Why are server logs necessary?

Server logs are records of what is happening on a server. They contain information about all events occurring on the server, including user requests, server errors, security events, performance and configuration information, and more. These logs serve many different purposes, and in this article, we will explore how they can be used and how they can help us.

Logs (log files) are files containing system information about the operation of a server or computer, in which information about a request is recorded, including the user's IP address, time of the request, requested resource, and response code.

10 Advantages of KVM Virtualization You Need to Know.

Today, no hosting service provider can do without virtualization. Indeed, in recent years, this technology has expanded its boundaries beyond the IT sphere, as it can significantly increase the efficiency of equipment use, reduce maintenance costs and improve overall system flexibility.

In this article, we will consider the main aspects of servers on KVM virtualization, its advantages and applications in the modern world. We will also talk about the technologies used to manage resources and ensure system security.

Among the most popular hardware virtualization technologies for VPS are KVM, VMware, Hyper-V, Xen, and others. All of these hypervisors allow multiple virtual machines to run on a physical server, using the hardware capabilities of the processor to efficiently divide resources between virtual machines.

Each of them has its pros and cons, but KVM is considered one of the most effective and flexible options. For example, the Hyper-V hypervisor, developed by Microsoft, was created to run Windows OS VPS, while KVM supports a wide range of guest operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Solaris, and others, making it more flexible and universal.

KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) virtualization is a Linux kernel-level virtualization technology that allows you to create virtual machines based on the resources of a physical server.

KVM virtualization servers are suitable for a wide range of users, from individual users to large enterprises looking for the perfect virtual server deployment solution. This technology can provide high performance and security. Such servers can be used for various commercial and open source projects, running various applications such as web servers, databases, and many others.

What are the advantages of KVM based servers over servers based on other hypervisors? Among them there are:

2. Performance.
KVM operates directly with hardware, providing high performance for tasks running on virtual machines, making it ideal for high performance applications.

3. Flexibility.
KVM supports most operating systems and can run on different hardware platforms, allowing it to be used for different tasks. The ability to create multiprocessor systems allows more efficient use of processor power and improves performance.

4. Scalability.
KVM allows to easily scale virtual machines based on user needs, as well as create and maintain numerous virtual machines on a single host with different specifications (CPU, RAM and Storage), making it an attractive choice for enterprises and large companies.

5. Community and support.
With a large community of developers and users, KVM provides extensive documentation, support and development of this technology.

6. Integration with other technologies.
KVM can be integrated with other technologies, such as OpenStack, allowing it to be used in various virtualization scenarios. And thanks to integration with backup and recovery mechanisms, KVM is highly reliable.

7. Various encryption methods.
KVM can use various encryption methods to provide an additional level of security.

8. Quick virtual machine creation.
KVM allows you to quickly create and delete virtual machines, making it convenient for testing and development.

9. Storage types.
KVM allows for the use of various storage types, including local disks, network storage, and SAN and NAS-based storage.

10. LIVE MIGRATION support.
KVM allows migration of virtual machines from physical servers without downtime, which provides higher availability and ease of management.

Predicting your questions about other hypervisors, the answer is: the choice of virtualization depends on specific needs and tasks. If you need high performance and flexibility, security and scalability, as well as availability and low cost, KVM based VPS Netherlands from LLHOST INC. is the ideal choice.

In addition, now you can take advantage of a -15% discount for 3 months of the monthly billing cycle. Enter promo code KVMVPS15 in a special field when choosing any VPS Netherlands plan.

A day in history: the advent of the WWW.

Today, the internet has become an essential part of our lives, facilitating communication with friends and family, information searching, shopping, education, entertainment, and of course, business. Thanks to the internet, companies can find customers from anywhere in the world, providing small businesses with the same opportunities as large corporations in the market.

Let's go back to the beginning of March 1989. 34 years ago, English scientist Tim Berners-Lee and his colleagues from the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, presented a global hypertext project called the World Wide Web (WWW). To implement it, Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs), the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), and the HyperText Markup Language (HTML) were invented, which became the foundation of WWW. Later, the technical specifications of these standards were improved and presented to users. Nevertheless, 1989 is still officially recognized as the birth year of the World Wide Web.

Initially, the World Wide Web served as a communication tool between CERN employees. In the 1990s, the internet became available to a wider audience through the first browsers: Mosaic, Netscape, and Internet Explorer. However, most users primarily used it for email exchange and communication on forums, since the internet library at that time could not boast modern volumes of information.

