The FreeBSD platform is based on the BSD system, which is one of the many Unix variants. Similar to Linux, FreeBDS offer cost efficiency as an open-source system. Extremely well integrated, this platform is well known for its speed and stability, making it an excellent choice for mission-critical operations. FreeBSD is becoming increasingly popular and offers support for a growing number of technologies.
Often regarded as the main competitor to Linux, Windows is the server version of the popular Microsoft desktop operating system. Upon first entering the server environment, these platforms were powered by systems like Windows NT and 2000. Most plans now are based on either Windows 2003 or 2008. What makes this system so popular is the user-friendly interface that gives IT teams a familiar environment to work with. Not only is it supported by a large number of applications, but also Microsoft technologies that were specifically designed to work with the platform. Some of the main selling points of Windows hosting include ASP or ASP.NET programing, the SQL Server and other services like Exchange and SharePoint.
