What is Hosting and Domains

Posted on 5:36 AM by outsider

In the Internet world, there are many terms that may be difficult to comprehend. There is such thing as browsing, search engines and much more. It may be difficult for lay people to understand those terms. But this time we do not discuss the terms above. But will discuss other terms which are of course important for us to understand in this cyber world. These terms of understanding and Domain Hosting. This time I'll invite you to learn in detail what is meant Hosting and Domain. Both of these are interrelated with one another in this internet world and it is impossible to be separated. A domain that needs hosting, and vice versa.

GENERAL 

I will explain about HOSTING, because hosting has a broader meaning than the domain. In hosting the real world can be likened to "a piece of land" or "lots", which has a size in square meters (m2). As for hosting a large size in mega bytes (MB). If you have a "piece of land", you can create a building such as: houses, shops, or companies. Meanwhile, in cyberspace, if you have a "hosting", you can create a website such as: personal website, online shop website, the website company profile. So, a building in the real world is like a website in cyberspace.

Within a website, there are a variety of data in it. For example, a database (data) site. Famous sites such as Facebook, of course, has a content (content) and the database is very much at all. Of sure, must have a container (momory) for storing various data available on the Site up for it. Well, a reservoir of memory contents in up earlier is a Hosting (Memory »placeholders = Hosting). Hosting here serves as a place to hold all the data, and other content contained on the up. In broad terms, this Hosting dibaratkan as a place disclose various data and content from a website.

Hosting on the Internet varies greatly. Hosting Starting from Foreign Affairs to the Local Host. To get a hosting, we can buy it on the internet. But there also are many free webhosting we meet on the internet. Problems hosting price, depending also with a capacity of hosting space. The bigger, of course, the greater the price As this blog has a capacity of 250 MB space and unlimited Bandwidth, which I bought from Webshosting Indonesia, Stud Hosting. Issue price, if bought at Stud Hosting, principally at competitive prices.

If you already know what it is hosting, is now headed for the understanding of the DOMAIN, domain samples in a virtual world such as: www.google.com or www.jagoanhosting.com. Can you mark, pokonya beginning with "www" is a domain, or the name of the term is commonly referred to as URLs (Uniform Resource Locator) which means:
a certain standard formats, used to indicate the address of a source such as documents and images on the Internet
The purpose of a domain / URL is showing an address. So when in the real world, a building such as houses or shops must have an address like Jln. A. Yani 120 Surabaya. Well, this is likened to address in cyberspace as a domain.



IN DETAIL 

DOMAIN 

Domain name is a unique identity of a website, for easier user to access the website. By using unique words, users will be easier to recognize and memorize it, compared with the IP address that consists of a row of numbers. The naming of the alphabet is often called the Domain Name System (DNS).

In granting control, hierarchical architecture is used as follows:
Top Level Domain (TLD)
Top Level Domain is an extension of a domain and a category code of the website. TLD itself can be classified into:

Generic Top Level Domains (gTLDs), namely the extension of the global nature. Extensions that enter into the category of gTLDs are:
. Com: used for a commercial organization
. Net: used for Internet network providers
. Org: used for non-commercial organizations
. Edu: educational institutions are used to
. Gov: used for government agencies
. Miles: use for military
. Int: used for international organizations

Country Code Top Level Domains (ccTLDs), which is an extension which is devoted to a State, for example. Uk for United Kingdom,. My for Malaysia, and. Id to Indonesia. CcTLD managers in Indonesia is PANDI, which is a continuation of the "Domain Name Manager Indonesia." Extensions are entered into the category of the ccTLD in Indonesia are:
. Co.id: used for commercial websites, and similar entities

Second Level Domain (SLD)
Second Level Domain is the name of that domain, which was written before "." (Read: "dot"). For example, facebook.com is a domain with a TLD. Com and the SLD facebook.

Third Level Domain
Third Level Domain is the name before the Second Level Domain, such as domain name is owned by facebook.com, then the domain manager to make Third Level Domain, such as m.facebook.com, touch.facebook.com, and so forth. Third Level Domain is often called the "Subdomains".





HOSTING 


If you've bought a domain, then the domain if it is accessed is a blank page. In order for a domain can be filled with what we want, then we need a host to store a database, website or blog engines used, etc..

An illustration of light, a domain that the URLs of a host computer and the URLs of electricity, both supporting each other. Or another example is like a laptop with its battery. So, a website must have a domain name and hosting for the content of the website can be accessed by halayak wide.

To create a webhosting, required equipment is very expensive, therefore hadirlah various web hosting companies who can rent out space and bandwidth. Web hosting company can be found easily on the Internet, whether it be in the country webhosting webhosting or residing abroad. For now the best webhosting Indonesia in my opinion is Jagoan Hosting. Which provides 24 hour service filled with good and comfortable for clients including myself who use web hosting services at Stud Hosting. And do not forget to buy a cheap domain and hosting package available.

Rental of a peg by webhosting usually in the period by one month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and so forth. This of course differ from one another webhosting by webhosting.

Kesimpulanya, Domain and Hosting is having a very close relationship and it is impossible to separate, HHE said a word. It's true it's like hosting and domain is a house that is the address of the house. Domain that has the function of providing access senuah / address to a website or blog. While Hosting has the function of storing a database, files and the entire contents of the website or blog in it.
