Access to a dedicated server is via the Internet, so its use requires a reliable connection and a sufficiently large bandwidth. This is the main factor to consider when relying on a provider, who will only be responsible for the data center's exposure to the network and not for the actual reception of data.
Companies can then use managed servers to deploy their applications, leaving the hardware maintenance and repair operations, as well as its physical protection, to the supplier.
A hosted server typically guarantees levels of reliability and operational continuity that are impossible to achieve for any company that does not have its own equipped data center. The combination of infrastructure, IT skills, and resource redundancy translates into uptime close to 100%, while the risk of losing data due to physical causes is almost zero.
