Server Updation, a term heard quite often, be it during the Mobile Telecom Service Provider's GPRS woes or a hosting service's unavailability. I have a general idea of what might be going behind the scene, but could anybody elaborate on the exact technicalities involved in such an intricate process. Explanations pertaining to our own Astahost would be even more helpful.

though i am not much techie, according to me server upgradation includes many things like ,upgrading the server for a larger memory ,or a better ram ,it migh also include scanning with antivirus or also mean upgrading the cpanel,php or mysql versions and many other similar softwares used for hosting