The development of internet technologies in recent decades has given us social networks, messengers, audio and video platforms, streaming services, AI technologies, and we can hardly imagine our lives without them. Like any technology, the World Wide Web will continue to evolve and change in the future.

The factors that will determine internet trends are:

‣ Growth in devices with the internet connection: it creates new opportunities for communication and interaction with other people and technologies.

‣ Artificial intelligence and augmented reality: already widely used in various fields and will be directed towards improving the user experience on the internet.

‣ Improvement in internet speed and availability: for example, 5G internet guarantees higher data transfer speeds and lower latency, allowing for full use of virtual reality and autonomous vehicles.

‣ Development of "smart" devices (IoT): in the future, IoT devices will be connected in a global network to create smarter and more efficient systems.

‣ Cybersecurity: with the growth in the number of devices connected to the internet, cybersecurity becomes increasingly important and leads to the development of new technologies and methods for protecting information from cyber attacks.

‣ Data privacy: technologies for protecting user privacy and legislative control over the collection and use of personal data will be strengthened.

For LLHOST INC., it is important to stay up to date with the latest technological trends and provide the highest level of security for our users. We are proud to use modern equipment and constantly improve our technologies to guarantee high-quality service. We also remind you that the spring discount of -40% on any VPS Netherlands plan, is still valid until March 31, 2023.*

DOS attack and DDoS attack: are they the same thing?

Attacks on computer systems and networks have become a common occurrence in the modern world. According to Infosecurity Magazine, a journal on information security, the number of DDoS attacks in 2022 increased by 74% annually. The most vulnerable sectors were: fintech industry (34%), telecommunications (26%), and e-commerce (17%). Microsoft recorded an average of 1435 attacks per day, with the highest number of attacks in a single day being recorded on September 22, 2022, with 2215 attacks.

The two most common types of attacks are DoS and DDoS, aimed at overloading a system and causing it to fail. Let's understand the essence of these concepts and what security measures can be taken.

DoS (Denial of Service) attack is a type of attack on a computer system in which an attacker tries to disrupt the service of the system or service. Various techniques are used, such as sending a large number of requests or data packets to the system, overloading its resources, and exploiting vulnerabilities in software. DoS attacks can be launched from one computer or several located in the same network.

DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is a more complex and common type of attack that uses so-called botnets - a group of computers or devices infected with malicious software to simultaneously launch an attack on the target system or service. The ability to distribute the load across multiple computers makes DDoS attacks more effective and difficult to detect and stop, and devices can be used without the knowledge of their owners.

Thus, the main difference between DOS and DDoS attacks is that a DOS attack is launched from a single computer or a few computers within the same network, while a DDoS attack uses a group of computers located in different places.

DDoS attacks can be classified as L3-L4 (network and transport layers) and L7 (application layer). L3 and L4 DDoS attacks are aimed at overloading network resources such as network bandwidth, routers, switches, and other network devices, as well as fraudulent purposes such as extortion.

VPS Netherlands from LLHOST INC. include L3-L4 DDoS attack protection systems that operate at the network protocol level. These systems are capable of processing a large volume of traffic and quickly responding to attacks to prevent service disruptions. To do this, they use traffic filtering methods such as connection throttling or blocking certain IP addresses to prevent network overload.

To protect from DDoS attacks directed against VPS Netherlands, LLHOST INC. employs the following methods:

1. Using specialized software to detect and block attacks.
2. Regularly updating the software used on network devices and servers.
3. Increasing network bandwidth to provide greater resilience to DDoS attacks.
4. Using cloud resources to distribute the load and ensure high service availability.

Until March 31, 2023, you can get any of VPS Netherlands plans for 6 months with a -40% discount when choosing monthly billing cycle.

How to Improve VPS Performance: Tips from Experts.

Virtual private servers (VPS) are an excellent solution for many projects today. However, like any other server, a VPS requires a certain level of performance to ensure fast and reliable operation. There are many ways to optimize a web server. In this article, we will provide some tips from our experts on how to improve VPS performance.

Operating system update.
The first step to improve VPS performance is to update the operating system. This will help improve security and fix any version errors. In addition, timely updates contribute to optimizing server speed.

Software update.
New versions of software can also increase VPS performance and fix bugs that slow down the server. Make sure you are using the latest software versions.

Server settings optimization.
The third tip for improving VPS performance is to optimize your server settings. For example, a server could be software that manages requests to your website and delivers content to users. By setting optimal configuration settings such as memory settings, processor settings, network settings, etc., you can improve website loading speed and reduce server load. These settings can be done through the server's control panel, or may require changes to configuration files and operating system settings.

