Dedicated servers in India or anywhere are the most expensive server option for the online businesses. A server’s overall cost is mainly based on the cost of hardware, the operating system and application and the cost of
managing the dedicated server.
Server hardware costs vary from one vendor to another. Budget constrained businesses will find low-cost hardware that will handle almost all the tasks in the same efficient manner that you would want your business. You can manage with a low-cost hardware if you are using the server as a print machine but will require high costing hardware that is more reliable and strong to store database,
video sharing or similar type of applications.
If you are using windows operating system you will need servers made of Microsoft technologies all of which carry a license fee. Linux operating system is open source and free and so
Linux dedicated servers is less expensive than the
Windows dedicated servers. The software that comes inbuilt with the servers for the server to perform its tasks must be considered.
Server management and maintenance take away a huge amount of the
dedicated server costs. You should account for the wear and tear of hardware, replacements, human resources to monitor and service the infrastructure, software update fees and more all come with a cost.
