: One domain name - two servers? I am launching a website now and my boss has bought a hosting service in one webservice company, but they don't support what I need, then we bought another

I am launching a website now and my boss has bought a hosting service in one webservice company, but they don't support what I need, then we bought another one where we get the support that we need. Now my question is:

If I go to test.com (e.g.), the website from the first webserver appears. But I also use this domain name in the last new server also. I want that if I go to the url, the website should appear which I run on the second server, not the one which is on the first server.

What should I do?

The best way to tackle this is going to your domain cPanel, change the name servers of your domain to your new hosting provider and wait for it to propergate. It might take some good time like 72 hours to complete where by in that time, your domain will be accesses on two servers not until you its fully propergated. Its time mattering otherwise everything will be okay.

Are you wanting to just use the new server from now on, and stop using old one? If so, you need to update your DNS records at your domain name registrar.

You'll point them at the new server's nameserver (which you can get from your new host, they'll probably be something like ns1.newhost.com and ns2.newhost.com).
