Tips to Optimize WordPress Running on Dedicated Server – Reduce the Database Server’s burden

 

In case of a dedicated server, the database server is actually running on the same physical server and using the same physical resource. MySQL has gone away, 508 resource limit reached messages are quite common due to increased number of plugins which are eating up the php memory. In case of a Dedicated Server, you frankly can not increase the php memory after a limit, which a Cloud Server easily can do as the cloud server’s RAM and Bandwidth is virtually not limiting.

These happens probably due to the fact, all the plugins try to use wp-cron.php or other same core file simultaneously. To avoid it, use database cache plugin plus reduce the number of not-so-needed plugins. If you need to reduce a plugin, which is SEO wise harmful – try to increase the php memory.

Tips to Optimize WordPress Running on Dedicated Server

Frankly, there is no meaning to use a dedicated server for a WordPress blog now. Cloud Server and cloud Hosting from Rackspace or other reliable hosting brands not only reduces the cost, but also gives the pay as you go model, ensuring that your WordPress will never be short of Physical RAM or Bandwidth.

Dedicated server is probably a good option where a bit more security is needed – our usual blogs has nothing to hide, all pages are actually public; but still for a secure server, one must think of a colocation server rather than a dedicated server.

Also, a Virtual Dedicated Server is a very good cheaper alternative, sometimes a VPS can outperform a Dedicated Server at the same cost or less.
