What type Architecture to Use?
The type of architecture you decide to use on your web server is dependent on the Operating system installed. If you are running a Linux-Based web server, you are likely to use a combination of PHP & MySQL for the application backend and if your operating is Windows, you are more than likely going to use ASP .NET and SQL. Domain Name Hosting Your domain name can be hosted at different location than your web hosting account – You just have to point your domain name to the correct DNS addresses associated with your web hosting account. If you do not own a domain name, then you’ll need to find a registrar to register your domain name with. Some well known domain registrars include GoDaddy (I am sure you have seen commercials), Network Solutions, and Yahoo. Once you register your domain name, all you have to do is add the correct DNS addresses which points to your web server.
