Hosted or dedicated server
|

I'm expecting to be using alot of bandwidth by the end of the year, so
I'm considering having a dedicated server ... perhaps maintaining it
myself. Is this difficult for someone who's not primarily a sysadmin?
Any advice from anyone?

| Marilyn,
I'm no sysadmin myself, and I've been using FlashComm since it was a
baby--on both Linux and MS servers. I've developed apps using all
different features of FCS and now FMS2, and once the server is set
up, it's a piece of cake. There's a bit more involved if you want to
customize the vhost and a few other tricks, but they're all in the
docs. Also, you'll have to work in multiple licenses, if you're going
to be working with a lot of BW and CCs.
The most trouble I've had has been with clients who have had a
service with policies that wouldn't let me add certain features.
However, since I've only worked with one license and server at a
time, others on this list might have more wisdom on this subject for
larger systems with high BW and/or CC use.
HTH,
Bill

| Hi Marilyn,
Setting up and maintaining a FMS2 server isn't really difficult when using
for a single project (not configuring tens or hunderds of vhosts). Most
things are documented and FMS2 is designed to keep it simple with
maintanance. FCS1.5 to FMS2 is a great step with servermanagement. Stacking
licenses is easy, until you need an Edge/Origin solution which is a some
more harder to install and maintain. From that point you might need
assistance. Sometimes it is easier (and cheaper) to host your application
with a company that delivers FMS2-hosting, especially if it is short-term.
Kind regards,
