Dedicated Servers

By Ganesh Chovorick

A dedicated server is a powerful computer that is used solely as a network server; in other words, a single computer in a network reserved for network needs. It refers to the rental and exclusive use of a computer and it provides services for only one account or domain name. A dedicated server is therefore solely for use by one organization, and is leased and stored in the data centre of the host company. Read Wikipedia's article about dedicated hosting for more information.

A dedicated server includes an operating system (mostly some variants of Linux or Windows) a Web server, related software (such as a SQL server, Control Panel and much more) and connection to the Internet, housed in the Web hosting company's premises. It is typically required for a Web site or a group of related company sites that may develop a substantial amount of traffic. The server can usually be configured and operated remotely from the client company and you can customize the server to your own needs. It can be assigned to function only as a resource server and cannot be used as a client. The server is owned by the web host and you don't have physical access to the server.

A dedicated web hosting is beneficial while developing a complex business or a high-end e-commerce site as you will need more space and security - a web server dedicated to your business. It is purchased by a company when they want more control of their server. They purchase or rent the hardware from the hosting company who then normally support and manage it. Internet connectivity is provided to the server, in many cases over 10 or 100 Mbit/s Ethernet.

Dedicated servers are most often housed in data centres, similar to co-location facilities, providing redundant power sources and HVAC systems. You do not need a large initial investment to set it up.

Forex Trading - Use Discipline or Use Emotions?

By Richard U. Olson

If you are involved in the investment world, you probably know that there are two things that make most people do whatever it is that they do, whatever moves they make, in the investment market. Those two things are fear and greed - two of the strongest and most basic of all human emotions. Sometimes, fear can turn into panic. Sometimes, greed can turn into extreme, foolish risk taking. Successful Forex traders are not governed by these strong emotions, however.

Managed Forex trading is utilized by profitable Forex traders, such as those methods based on mathematical algorithms as well as other resourceful Forex trading strategies. The automated Forex trading system and trading software are very useful. They may also use a Forex expert advisor for guidance in buying, selling, stop-loss decisions and setting their trading parameters.

Nevertheless, successful Forex traders are not acting or reacting on their emotions. They do not like taking a loss and their desire creates greed. They do however; consider the momentary losses and the strokes of increased profits. If they think their feelings will cause a negative action, they simply ignore their feelings.

No matter what sort of dire financial news comes out that day, no matter what sort of day you've had, you should not let these factors make your investment decisions for you. Stay to a carefully thought out Forex trading strategy and try to discount your emotional response to market movements.

Self-discipline is key to being successful in Forex trading. You risk losing a lot of potential profit by allowing your emotions to take hold and dictate the investments that you make. Fear may cause you to place a stop-loss when doing so will actually cost you money or take your profits and run when you could have made far more money by allowing your investment to run its course. By the same token, greed can lead to irrational exuberance and lead you to lose a lot of money by making unwise decisions about your trades.

Any successful Forex trading strategy should be based on proven strategies which are known to work and are based on the historical patterns of the market.

You see, successful traders are actually taking advantage of the sheeple. They profit on movements in the Forex market that result from other people's irrational exuberance or panic.

Sticking to your investment strategy in the Forex market is perhaps most easily accomplished by using automated Forex trading software. This software will use mathematical modeling to predict market movements based on past behavior and can keep you focus on your investment goals without the risks posed by emotionally based investing.

Your next step is finding a locale and a number for your fax. Many have numbers that are free toll calls. If not, you will have to choose an area code. There are some companies that will allow you to choose your own number (one that is meaningful to you) for a charge. This is just an option and if you prefer to choose a number from the choices you are given it will do the same thing. When receiving a fax it will come to the number you choose and into your inbox in your email. Then do whatever you want to do with it. Add to that the faxes you send will show this number as the sending number.

Number three is to fill out the forms they require you to fill out to get the service. The form is a basic form and by filling it out and you can have a bonus of an account that faxes online.

That's it. You are all set up and you can start sending and receiving faxes by email right away. You will now receive your faxes in your inbox. You can also send faxes from your email. You will be sent exact instructions by the provider you chose explaining how to fax online. Remember - it's just like sending an email with an attachment.
