Linux Vs Windows Dedicated Web Server?

Windows and Linux Dedicated hosting are the two options available for businesses when they want to use a hosting service. While both have their own benefits and disadvantages, the biggest difference is the core operating system (OS). Linux uses the Linux kernel form which is free to use. You will have to pay a licensing fee to use Windows. There are a number of open-source Linux applications available on the web while the options are limited when it comes to Windows Dedicated Server Hosting. It offers limited number of apps but they all come from licensed providers. Linux is the preferred choice of web developers, while Windows is often used to serve specific needs.
