Dedicated Servers
Dedicated Servers is in terms of internet hosting, when the client leases and entire server, without sharing it, this type of hosting gives the client more flexibility, allowing full control of the server, including choice of operating system, hardware, etc.
Sometimes the server administration is provided by the hosting company, as well as support for the operating system or aplications of the server.
Allthough Dedicated Servers are scalable, they can't scale up with the ease and speed in which Clustered Servers can. But this is not necessarily a disadvantage, because the client own the server they can decide with concrete numbers how much space and memory they want to have in the server, with the certainty that no one else will use it.
