Now many small and medium enterprises and business groups need to build your own website, for technical, human and cost issues, the server generally does not own to protect, are paid a fee by a professional organization to manage and maintain server hosting, but they managed operators are generally the customer's server is placed in the IDC (Internet Data Center) room of the standard cabinet, care by hand to ensure the normal operation of the server, so customers need to spend the budget is the purchase cost plus the server hosting costs.
Time custody fee is calculated based on managed time (calculated on a monthly basis all year), network conditions (exclusive bandwidth, much more expensive than the shared bandwidth), server cabinets occupy the high (1U, 2U, 4U and other charges with the height increments) to develop these factors.
In fact, consider that many users do not understand the server, choose their own difficulties, many agencies have also launched IDC rental services, provided by the server operator is not placed properly, operators depending on the server's hardware configuration to have a basic managed to charge the cost to develop, lease a server that users must only pay the rental fee can, and do not need to consider purchasing a server problem, In addition, some carriers also charge customers according to their promise to change the server configuration, it would still be considered.
Of course, this way if the server is sharing the cost to the rental cost inside, so the price of leasing a server hosting a similar configuration than the price of the server a lot more expensive, but most users do not like about themselves server hardware matching problem, so leasing is a way.
Most operators now also launched a server to send certain period of time property rental business, for example, send the expiry of property rights. This measure is indeed very attractive, but also have the inside story:
First, operators can send property rights as a reason to charge higher lease costs; addition, IT product development out fast, a server serving two years, performance has not keep up with the mainstream, operators keep this configuration of the product re- is unlikely to rent out, and why they are sent to customers to oblige.
So, if you are a carrier, where lease a server for two years, eventually buying almost equivalent to its own while hosting a server for two years.
The cost of two schemes is similar, but the rental property is more suitable for general delivery customers. In fact, regardless of their own choosing and then go directly managed or lease, there is not a small market, different customers have different needs, everyone according to their specific situation to choose on the line.
