Windows V/S UNIX

[Nile Hadwards]

Web sites that are hosted on UNIX and Windows servers can be accessed universally. The difference between the two operating system lies in terms of the software they provide to server data. Windows can always provide better software services for all purposes.

In terms of reliability, UNIX is just a few steps ahead since it is known to be extremely stable and does run for years without rebooting. However, Windows can manage to meet the requirements of modern websites far better than UNIX.

Windows is used where Microsoft products are into application like, MS Access databases, ASP for delivering dynamic content, and VBScript for site enhancements. UNIX is not devised to accommodate the mentioned technologies. Therefore those who are in need of these technologies will ultimately have to depend on Windows. Moreover what UNIX provides, is already there with Windows.

If your website needs to collect its data from an Access database, a Windows server will be able to integrate this database seamlessly. While there are many database options, such as MySQL, many people prefer to use Access. A Windows server will be able to make integration much easier.

Linux is the best because from the side hosting company, it is easier to maintain, as long as you update it. But unfortunately, a lot of demands for windows, and ASP. Net

They both have their pros and cons. Choosing Unix or Windows host depends upon customer requirements,basically the difference is of ASP .net. windows gives you asp hostting unlike uinux. I prefer windows over unix because i have used windows vps and found it best i got my windows vps from

vpswebsever.com

i would say they best in vps field.
