The maximum number of listeners is the second most important feature of a radio server The maximum number of listeners that they can listen to your broadcast simultaneously, non-stop, 24 hours a day,is also an important feature ofradio servers. The importance of this feature stems from the fact that the maximum amount of listeners which configured to your radio server, is continually maximum of users that can simultaneously listen to the radio broadcast. For example, if a server was configured for broadcasting 100 listeners, it can not broadcast 150 listeners. The 101 listener will have to 'stand in line', until another listener disconnects from the server and only then he can connect and listen to the broadcast, so it is very important to characterize the maximum amount of simultaneous listeners before purchase. There is always...

Backup and Recovery Options Another important feature is the backup services which available to your dedicated server! Backup is the process of creating copies of the data and information stored on means for information storage (hard drive, server backups, data cards, etc ...) for data recovery and file cases of crashes and system failures. The main goal of the backup and restore is the data recovery after a system's crash. The backup system must have at least one copy of all important data at any given time. The backup management is often very complex due to the variety of options and methods of back up process. A reliable backup system which allows recovery of the recent data and files requires large storage resources and a lot of time. The frequency of backup operations depends on the importance and...

Shared bandwidth or dedicated bandwidth (guaranteed) Bandwidth determines the broadcast quality and the amount of the maximum listeners that can listen simultaneously. Bandwidth calculation is done by multiplying the broadcast quality with the maximum amount of listeners. For example,thebroadcast quality of radio servers isin 64kbps to 10 users simultaneously requires 640 kbps bandwidth, ie 0.64mbps of bandwidth. Shared bandwidth ​​(best effort) is the affordable solution for radio broadcast technology via the Internet, and is suitable for broadcasting to medium amount of listeners in a medium broadcast quality. The disadvantage of this configuration is that the bandwidth assigned to you is shared with other customers, and has a direct impact on the consumption of resources. Although the above disadvantage, it is convenient...
