Webhosting services?

Our teacher discussed about the web and web hosting services such as Basic Package, Mid-range Package and Large Enterprise System. I know what Basic Package is but I don%26#039;t get the difference between Mid-range Package and Large Enterprise System. The book stated samples for these two but samples are related. I surfed the web but it only shows result about hosting and other companies that offers web hosting.

If you underwent some of these terms, please differentiate Mid-range package and Large Enterprise System. I will give the 10 points to answers that satisfies the question very well plus a thumbs-up for stated examples that would surely conclude Mid-range package and Large Enterprise System different.

Webhosting services?

Those are just marketing terms that some hosts might apply to tiers of service. They might just as well use %26quot;Bronze%26quot;, %26quot;Silver%26quot; and %26quot;Gold%26quot; or %26quot;Red%26quot;, %26quot;Blue%26quot;, %26quot;Green%26quot;, %26quot;Orange%26quot;, %26quot;Yellow%26quot;, and %26quot;Purple%26quot;. However the company chooses to separate tiers of service is how they are differentiated.

If your examples are not clearly separated then those examples are simply not clearly separated. That has nothing to do with the hosting industry at large.

Some hosts might consider %26quot;Large Enterprise System%26quot; to be 1gb of storage space, 20gb of monthly data transfer and 500 e-mail boxes for $50/month. Others might differ.

In my opinion, any time the word %26quot;Enterprise%26quot; is used, it should refer to such a large scale as to simply be impractical for small or mid-sized businesses. For hosting, this would be multiple load-balanced multi-processor servers with a dedicated optical internet connection. The company I currently work for hosts their primary website on a farm of approxmiately 700 Xeon quad-cpu servers. That would be %26quot;enterprise%26quot;. One of the last companies I worked for ran their primary website on two load-balanced dual-cpu servers. I%26#039;d consider that to be %26quot;mid-sized.%26quot;

Other Replys:this may be an over-simplified answer but they offer more with an enterprise package, it%26#039;s a corporation vs a local business. 200 employees vs 50. more e-mail addresses, more web space, etc.

each internet service provider has different offerings to fit the business they are selling to. here is an example site:

this site ( http://www.webhostinglogic.com/support/f... ) explains the difference maybe better than I can:

An enterprise host is made for those companies who need to move very quickly and get a lot of traffic. While there are different levels of enterprise host it is possible a smaller company might find an enterprise level host useful in that an enterprise level host usually has the ability to package many different items together to give a cost savings. The things they might package together are security patching of the server, monitoring the servers load, doing maintenance on the server, monitoring of specific applications, and possibly a list of other things that might cost the owner of the company a good amount of money. By outsourcing these services it could end up saving the smaller company, along with a large company as well, a lot of money and time. Your E-commerce site certainly needs an enterprise host if you are a fast growing company that requires the ability to scale and requires that you get the best service and uptime possible. If you web site is the major source of income then having your site up and responding to users/clients needs 100% of the time is certainly required. In this case an enterprise host is what you will want.
