An evaluation of DNS-domaines

We, at atlaschateau.com, have selected 'DNS-domaines' to be our current domain and web hosting distributor. Hence we anticipate that this concise review of 'DNS-domaines' is probably going to be very helpful for other individuals from all around the Globe who are looking for domain name and web hosting services. We say individuals from all around the Globe, because the simple truth is that 'DNS-domaines' presently offers domain and hosting services in several server farm locations: in North America (Chicago, IL), in the UK (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Scandinavia (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). Thereby, embracing approximately the whole Earth. At least from the point of view of the World Wide Web. So, here is what you could anticipate from 'DNS-domaines' in short:

Shared Website Hosting Packages

The first detail we, at atlaschateau.com, have noticed is the modest prices of the shared website hosting solutions supplied by 'DNS-domaines'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is called: shared web hosting. The good news here is that the web space hosting accounts provided by 'DNS-domaines' are powered by a custom invented, cutting edge cloud web hosting platform (each web hosting service, like mail, databases, web site hosting Control Panel, storage space, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being served by an autonomous stack of web hosting servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting distributor in the World will have big problems with, because cPanel is a one-server based web space hosting platform (each web hosting service, like email, databases, site hosting Control Panel, storage space, DNS, stats, and so on, runs on one and the same hosting server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel-based hosting firms are not able to include new functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file system (they need to devise their own file platform), which is the basis of any cloud web hosting service. Let's go back to the shared site hosting packages, which are driven by a real cloud webspace hosting system. With a shared web space hosting account, each client pays solely for his/her account, thus retaining the site hosting price very low (since a lot of users are hosted on one and the same web hosting server). In a few words, a shared hosting plan, which is being served by a clustered web site hosting system, permits you to pay just for the resources that you indeed require, avoiding a scenario where you pay for a powerful site hosting package that you cannot truly utilize, or for a basic web page hosting account that cannot host your website. The ability to upgrade your account from one plan to another with just 2 clicks of the mouse gives you the flexibility to begin with a basic package and upgrade as your web page grows. That way, you economize capital that you can spend on advertising the web page while it is still novel. Each website hosting package provided by 'DNS-domaines' contains an online website building tool and over 40 widely used script software platforms among them WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will save you hundreds of dollars for web site design services. 'DNS-domaines' supplies shared hosting accounts in several different countries across the Globe. There is one data center in Chicago covering the United States of America and Canada; 2 European data center facilities - in Great Britain and in Sweden; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia-Pacific region. That way, virtually the whole planet is covered to provide you and your visitors with a stable and fast web hosting service at a preferred place. All in all, the shared hosting accounts supplied 'DNS-domaines' are really well equipped and are available at a low-cost price (beginning from $5.83 for the Starter plan).

Semi-dedicated Web Hosting Servers

To clients with little to no practice, a private virtual web server may appear troublesome to administer. That's perhaps why 'DNS-domaines' also stores semi-dedicated web servers in its main North American datacenter facility in Chicago. Administering these accounts is comparable to handling a typical shared web site hosting plan via a Control Panel interface. They have all the functionalities of a shared web site hosting package such as a free-of-charge website building tool and a web application installer, but the amount of system resources provided by a semi-dedicated server account is many times larger than that of a shared web hosting package. For example, the CPU power that can be utilized is approximately FIVE times as much as compared to the shared web hosting packages. When matched against a shared website hosting account, the number of database queries included within the semi-dedicated hosting accounts is vast: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted domain quota is a pattern as well. The semi-dedicated hosting accounts do not come with full server root access (we, at atlaschateau.com, deem this a tiny drawback), but the advantage is that they are administered through the same web page hosting CP user interface as the shared web site hosting accounts. This hints that a familiar graphical environment is accessible by all clients who do not feel confident enough to handle a Virtual Private Server, but at the same time are in need of more power and system resources than a VPS web hosting server can offer. This is so owing to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the reserves of the very same powerful top-class hosting servers as the ones which host the private virtual server web hosting accounts, however, the number of the semi-dedicated servers is very small (somewhere between 20 to 30 per physical server), whereas the VPS hosting servers can reach a much bigger number (80 to a hundred and twenty per server). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers offered by 'DNS-domaines' can be dubbed as being quite affordable (as far as cost is concerned), beginning from $20.00 for the Semi Dedicated 1 plan.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

In atlaschateau.com's opinion, large web pages such as social networks, community and corporate web portals or popular web stores with thousands of customers require a much more powerful web page hosting platform. It seems that the folks from 'DNS-domaines' have drawn the same conclusion as well. To fulfil its customers' anticipations, 'DNS-domaines' delivers a bouquet of dedicated hosting servers that can tackle millions of daily hits. That assessment is based on the hardware configurations the dedicated servers ship with: many-core processors, up to 4 gigabytes of RAM, two thousand GB of web space and Gigabit network cards will doubtlessly guarantee the quick and steady performance of any type of website. In 'DNS-domaines's opinion, the primary hardware specifications can be upgraded for more system resource-demanding websites. We, from atlaschateau.com, deem that all dedicated server configurations offered by 'DNS-domaines' are also appropriate for commencing a hosting reseller business as each and every server offers free invoice transaction software platform and a free-of-cost domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated web servers delivered by 'DNS-domaines' are all unmanaged. We, at atlaschateau.com, think that this is a minor minus, which can be corrected by paying a monthly tax which amounts to $32.00 USD. So, if you demand aid, the Managed Services upgrade offers a selection of additional services such as a routine backup, software installation, server surveillance and troubleshooting operations. A handful of site hosting CP (CP) interfaces are available with each of the dedicated web hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (atlaschateau.com's) prognosis is that the exceptional drag-and-drop File Manager available in the Hepsia hosting CP will probably render the recourse to any FTP software pointless. Our (atlaschateau.com's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers furnished by 'DNS-domaines' don't seem to be very low priced (yet the Hepsia web page hosting Control Panel and the unlimited hosted domain name quotas will no doubt make you smile), starting from $80.00 for the Xeon E3 v5 package.
