How can I shape server traffic on a "Maximum Trafic" model (dedicated hosting plan)? OK. I'm looking at purchasing a dedicated hosting plan with a local provider. This provider offers 2000GB traffic into and out of the server. What I want to do is shape traffic into the server based on how much traffic I have left. Example: I start off with a budget of 2000GB a month (66GB/day). This comes down to about 6Mb/s continual use. Of course, servers aren't continually used like this, so just "capping" bandwidth to 6Mb/s would waste bandwidth on spikes. After half a month has gone by, I've only used 500GB of my bandwidth, leaving 1500GB/Month, or 100GB a day. Traffic can now flow at 9Mb/s and I won't go over. I want a system that allows me to use as much traffic as my "budget" will currently allow. Extra points if I can "borrow" bandwidth from the future to help "pay" for spikes. I want "always on" while keeping under my bandwidth budget. Any ideas?

How do database servers work? Hi, I tried to read about databases, but I didn't find it much help. How can a server like Apache(running on your computer) still work when you shutdown? Can other computers still recieve that information when your server/computer is shutdown? Would the database work? Would I need to buy a server dedicated to that? or contact web host that sells server space? is that the better option? Woah, that is a lot of questions. I guess I'll need to read a whole lot more about databases. I just usually give up because I don't understand how a database can still work if the server is down, especially if the server is running on my computer. Maybe I got it wrong and they just install Apache to test if the database works. Please help!
