Molo Hosting

Molo hosting is a term frequently used is within data centres by the professionals, whom reside within; Molo hosting its self refers to using dedicated servers in multiple locations both within the same data centre and at other geographical locations to spread the data for a single or network of websites.

The term was first aired outside of the realms of a data centre apparently by a gentleman by the name of "Kevin Abrahams" of DedicatedNOW.

The advantage of Molo hosting is most noticeable when a website has high traffic and a single server even with a dedicated 100mb connection would struggle to serve every page to every visitor at optimal performance; this is where Molo hosting shines. By spreading the data across multiple servers with different connections and using different resources such as ram and hard drive space, every visitor can appreciate a single website regardless of the traffic figures.

At this point many novices would think if their website starts to receive high traffic that must switch to Molo hosting, this is not very often the case, in fact there are only a small percentage of the websites today that actually require Molo hosting at all.

Sites that would be expected to use Molo hosting would include sites such as Twitter and the BBC.

As many Twitter users will know; twitter's own success was its biggest downfall in the early days because their servers were going down so often it made using the site a nightmare. Eventually Twitter must have spread their load and visitor traffic across many different locations to cope with the 1000's of daily users that they have on their site.

Due to the fact that Molo hosting is a relative new term used in the world of hosting, many hosting providers will not have adapted their hosting packages to accommodate customers seeking it as a hosting option. Please understand if there are no hosts featured on this particular page on hosting reviews, this will change as more and more hosts understand the terminology and build the service into their current host offering.
