Perbandingan -- web hosting control panels

Web hosting control panel
A control panel, in web hosting, is a web-based interface provided by the hosting company that allows customers to manage their various hosted services in a single place.
Some of the commonly available modules in most control panels:

• Access to server logs.
• Details of available and used webspace and bandwidth.
• Email account configuration.
• Maintaining FTP users’ accounts.
• Managing database.
• Visitor statistics using web log analysis software.
• Web-based file manager.

Remote access

Some control panels allow shell (console) access to the underlying OS through a Java applet, requiring that the client-side computer use Java Virtual Machine software. Other control panels allow direct access using telnet or secure shell (SSH).

Third party modules

Web hosting packages often provide easy means of installing web services onto the server. Packaging services allow the control panel to fetch a list of installable modules from the internet, whilst hard-coded methods require that the control panel is updated to add new modules.
