Dedicated Servers: The whole machine, nobody else on it.

Soon

Ryzen bare metal inside the filtered network.

Coming soon: every core, all the memory and the full disk throughput to yourself — no neighbours, no steal time, no shared IO queue. The machine sits inside our filtered network from the moment it powers on, so there is no tunnel to configure and no origin address anyone can reach around.

02What you get

What single-tenant actually buys you

The differences between a large VPS and bare metal only show up under sustained load — which is exactly when they matter.

No neighbours

Every cycle is yours. No steal time, no other tenant's backup job competing for disk, no noisy-neighbour incidents to diagnose.

NVMe RAID

Two NVMe drives in RAID 1 on every configuration, so a disk failure is an inconvenience rather than a restore from backup.

IPMI and out-of-band

Console access independent of the operating system. Reinstall, boot to rescue or watch the machine POST without opening a ticket.

Filtering on every port

L3/L4 protection across all ports and protocols, including UDP — filtered, not null-routed the moment an attack starts.

Up to 10 Gbit/s

1 Gbit/s on the smaller configurations, 10 Gbit/s on the Ryzen 9 — unmetered, with attack traffic billed like any other traffic.

Consumer Ryzen, on purpose

High clock speeds beat core count for game servers, voice and anything single-threaded — which is most of what people actually run.

03Dedicated Servers

When bare metal is worth it over a large VPS.

A big VPS is cheaper and easier, and for most workloads it is the right answer. These are the cases where the difference is real rather than theoretical.

  1. 01Sustained high CPU, where steal time on a shared host shows up as lag
  2. 02Databases and IO-heavy work that suffer from a shared disk queue
  3. 03Game and voice servers where tick-rate consistency is the product
  4. 04Virtualising further yourself, which needs the hardware to be yours
  5. 05Compliance or contractual requirements for single-tenant hardware

04Dedicated Servers

Not on sale yet — deliberately.

We would rather show the configurations and let you register interest than take orders with a delivery date we would have to apologise for.

  1. 01No deposit and no pre-order queue
  2. 02Prices are indicative until launch, with no attack surcharge
  3. 03Websites and APIs can be protected today, without waiting for hardware
  4. 04Tell us the workload and we will say whether bare metal is worth it for you

05Questions

Before you ask

Something else? Talk to us.

Nothing is shared. On a VPS your cores and memory are reserved but the physical machine is not yours — the disk queue and the network card are shared. On bare metal there is no other tenant to contend with at all.

Clock speed. Game servers, voice and most application workloads are limited by single-thread performance rather than core count, and a 4.9 GHz Ryzen 9 beats a much more expensive server chip at those. If you genuinely need many cores, tell us and we will talk about it.

Yes, on every configuration. Console, power control, rescue boot and reinstall without a ticket.

Yes, on every port and protocol, on every configuration. It is not a paid add-on and not something you switch on after an incident.

Two NVMe drives in RAID 1 on every configuration. You can rebuild them differently at install time if you would rather have the capacity than the redundancy.

Bare metal is racked and installed rather than spun up, so expect hours rather than minutes. We will give you a real time when you order rather than an optimistic one.

That is planned: if you have one and can authorise us to announce it, you will be able to use it. Otherwise addresses come from our range.

The concepts behind this.

Protection

What is DDoS-protected hosting?

DDoS-protected hosting puts filtering in front of your server by default. How it differs from adding protection later, and what to check before buying.

Network & delivery

Layer 3/4 vs Layer 7 protection: what is the difference?

Layer 3/4 filters packets; Layer 7 understands HTTP requests. Which you need depends on whether you protect a website or a game server, mail host or VPN.

Protection

DDoS protection for game servers

Game servers need UDP filtering, low latency and a hidden origin — three things a normal web proxy cannot provide. What to look for and what to avoid.

Protection

What is remote DDoS protection?

Remote DDoS protection filters attacks on servers you host elsewhere. Reverse proxy, GRE tunnel and BGP compared, with MTU maths and questions to ask.
