux or Microsoft… both can work for you!
LINUX
Linux is a freely-distributed operating system that was created
in 1991 by a student at the University of Helsinki in Finland.
It was created with the assistance of developers from around
the world under an open license that has since made it freely
available to everyone. Today, it is robust, reliable and very
efficient and it has repeatedly proven itself as a popular
solution for web hosting servers.
Linux uses PHP, Perl or MySQL
as languages for adding access and processing online data.
Linux is ideal for websites that display information as a brochure,
in newsletter format or as data sheets. Linux works well for
interactive display sites like inquiry forms, online purchasing
and other e-commerce functions. Site design programs like Microsoft
FrontPage® can
also be successfully used with Linux technology. In fact,
Domain Bank offers FrontPage Extensions with Linux hosting packages.
WINDOWS
As most people are aware, Microsoft is a preeminent giant
in the computing environment. Microsoft’s solution is
ideal for customers that want to use ASP (Active Server Pages)
or other Microsoft applications to design your web pages. Microsoft
hosting also offers an advantage if you wish to incorporate
searchable databases in your website. The Microsoft platform
delivers reduced development time and better functionality
for databases.
