Web Hosting: Overview

Ubiquity Web Hosting

The world of web hosting can quickly become confusing for the average person seeking only to run a website. We'll break down the ambiguous and often confusing terminology of the internet here. If after reading this page you still have questions about what type of web hosting is ideal for your web site - please don't hestitate to contact us. At Ubiquity we are all about simplifying the world of hosting so that you can focus on what's truely the most important factor in the equation here- your web site.

Please consult the descriptions below for a brief summary of all types of web hosting that we offer.

Shared Hosting

Shared web hosting plans from Ubiquity are the standard method for starting a new website, and is really ideal for most websites. Sign up for shared web hosting if you are just starting a new and simple website. Our shared hosting offering, what we've termed as the ShinySite™ plan, relies on the InterWorx control panel, providing a solid foundational web based control panel. Shared Linux web hosting is the perfect medium for an inexpensive way to get a personal or small business website up and off the ground, as costs are drastically reduced through open source technology's lack of licensing fees, and the efficiencies which come from sites sharing a common server environment.

Professional Hosting

Professional web hostingservices are similar to our standard shared web hosting services, with a few important distinctions. First, the professional plan, or what we call our ActiveApp™ offering, from Ubiquity provides support for a wide variety of uncommonly supported technologies. These technologies include Ruby on Rails, Java, PEAR Libraries, and PostGreSQL. Ubiquity's professional web hosting environment is designed specifically for developers of new and emerging technologies, and will always have a commitment to supporting the current and future cutting-edge web technologies. Alternatively, professional web hosting is not for everyone - and in the interest of not interfering with current and future emerging technologies, the other 'non-developer' features (ie. dense statistics, script installers) are absent from our professional web hosting environment.

Reseller Hosting

Reseller web hosting allows you to start your own web hosting company while we do all the work. Reseller accounts give you the authority to manage sub-user accounts and unlimited domains while you determine how to partition out your services. Reseller customers have full control over account creation, modification, and deletion, and are given authority over all clients which operate beneath their account. The reseller hosting environment comes loaded with all of the features in our shared hosting environment - giving your product dozens of unique and powerful advantages unseen by most of your competition in the web hosting industry.

Managed VPS

Virtual private servers work much like a cross between shared web hosting and a dedicated server. Virtual private servers (or VPS) are an isolated partition of a physical server (often referred to as a 'Virtual Machine'). Each VPS solution runs it's own isolated operating system, control panel, and other tools, and provides added privacy over our shared plans. It's worth mentioning that a VPS is not necessarily "the step above" shared web hosting as it's commonly confused as - a virtual private server still shares the same server with many other virtual private servers and is not a logical step if your site is simply requiring added performance. This misconception comes from the notion that most hosts oversell system resources - which means isolating resources to just a given site would increase performance. As we so strongly advocate - this logic is simply untrue at Ubiquity.

Managed Dedicated Servers

A dedicated server is exactly as the name implies - an entire piece of server hardware in one of our data centers devoted entirely to your website(s). Therefore, our dedicated server offering is the most powerful plan we offer eliciting high-performance capability and a potential for serious website development. Unlike most dedicated server providers, Ubiquity Hosting Solutions provides fully managed web hosting services on all dedicated servers here, which takes care of all of the systems administration work you would typically expect from a shared environment inclusive to all managed dedicated servers available on this website.
