A day in history: the advent of the WWW.

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?
« Reply #48 on: March 17, 2023, 10:26:32 AM »


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.

Take advantage of LLHOST INC.'s offer and start your business with a reliable partner!

How to Improve VPS Performance: Tips from Experts.
« Reply #49 on: March 24, 2023, 02:16:13 PM »


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.

LLHOST INC. always strives to develop and provide its users not only modern and powerful servers, but also the necessary information related to their operation.
