What is a Mesh Host?

I went to GoDaddy.com for hosting. They have menus like 1) website hosting 2) network hosting

what's the difference between them. I am new to this hosting and webapps stuff.

Grid hosting usually means that the web space you rent is not on a single (potentially shared) machine, but more like a "virtual machine" (VMware think) that is hosted on a cluster of servers (grid).

Although resources on one machine are limited and may run out, especially if it is a shared host and you have to share your resources (memory, bandwidth) with potential hundreds or thousands of other users who are hosted on the same machine as you, mesh hosting. more flexible as your virtual website can use resources from more machines in the cluster as needed. This, of course, also improves the reliability of the website, as one node grid failure doesn't matter, the other server takes over, and your dedicated or shared host failure disables your website.

I would assume they refer to a single machine as "website hosting".



Update

GoDaddy has FAQs about their network hosting, which should answer any additional questions you might have.

Answer from Godaddy support:



Note that for an unlimited number of compute cycles for the site server, not the database.

From wikipedia: Grid Computing | Cloud Computing . I haven't seen "grid hosting" as a common phrase, but one of the previous two concepts could be used to host a website in a scalable manner.

However, if godaddy offers "grid hosting," I suspect they are offering grid computing for you in a way that has nothing to do with hosting the website. They offer to sell you large amounts of processor power with low communication requirements, as opposed to selling your web host, which is usually a high communication requirement with low processing requirements (relative to each other, of course).
