Can anyone answer me where should I host my server ? Is newly found Indian Data Center a better option or I should still trust US Data Centre?

My Dedicated server would generate traffic from all over the world ?

Dear apc2010,

It’s a very tricky question, but first I would like to draw your attention on the factors which can help you to consider which service provider is more appropriate to host your dedicated server:

• Fully Managed Dedicated Servers: Must ensure that dedicated servers from that hosting company are fully managed. It means they’ll be responsible for 24×7 performance monitoring, network availability, applying security / OS / app updates, server hardware, weekly back-ups, software and other applications installation and troubleshooting.

• Privacy and Security: Unlike shared hosting or virtual private servers your dedicated server is having dedicated resources which make it secure. For more enhanced security make sure your service provider is using best firewalls to protect your dedicated server from hackers or spammers. Also ensure the physical security of the data center.

• Optimum Resources: In a most common scenario a dedicated server hosting is availed when we are much dependent on our server and cannot face any downtime. So, you need to make sure your server get dedicated RAM, bandwidth, disk space and IP address exclusively for your website.

• Scalability: Your hosting provider allows you to upgrade or downgrade your configuration as per changes in your requirement.

• Control: Your service provider gives you a complete access to your dedicated machine. You also have your full control on your operating system, software and hardware resources.

Now, Indian and US based data centers both are offering almost similar type of featured services. However, as per statistics outsourcing dedicated server hosting in India is considerably more economical than US based data centers which gives it a revolutionary advantage. Also as an outsourcing market, India evolved as a much reliable place than rest of the other countries.

So I can say that, “You can trust Indian data center instead of US based data center to host your dedicated server”.
