UK Web Hosting: Linux
Many UK web hosting companies allow you to host your website on a Linux server. These servers are generally bought from Linux companies like Red Hat or Suse. These companies make sure that they provide the latest and greatest updates and patches for the servers in order to compete well with Windows based solutions. Since the Apache web server is slightly harder to configure than an IIS server, Linux provides a bunch of GUIs to make the configuration of the web server easy for the user. Linux will also provide SNMP servers for easier remote management of the servers and event based notification, if some unforeseen thing happens to the server. Just like the Windows based shops, Linux based shops also worry about malware and security, although the threats on Linux are much lower than those on Windows. Still most Linux based shops will run anti-virus, firewall, etc. on their servers in order to keep the bad people at bay and keep the consumer safe and happy.
