We’ve launched a new dedicated server line based on Intel Xeon Scalable processors, the successor to the Xeon E5 family. These are the most powerful bare metal servers we’ve offered.
What’s available
Base configurations start at 20 cores with 192 GB DDR4 RAM and at least one 1.92 TB enterprise Samsung SSD. From there you can scale up:
- Up to 384 GB RAM for large databases and in-memory workloads
- Up to 8x 3.84 TB Samsung SSDs in RAID for high-capacity storage
- Xeon Silver or Xeon Gold SKUs depending on your core count and clock speed requirements
- Dual 10G network connections included on every Xeon Scalable server
The dual 10G networking gives you one port for public internet traffic and one for private network traffic (storage, VM migration, inter-server communication). Combined, that’s up to 20 Gbps of bandwidth between your dedicated servers.
Who these are for
Xeon Scalable dedicated servers are aimed at workloads that need serious resources:
- Running your own virtualization platform (KVM, Proxmox, VMware) with many VMs
- Container hosts (Docker, Kubernetes) that need lots of cores and RAM
- Large databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis) that benefit from fast storage and large memory
- Hadoop, Elasticsearch, and other data processing platforms
- In-house cloud computing platforms
- High-traffic applications where VPS hosting isn’t enough
How it compares to VPS hosting
A VPS shares a hypervisor with other tenants. A dedicated server gives you the entire physical machine. You get full access to the hardware, no noisy neighbors, and complete control over when you reboot and patch. For workloads that need predictable performance and large resource allocations, bare metal is the way to go.
