Hosting that I
personally recommend
"Below are few hosting companies that I personally recommend. I insist
that you research their web hosting services first and compare with
other host before you decide to sign up. Ask yourself. What the few
main requirements that you are looking for in a host and decide carefully by
comparing the features, price and most importantly, hosting support" -
HostPulse.com Founder, Terence L
|
ServerDispatch.com - Price starts at US$159 per month. Generous amount
of hard disk space, control panel features, bandwidth, memory size. The
company offers good server management system. Please research before
purchasing.
|
WebsiteSource.com - One of the good
VPS plans I
have tried and tested.
|
ExaBytes.com - One of the many hosting
companies in Asia that is worth
researching. One of my hosting plans had its server changed frequently which
I thought there has been interruptions, but service is still available while
under maintenance.
|
IpowerWeb.com - Recently, one of the
host that we have
pleasant dealing with. Hosting is affordable, but features may be
limited.
|
|
SingleHop Dedicated
Servers - In the year of 2008, I highly rate this company as one of the
very best dedicated hosting companies around. Technical support staff has
been friendly and it is easy to reach the management if there are any
unsolved problems.

UDDI / Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration
UUDI is an XML-based registry for businesses worldwide to list themselves on the Internet. Its ultimate goal is to streamline online transactions by enabling companies to find one another on the Web and make their systems interoperable for e-commerce. UDDI is often compared to a telephone book's white, yellow, and green pages. The project allows businesses to list themselves by name, product, location, or the Web services they offer.
UDP / User Datagram Protocol
The Internet standard protocol for sending datagrams between user programs. This protocol neither guarantees delivery nor does it require a connection. As a result it is lightweight and efficient, but all error processing and retransmission must be taken care of by the application program. This protocol is built on top of IP and uses IP for datagram delivery (see TCP/IP).
UIML / User Interface Markup Language
UIML is a descriptive language that lets you create a Web page that can be sent to any kind of interface device.
UIML is an application of the Extensible Markup Language (XML). One can think of it as the XML description that describes the data structure (names of fields or elements) of a user interface.
Unicode
Unicode is an entirely new idea in setting up binary codes for text or script characters. Officially called the Unicode Worldwide Character Standard, it is a system for "the interchange, processing, and display of the written texts of the diverse languages of the modern world." It also supports many classical and historical texts in a number of languages.
Unix
An operating system, the inspiration behind much modern software and the code on which the Internet was originally built. Invented by Ken Thompson at AT&T's Bell Labs in 1969, the original purpose of Unix was apparently to provide a way for its author to play games on his computer. It quickly turned into an enormously powerful and secure system capable of supporting big networks, and is now used by everyone from small academic institutions to huge ISPS.
Unix / Linux Hosting
Unix or Linux hosting defines the services of housing, serving, and maintaining files for one or more Web sites on Unix or Linux web server at high speed Internet connection.
Upload
To transfer information from a local computer to a remote one, such as a Web server, across a network or modem connection.
URI / Uniform Resource Identifier
To paraphrase the World Wide Web Consortium, Internet space is inhabited by many points of content. A URI is the way you identify any of those points of content. The most common form of URI is the Web page address, which is a particular form or subset of URI called a URL.
URL / Uniform Resource Locator
An address widget that identifies a document or resource on the WWW.
URL-minder
URL-minder is an agent or robot that notifies you when a particular Web page has changed.
URN / Uniform Resource Name
A URN is an Internet resource with a name that has persistent significance - that is, the user of the URN can expect that someone else (or a program) will be able to find the resource. A URN looks something like a Web page address or URL.
Usenet
Where newsgroups live. At the end of the 20th century Usenet was home to over 30,000 of the these discussion groups, each dedicated to a specific topic and each containing a bewildering range of conversations.
Username
A unique name or identification assigned to a user of a computer system. Sometimes used synonymously with address.
Uuencode
A technique for encoding binary files and messages into a form that can be sent via e-mail.
