To ask about the difference between the web space and the server on the site, we must first talk about what the two are and what the difference is.
1. In terms of IP, servers are generally independent IP, and most of the space is shared IP is a virtual area shared on the server.
2. In terms of resources, the server can be understood as an independent computer that can be remotely logged in. It has hard disk, memory, bandwidth, etc. The resources are exclusive, and the space is a part of it that can only be uploaded to a specific area through FTP Here, all hardware, network, and IP are a shared part.
Simply put, the server contains space, and space is only part of the server. With this comparison, we can also know the difference in the site. Generally, the space is sufficient for small and micro sites. If it is a large, medium-sized website, right If the traffic and speed requirements are particularly high, then a server is needed. There is another kind between these two is the self-built website of Alibaba Cloud Express Beauty Station , which integrates Alibaba Cloud Server (ECS) , Load Balancing (SLB) , Cloud Database (RDS) , Object Storage (OSS) , Network Acceleration (CDN) ) , Cloud Shield security services and other products to ensure that the website is faster, more stable and safer. The price is only 500 up, so there is a feeling of enjoying the quality of the server with the cost of space.
