WordPress website establishment Choose ECS or VM. After reading this article, you will have a conclusion. There is a big gap between virtual machines and ECS. Wei Aisi's notes explain the choice of WordPress website host in detail.
1. What is a virtual host?
The virtual host is mainly used to build a website, which is a space for storing website data. A virtual host is like a cubicle in a house. All users share an IP address (a gate), water, electricity, living room, kitchen and other public resources.
Features of virtual host:
- Easy to use, suitable for beginners
- You don't need to deploy the site building environment. You can use it after uploading the website program
- Shared resources, lack of stability.
Advantages and disadvantages of virtual host
The advantage is that it is more suitable for novice website building. The existing website environment does not need to be deployed.
The disadvantage is that you can share bandwidth and IP address (now you can bind an independent IP address). If your neighbor is relatively "busy", tossing around the website every day, repeatedly installing and uninstalling, or being attacked, then your website will also be affected. Stability is not as good as ECS.
2. What is ECS?
ECS is an easy to use, highly effective, secure, reliable, and elastically scalable cloud computing service. Unlike traditional servers, which waste a lot of resources, ECS can quickly configure ECS and deploy applications according to business needs in a short time, greatly reducing operation and maintenance costs and improving operation and maintenance efficiency. Let users focus on their own business.
ECS features
- Configuration can be elastically scaled on demand
- No need to purchase a large number of machines, ready to use and quickly deploy business
- Don't worry about being affected by "bad neighbors"
It is easier to build stations with pagoda panels.
Advantages and disadvantages of ECS
- Website access speed is faster than virtual host
- Usage configuration: The virtual host has already configured the environment, and users can directly create a site. ECS requires users to deploy their own website environment,
- Stability: virtual machine is not as stable as ECS
- Suitable for people: virtual host is simple and easy to use, suitable for novice website building. ECS can be flexibly adjusted as required, suitable for individual webmasters and enterprises who understand technology
3. Virtual host or ECS?
Our personal webmasters often make troubles with WordPress websites, install test themes, plug-ins, etc., so we recommend using ECS, which is more convenient and easy to use. In addition, the price of the domestic ECS 1 core 2G memory configuration is less than 100 yuan, and it can be used for building a website.
