Windows Web Servers Are Better Than Unix
Windows Server is optimized for high
bandwidth networks like FWHN. Its intelligent caching, reductions in
interrupts, and improved file-sharing code have resulted in up to 66%
higher network throughput than UNIX servers. Tests which
measure how fast multiple users can read and write files from a server to
an Internet user consistently demonstrate that Windows NT Server is
able to maintain and increase performance under increasingly heavy loads.
Because it is designed to be a multipurpose,
extensible operating system, Windows NT Server has always been, and
will always be, built with these very real business considerations in
mind. It is intended to offer the most versatile, cost-effective choice
for Web developers. Windows NT Server 4.0 delivers on that promise
today, and it is guaranteed that
FWHN and Microsoft will exceed that
promise tomorrow.
FWHN hosts Web sites by utilizing Microsoft Windows
NT Server 4.0 and Microsoft Internet Information Server 4.0, which is
simply the best Internet server system. By pairing the power of
FWHN Microsoft NT servers with the features of FrontPage, your Web site reaches
its full potential, and is delivered to the Internet exactly as it was
designed. No UNIX server can compete with the speed and
functionality of the total Microsoft solution.
In addition to having full extensions capabilities,
you will be able to publish your Web site by using the FrontPage
publishing feature. Publishing a Web site has never been easier than
with Microsoft FrontPage and FWHN!
FWHN provides the
complete Microsoft NT Hosting Solution.
According to PC Magazine, Microsoft Windows NT
Server 4.0 with IIS 4.0 provides the highest level of
performance when compared to other Web servers on the market.
And FWHN has been hosting Web Sites on NT
Servers longer than any other major hosting company. You
simply cannot buy a better solution for hosting your Web site!
A review in the June 1999 issue of PC Magazine®
shows that Window NT Server is significantly faster as a Web
server for serving dynamic content. Since Windows NT Server 4.0
with Internet Information Server (IIS) provides a highly
optimized Web server API, Windows NT Server 4.0 performs up
to 650 percent faster than Linux with the Apache Web
server (under dynamic loads!).

A report conducted last year proves that NT 4.0/IIS 4.0 serves Web sites up
to four times faster than a Solaris (UNIX platform)/Apache
Server.