Software monitoring.
Each project requires different software for its implementation and operation. Too many applications installed on your VPS can lead to increased server load and decreased performance. Depending on the needs of your project and VPS capacity, you can scale your server, which will lead to efficient use of its resources.

VPS scaling.
VPS capacity also affects the performance of your server. Based on data on the volume of resources used by your projects, you can increase, for example, CPU, RAM, storage for your virtual server to ensure optimal performance.

Using caching.
Caching can significantly reduce the number of database requests, which will reduce the load on the VPS and speed up applications, especially with repeated requests. Caching can be implemented at the application level or using special software tools.

Database optimization.
The database is an extremely important part of your project and can be a source of performance issues, especially if it contains a lot of data or is used inefficiently. There are several ways to optimize the database, including indexing, cleaning the database of unused data, and optimizing queries. These actions will help speed up data access and reduce request execution time.

Performance tracking.
We recommend installing one of the server performance monitoring tools and regularly tracking the performance of your server in order to quickly identify issues and take appropriate measures to improve its performance

These are just some of the additional actions you can take to improve the performance of your VPS. All of them can be used depending on the specific situation and requirements of your project. It is important to understand that each virtual server is unique and requires an individual approach to optimize performance.

How to choose VPS configuration? Beginners guide.

As businesses and individuals turn to virtual private servers (VPS) for web hosting, it's essential to select the ideal VPS configuration to cater to specific tasks. With numerous options available, determining the perfect balance between performance and cost can be challenging. Here's a concise guide to help you choose the right VPS configuration tailored to your needs.

Understanding Your VPS Requirements
Before diving into VPS configurations, evaluate your specific needs, including:

Purpose: Are you hosting a website, running a database server, or developing a custom application?
Traffic: Will your VPS handle high traffic or a smaller audience?
Scalability: Does your project require the flexibility to expand or contract resources quickly?
Budget: What is your spending limit for a VPS solution?

Considering these factors, let's explore VPS configuration options for various tasks.

For Basic Websites and Blogs
If you're hosting a small-to-medium-sized website or blog with modest traffic, a cost-effective VPS configuration would include:

1-2 vCPUs (virtual CPUs)
2-4 GB RAM
20-40 GB SSD storage

This configuration allows you to manage your website smoothly, without incurring excessive expenses.

For eCommerce Websites and Web Applications
For online stores and complex web applications with higher traffic and increased demands, a more robust VPS configuration is necessary. Aim for:

2-4 vCPUs
4-8 GB RAM
40-80 GB SSD storage

This setup ensures faster load times and a seamless user experience, which are vital for retaining customers and increasing conversions.

For Database Servers and Custom Applications
If you're running a database server or developing custom applications with resource-intensive workloads, choose a powerful VPS configuration, such as:

4-8 vCPUs
8-16 GB RAM
80-160 GB SSD storage

This configuration provides enhanced performance for demanding tasks, ensuring your applications run efficiently and without hiccups.

Scalability and Bursty Traffic
Scalability is a crucial consideration for projects with unpredictable or fluctuating traffic. Opt for a VPS provider that allows you to scale your resources up or down quickly, ensuring optimal performance during peak times without overspending during quieter periods.

Managed vs. Unmanaged VPS
Another aspect to consider is whether you prefer a managed or unmanaged VPS. With a managed VPS, the provider takes care of server maintenance, updates, and security. This option is ideal for those with limited technical expertise or time constraints. In contrast, an unmanaged VPS offers more control and customization but requires advanced technical knowledge to manage and maintain the server.

To help you make the most out of your virtual hosting experience, LLHOST INC. is excited to offer a special 20% discount for 3 months on our VPS Netherlands products! This promotion is applicable to monthly billing periods and is valid until the 21st of April, 2023.Don't miss this opportunity to get the best VPS configuration tailored to your needs at a reduced price.

Whether you're hosting a website, running a database server, or building custom applications, our VPS Netherlands services provide the perfect balance between performance and affordability. Take advantage of this limited-time offer and let LLHOST INC. support your online endeavors with unparalleled reliability and efficiency.

3. Preparing Your VPS for File Storage
After selecting a VPS provider, follow these steps to configure your virtual server for file storage:

• Sign up for a VPS plan that suits your storage needs and budget.
• Install your preferred operating system (OS) on your VPS, like Linux or Windows.
• Update your OS and install necessary security patches for a secure environment.
